Concern
Stubborn fat
Pockets of fat that ignore diet and training can be treated with heat, light, or injection, matched to the area and your timeline.

How we think about it
Some fat does not respond to diet or training. The lower abdomen, flanks, inner thighs, and under the chin hold fat cells that are stubborn by design, and once you reach adulthood the number of those cells stays fairly fixed. Losing weight shrinks them. It does not necessarily remove them from the area you care about.
Non-surgical fat reduction works by damaging fat cells with heat, light, or a dissolving agent so the body clears them over the following weeks. Emsculpt Neo heats fat while building muscle. Laser lipo targets fat with light. Kybella is injected under the chin. Dr. Olivo matches the method to the area, the thickness of the fat, and your timeline.

Stubborn fat, answered
Is this weight loss?
No. Body contouring treats a specific pocket of fat. It suits people close to their goal weight. If weight itself is the issue, Dr. Olivo may discuss medical weight management first.
How long until I see a change?
Fat clearance is gradual. Most people notice change over the weeks after a series rather than the day after a session.
