How to Get Rid of Love Handles

Posted on February 1, 2016 by: Dr. Rocheford

Rocheford-How to Get Rid of Love HandlesHave you ever wondered why love handles earned their name in the first place? After all, there’s nothing to love about the pockets of stubborn fat that cling to your waistline and hips, making it difficult for you to find jeans that fit. “Love” isn’t the first word that comes to mind when you try to ignore how your love handles look in a bathing suit.

And you certainly don’t “love” the way they make you feel about your body!

Ready to get rid of your so-called “love” handles once and for all? Then it’s time to discover BodyFX and MiniFX body contouring treatments at Rocheford Plastic Surgery in Woodbury, MN today.

What are BodyFX and MiniFX?

Owned and operated by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Heather Rocheford, Rocheford Plastic Surgery (serving the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro area) is now home to these two innovative fat reduction treatments. Each non-invasive treatment is the ultimate response to cellulite, body contouring, and uneven fat irregularities – including love handles.

BodyFX and MiniFX (used for smaller treatment areas like the armpits and chin) work by utilizing radiofrequency energy to provide optimal heating of the skin, as well as negative pressure massage to allow for maximum depth treatment. This heat penetrates through the skin layers to promote significant skin tightening, which reduces the dimply appearance of cellulite. Additionally, skin tightening results in body contouring, as the tighter skin reduces the volume size of the treatment area.

The end result is younger, tighter-looking skin with sizeable inch reduction. To see the best results from your BodyFX or MiniFX treatment, you may need to undergo up to six to eight treatments.

In some cases, surgical treatments represent the best approach to effective contouring of love handles. In these cases, Dr. Rocheford recommends that patients undergo traditional liposuction under general anesthesia. During this outpatient surgery, Dr. Rocheford makes a small incision to the treatment area and uses a small tube to suction out the fat deposits.
