Understanding the Science Behind PHYSIQ Body Contouring

SureMED Aesthetics • May 30, 2024

Embarking on a journey to enhance your physical well-being is an exciting venture, but it's equally important to understand the science behind the treatments you choose. Today, we dive into one of the most popular treatments at SureMED Aesthetics — PHYSIQ Body Contouring.


Defining PHYSIQ Body Contouring


PHYSIQ is a cutting-edge, non-surgical system for body contouring — a treatment designed to sculpt your body into your dream shape. It specifically targets stubborn areas of your body that are resistant to diet and exercise. This innovative technology provides a customizable treatment experience that fits perfectly with your aesthetic goals.


The Science of PHYSIQ: the STEP Technology


PHYSIQ employs a unique technology known as Sequential Thermal & Electrical Pulse (STEP). This technology is a unique pairing of deep heat and electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) designed to target fat cells and muscles effectively.


Deep Heat


PHYSIQ uses a specially developed modality to deliver controlled, consistent deep heat to the target tissues, promoting the natural process of lipolysis — the breakdown of fat cells.


The heat generated by the system raises the temperature within the fat cells, causing them to release fatty acids into the bloodstream and lymphatic system. The body then naturally eliminates these fatty acids, resulting in a decreased volume of fat in the targeted area.


Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS)


While the deep heat targets the fat cells, the EMS aspect of the STEP technology kicks in to target the muscles in the treated area. EMS involves the use of electrical pulses to stimulate muscle contractions, similar to what happens during a workout.


These electrical pulses stimulate the muscles, leading to increased muscle tone and definition. With PHYSIQ, this process is automated, and the body responds as though it has been exercising, which contributes significantly to the sculpted look achieved by the treatment.


The PHYSIQ Treatment Process


During a PHYSIQ treatment session, you'll comfortably lie down while up to four applicators are strategically placed on your body. These applicators are custom-tailored to your unique body shape and desired results — allowing multiple areas to be addressed during one session.


Throughout the 30-minute treatment, you'll feel a gentle warming sensation as the controlled heat penetrates your fat cells, followed by a series of muscle contractions as the electrical stimulation takes effect.


It's essential to understand that PHYSIQ is not a weight loss treatment but an effective body contouring method. It works best when combined with a healthy lifestyle of regular exercise and a balanced diet.


The Results


PHYSIQ treatments are tailored to your unique body shape and desired results. You'll begin to see improvements as early as two weeks after the first session, with the most visible results usually seen 8-10 weeks after the last session.


Ideal Candidates for PHYSIQ Body Contouring


PHYSIQ is an excellent treatment for those who have stubborn pockets of fat that aren't responding to diet and exercise. It's an ideal non-invasive alternative to surgical procedures for those who wish to avoid the risks and downtime associated with surgery.
