If you want to get swimsuit slim but don't have but a few days to do it, there's a new and improved method that can get you results in one day.
Getting swimsuit ready is a difficult task for women. From Tyra Banks to Jennifer Love Hewitt to this woman who will remain anonymous.
“Walking down to the beach I've thought jiggley and unsightly and uncomfortable.”
And that's why her swimsuit is still in hiding.
“When I see it hanging up, then I try it on, it's like you know no I can't go there.”
She admits eating better and exercising would help. But if you are willing to shell out some cash, Mountain Brook plastic surgeon Dr. Susan Collawn says you can walk in with cellulite and walk out ready for the beach.
“You'll see some immediate tightening. There are two problems: fat and loose skin, and if you have to address both, Thermage does both,” said Collawn.
Dr. Collawn says the improved Thermage melts the fat and tightens the skin without causing any bruising or cutting. During the procedure you'll endure a heating and cooling sensation from a little magic wand.
“It's instant, and it improves over the next few months because then you develop collagen where you had heat injury,” said Collawn.
Loose skin and cellulite around the thigh and hip area are the culprits that bring our patient to Dr. Collawn.
“The skin is a little saggy. There's cellulite, just wears and tears with old age. It's the least favorite part on my body,” said the patient.
And after her procedure, tighter firmer skin, something our patient says she's going to work at to keep.
“I'm going to try to diet. I'm not going to diet but be careful about what I eat to keep my weight stable,” said the patient.
