DR.SUTINA "Discovering Beauty with Science"

I have come across many clients who ask me about fat removal and they often confuse this with weightloss. Due to the many marketing ads all around us that offer"slimming" procedures, I find that many women are confused as to wether they want to loose weight or reduce fat. So I categorize clients like this: A. those who are overweight or obese with a BMI (Body Mass Index) of 27 an above. You will need to loose overall weight for a healthier and trimmer looking body. There will be excess fat here and there but it is no use thinking about them when over all you have excess fat including visceral fat. And B. those who are of normal body weight (BMI 25 and below) or just slightly overweight (BMI 25-27) and have certain areas of stubborn fat which do not seem to go away despite exercise or would like a trimmer, better silhuoette. For FAT REDUCTION on the spot , there are several methods to loose them. These can be minimally invasive or non invasive at all. The Non...

AirSculpt ®  is not only a technique, it’s a philosophy. We want to be as minimally invasive as possible. The entire procedure is geared to make healing faster with less bruising and less trauma to the area being treated. That is why we use no needle (who wants a needle stick?), no scalpel, we use a device that makes a circular entry site that is 2mm (smaller than a pencil top eraser) this gives a mark similar to a freckle or natural skin blemish as it heals instead of a line and suture marks which show the world that you had surgery. No stitches – you don’t need them, which means you will not need to get them removed! We leave your entry sites open so that your swelling can drain out of your body so you heal FASTER. No General Anesthesia Most of all, you are awake – we give you medication to calm your nerves, you can have a conversation, talk on the phone or even listen to music during your procedure. General anesthesia has many risks, we want our patients to h...

Recently we had an old patient of mine, SL, a beautiful young model who has landed an acting job which required her to expose her arms and legs. So she wanted them sculpted to slimmer limbs but did not want to undergo any surgery. She wanted something effective and yet not invasive, with little downtime as she still had modeling shoots to go to, and does not require too many visits. I proposed to her Laserlipolisis using my favorite technology of all time - the Smartlipo Laserlipolisis. The Smartlipo laser is from Deka, a prominent laser company based in Florence, Italy. It uses the 1064nm wavelength which is sensitive to water and fat. By using this laser to melt the unwanted fat, turning it into oily discharge instead, making it easy to extract if desired through small incisions on the skin. This is the journey : The Patient SL is a young lady who is of normal weight with some areas of stubborn fat. She works as a model and actress and exposes these areas during work so...
