Dr. Roberta Gartside Becomes First Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon in Northern Virginia to Provide Laser Fat Reduction with SculpSure

    RESTON, VA, January 15, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Roberta Gartside has announced that New Image Plastic Surgery Associates will host a product launch event to introduce SculpSure, a new fat melting device, at her Reston office. The event will take place on Tuesday, Jan. 19. There will be a daytime event from noon to 2 p.m. and an evening event from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Due to limited space, anyone interested in attending should RSVP by calling the office.

Patients who attend the launch event can enjoy refreshments while they learn about SculpSure, watch a live demonstration and have a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Gartside. Guests will also be entered in a raffle for a chance to win a free SculpSure session, and all attendees will go home with gift bags.

"I am proud to be the first and only board-certified plastic surgeon in Northern Virginia to offer this exciting procedure," Dr. Gartside said. "SculpSure is going to be a great tool for those pesky love handles and other stubborn fat pockets that are resistant to proper diet and exercise."

Manufactured by Cynosure, SculpSure is the first laser system cleared by the Food and Drug Administration for noninvasively reducing fat in the abdominal area and sides. The technology has a number of benefits, including:

- Treatment only takes 25 minutes
- Multiple parts of the body can be treated simultaneously
- Effective on all skin types
- No downtime required after treatment
- Over 90% of patients satisfied with results

SculpSure treatment is based on controlled hyperthermic injury, or temperature injury, to fat cells. Heating the fat cells with appropriate temperature settings causes injury to the fat cells, and the immune system steps in to clear the body of those cells. Thus, the treated area shrinks.

The skin itself is not damaged, while underlying fat cells are broken apart. Some patients start to see improvement from SculpSure within three weeks, with optimal results by six weeks.
