What Can Ultimate Contour Treat?

Ultimate Contour is designed to sculpt and refine various areas of the body, making it an excellent option for the following:

  • Circumference reduction, targeting stubborn fat in the abdomen and thighs
  • Cellulite smoothing to reduce the appearance of dimpled skin
  • Skin tightening and toning of the arms, abdomen, flanks, hips, thighs, and calves

While Ultimate Contour is a powerful body contouring treatment, it is not intended for weight loss. It works best as a complement to a healthy lifestyle, enhancing the results of diet and exercise.

Is Ultimate Contour Right for You?

If you're looking to reduce stubborn fat, smooth cellulite, or improve skin laxity without surgery, Ultimate Contour may be the perfect solution. This non-invasive treatment is ideal for individuals in San Francisco or Marin County who want to refine areas like the abdomen, thighs, or flanks with minimal downtime. It is particularly beneficial for those who maintain a healthy lifestyle but struggle with localized fat that doesn’t respond to diet and exercise. FDA-cleared for abdominal circumference reduction in individuals with a BMI of 25 or greater, Ultimate Contour offers a safe and effective way to enhance your body contours. If you're in good overall health and seeking a non-surgical alternative to traditional fat reduction methods, this treatment may be right for you.

Preparing for Your Treatment

To ensure the best possible results from your Ultimate Contour session in Marin County at HVME, follow these simple guidelines:

  • Drink plenty of water the day before and the morning of your appointment to support the body’s natural metabolic processes.
  • Refrain from eating a heavy meal at least two hours before your session, as pressure will be applied to the abdominal area for 20 to 40 minutes.
  • Reduce alcohol intake 48 hours before treatment to optimize the body's ability to break down fat during the lipolysis process.
  • Wear loose-fitting, comfortable clothing to ensure ease during your session.

Is There Any Downtime or Post-Treatment Care?

Most patients experience little to no downtime after Ultimate Contour, making it an easy treatment to fit into a busy schedule. You may notice mild redness or tenderness in the treated area, but these effects generally fade within a few hours. 

  • Avoid eating large meals for at least two hours after treatment to allow your body to continue processing the broken-down fat cells.
  • Refrain from intense heat exposure, such as saunas or hot showers, until any redness or tenderness fully subsides.

Additional pre- and post-care tips. 

When Will the Results Become Visible?

Results from Ultimate Contour can appear as soon as your first session, particularly for fat reduction. Some patients notice a visible reduction in waist circumference—up to an inch—immediately after treatment. However, it typically takes six to eight weeks for the body to fully metabolize the destroyed fat cells and reveal the final results.

Improvements in skin tightening and cellulite reduction take longer as the body naturally produces new collagen and elastin. Most patients see noticeable changes after about a month or more, with continued improvements over time. Multiple treatments are generally recommended to achieve optimal body contouring results.

How Long Do the Results Last?

The results of skin tightening and cellulite reduction typically last six to twelve months, depending on your body’s natural aging process and lifestyle habits. For fat reduction, treated fat cells are permanently removed, but maintaining the results depends on a balanced diet and regular exercise. Some patients opt for maintenance treatments once or twice a year to preserve their best results. Your practitioner will help you develop a long-term plan that aligns with your goals.

How Many Sessions Are Needed?

While some results are visible after one treatment, the best outcomes typically require a series of three to six sessions spaced about one to two weeks apart. This allows for gradual yet noticeable improvements in fat reduction, skin tightening, and cellulite smoothing.

Can Ultimate Contour Be Used as Part of a Combo Treatment?

Yes! Ultimate Contour works well in combination with other body contouring procedures, such as Emsculpt (for muscle toning) and CoolSculpting Elite (for additional fat reduction). By combining treatments, we can help you achieve enhanced, longer-lasting results in a shorter time frame. During your complimentary consultation, our expert practitioners will review your treatment options and create a customized therapy plan tailored specifically to your body goals.

What’s the Science Behind Ultimate Contour?

Fat Reduction

Ultimate Contour utilizes a process called lipolysis, a natural chemical reaction that breaks down fats and lipids, allowing the body to gradually eliminate stubborn fat deposits. The treatment uses low-frequency ultrasound, which sends controlled vibrations deep into the fat layer, disrupting the fat cell membranes and causing them to break apart. Once ruptured, the released fat contents are naturally metabolized and removed by the body’s lymphatic system over time.

Skin Tightening

For skin tightening and cellulite reduction, Ultimate Contour harnesses radiofrequency (RF) energy, which penetrates deep into the collagen-rich layers of the skin. This controlled heat causes collagen fibers to contract, stimulating new collagen and elastin production. As a result, skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more youthful. When targeting cellulite, radiofrequency energy tightens the underlying tissue and increases blood circulation, helping to reduce dimpling and uneven skin texture over time.

Precision Treatment

Unlike some other fat-reduction treatments, low-frequency ultrasound disrupts fat cells without excessive heat, allowing for more precise targeting and minimal discomfort. When combined with radiofrequency, this dual-action treatment not only reduces fat but also improves skin tone, texture, and elasticity, delivering a comprehensive body contouring solution.
