Body treatments are where marketing runs furthest ahead of evidence. Fat can be frozen or dissolved, skin can be tightened modestly, hair and ink can be removed, and each of those has a real result with real limits. At Rejuvenation Dermatology Calgary South, Dr. Paul Kuzel, a board-certified dermatologist, assesses every patient, says plainly what a treatment will and will not do, and performs or supervises every procedure.
Fat, skin, and what grows on or in the skin. Each is a different tissue and a different device, and none of them is a substitute for the others.
For a pocket of fat that diet and exercise do not shift, there are non-surgical answers. The consultation is about which, and whether it is worth it.
Controlled cooling that destroys about a fifth to a quarter of the fat cells in the treated area per session. No downtime; results over three months.
CoolSculptingWhat each option removes, how many sessions, and who each suits.
Non-surgical fat treatmentsFat removed under local anaesthetic in the clinic. The largest change in one session, with a week of compression.
Tumescent liposuctionCollagen-stimulating filler injected to add shape and lift to the buttocks without surgery or fat transfer. A course of sessions; results build over months.
Liquid butt liftCoolSculpting or Belkyra injection, chosen by the amount of fat and the skin over it.
Double chin removalWhy some fat resists diet and exercise, and which treatments address it.
Stubborn fatEnergy delivered to the dermis contracts and rebuilds collagen. The result is gradual and modest, and it suits mild laxity rather than heavy sagging.
Thermage FLX and Fotona for mild laxity of the abdomen, arms, thighs and knees. One to a few sessions; results over six months.
Skin tighteningFractional laser and RF microneedling for crepe, stretch marks and texture on the chest, arms and abdomen.
Skin resurfacingWhat tightening can and cannot do, and when a surgeon is the honest answer.
Skin laxityTwo of the most reliable results in the clinic, provided the laser is matched to the skin.
GentleMax Pro Plus with alexandrite and Nd:YAG, so every skin type is treated on the right wavelength. Six to eight sessions.
Laser hair removalBack, chest, neck and beard shaping, with settings for coarse, dense hair.
Laser hair removal for menPicoWay across three wavelengths for black, blue, green and red ink. A course of sessions eight weeks apart.
Tattoo removalLaser hair removal is the definitive treatment for recurrent ingrown hairs on the beard, neck and bikini line.
Laser hair removalThicker skin, coarser hair, different patterns of ageing. The same devices, different settings and different goals.
The gap between what a body device promises and what it delivers is wider than anywhere else in aesthetics. A physician who has no stake in the machine closes that gap.
Body treatments start with a consultation, because the first question is whether the treatment will do what you want.
Body contouring, tightening, tattoo removal and cosmetic hair removal are not covered by Alberta Health Care. Each is priced by area and by session and quoted at consultation.
Assessment of a medical condition, such as folliculitis or recurrent boils, is covered with a referral from your family physician, and some laser hair removal for medical indications may be.

No. It removes a fifth to a quarter of the fat cells in a treated pocket and reshapes a contour. It does not change your weight, and it works best on a stable weight.

It is long-term. A course of six to eight sessions removes most hair in the area for years, with occasional maintenance for the fine regrowth that hormones drive.
Yes, on the right wavelength. Nd:YAG is used for hair removal and vessels in darker skin, and PicoWay for tattoos. Dr. Kuzel sets every treatment for the skin type.
No. Non-surgical tightening gives a modest improvement in mild laxity. Heavy or loose skin needs a surgeon, and Dr. Kuzel says so.
Usually six to twelve, eight weeks apart, depending on the ink colours, depth and age of the tattoo. Amateur and faded tattoos clear fastest.
Temporary numbness, bruising and tenderness are common. Rarely, the treated fat enlarges instead of shrinking, which is recognised at follow-up and managed. Candidacy assessment reduces the risk.
Dr. Paul Kuzel, MD FRCPC, a board-certified dermatologist and the founder and Medical Director of Rejuvenation Dermatology Calgary South, assesses every patient and performs or directly supervises every treatment. He sees patients in English and Czech.
