Shu Cosmetic Surgery of Minneapolis Offers Complimentary VISIA Skin Complexion Analysis

Posted on by

Starting this month, Shu Cosmetic Surgery, the premiere Cosmetic Surgeon for Laser Liposuction of Minneapolis, will be offering complimentary VISIA complexion analyses for facial rejuvenation and skin care.

Edina, MN (August 2012) – True to its commitment to providing state-of-the-art cosmetic treatments, Shu Cosmetic Surgery Institute who is know for Liposuction procedures in Minneapolis, became the first cosmetic clinic to offer skin complexion analysis with the newest (6th) generation VISIA, a method of facial rejuvenation planning tailored to a patient’s complexion profile. Starting this month, patients will receive an initial VISIA analysis report as their baseline and additional complimentary reports throughout their treatment programs.

VISIA imaging and analysis provides you and your skin care professional with the comprehensive data needed for a solid rejuvenation plan to tackle your complexion requirements or problems. An invaluable aid in monitoring your complexion’s vitality, VISIA checks the overall effectiveness of your skin care regimen over time and helps create and execute goals for your skin.

“This analysis should be the first step in achieving optimal skin renewal and is truly the individualized care needed to maintain your complexion’s most radiant health,” said clinic esthetician Sonya Stelmachuk.

VISIA analysis works by using a multi-spectral imaging and analysis to capture key visual information on eight areas affecting complexion health and appearance: spots, wrinkles, color variation in the skin tone, pores, sun damage, subsurface pigmentation, vascular conditions, and porphyrins (evidence of bacteria in pores). Your characteristics are then compared to others of your same age and skin type.

“We use this comprehensive information to plan the most optimal treatments and regimens for you, and you will receive a summary report providing a clear overview of your facial skin condition with our recommendations,” said Katie McClellan, PA-C.

Body Jet Liposuction Procedure in Minneapolis

Posted on by

Many people struggle to improve their body shape through diet and exercise; however, diet and exercise alone may not be enough to eliminate fatty areas in certain parts of the body. Some of the most common areas that contain stubborn fat include the hips, buttocks, thighs, and abdomen. Liposuction is a common procedure in Minneapolis that removes the stubborn fat cells that diet and exercise cannot.

Some traditional liposuction techniques can leave patients feeling sore and swollen for days or weeks after the procedure. An innovative technique called H20-Lipo uses a water-based removal method called the Body Jet liposuction system to remove fat cells effectively leaving the body looking leaner. The Body Jet liposuction system gently removes fat by isolating the fatty deposits from the tissue to prevent any potential damage to the nearby muscles or nerves.

Traditional methods of liposuction use a tube to remove the fatty cells by aggressively suctioning it out. This method often causes a significant amount of swelling and bruising leaving patients feeling sore and tired afterwards. The Body Jet liposuction system permanently reduces the amount of fat cells that is stored using a safer, gentler approach. In addition, it encourages the skin to tighten up and become firmer while permanently eliminating fat cells to leave the body smoother and more solid after the procedure.

The liposuction procedure that utilizes the Body-Jet system allows patients to undergo liposuction in Minneapolis quickly and with little medical risk. There is no anesthesia or sedation used and patients can return to their regular daily activities immediately following the procedure. Treatment on each area of the body can take 30 to 45 minutes.

Good candidates for the Body Jet liposuction system in Minneapolis include those with firm, flexible skin who experience stubborn pockets of fat that do not go away with regular diet and exercise. Candidates for liposuction should also be in good health and at an average weight for their body type. It is not intended to replace diet and exercise and should not be used as a weight loss method.

Before choosing liposuction in Minneapolis, it’s important to recognize your reasons for going through with the procedure. Liposuction is not a miracle cure for weight reduction and it won’t give you the perfect body. It can however, contour your shape and create a better silhouette and appearance for some of your trouble areas.

Hi-def liposuction in Minneapolis is a new and advanced procedure recommended for patients who already have a decent level of fitness. It can target fat tissue that won’t dissipate from regular exercise and a healthy diet. Hi-def liposuction seeks out the fat which adheres directly to the muscle. Removing some of this fat will greatly increase the visibility of muscles, and the natural contours of your body will be highlighted and exposed.

f you’ve ever wanted a sleek and athletic body, this procedure may be for you. It can be frustrating to spend countless hours at the gym, while adhering to strict diets and routines, only to end up with lackluster results. No matter how hard we work, our bodies will only look a certain way. You won’t necessarily have the ab and thigh muscles of another girl, because her body is different. Everyone’s bone structure is also unique. It may not be possible to sculpt a new waist to hip ratio, but with hi-def liposuction, creating a more refined body is assured.

Though hi-def liposuction can provide great results for many people, the procedure is not for everyone. Those with excessive skin caused by a high volume of weight-loss, will not benefit from the procedure until their skin is more taught. Those with severe skin laxity, stretch marks and a high body fat percentage, should also abstain from the procedure.

After undergoing hi-def liposuction, the patient has a relatively low recovery time. Patients can resume typical activities after only a few days, but it’s advisable to abstain from regular exercise for about a month. Though results can be seen immediately, the full effects of the surgery will be visible after the swelling has completely dissipated.
