Stubborn fat that won't budge despite your best diet and exercise efforts can be permanently reduced with body sculpting treatments. At Advantage Primary Care in Richmond, we use advanced Alma Accent Prime technology to target problem areas like your abdomen, thighs, arms, and chin, helping you achieve the contoured shape you've been working toward.
Body sculpting is a non-invasive treatment that permanently eliminates stubborn fat cells in targeted areas of your body. Using advanced technology, body sculpting delivers controlled energy beneath your skin to damage and destroy fat cells that your body then naturally processes and removes over the following weeks. Unlike diet and exercise, where you can't control which fat disappears first, body sculpting lets you target specific problem areas like your abdomen, thighs, arms, or love handles for precise contouring and shaping.
Permanently eliminate stubborn fat cells - Body contouring destroys targeted fat cells that are then naturally processed and removed by your body, creating lasting results in areas that resist traditional weight loss efforts.
Target your specific problem areas - Unlike dieting, where you can't control which fat disappears first, body sculpting lets you choose exactly where you want fat reduction, whether that's your belly, love handles, thighs, or under your chin.
Non-invasive with zero downtime - No surgery, no incisions, no anesthesia, and no recovery time means you can return to work and normal activities immediately after your treatment session.
See results that keep improving - You'll notice changes after your first session, with continued improvement over the following weeks as your body naturally processes destroyed fat cells through your lymphatic system.
Complement your healthy lifestyle - Body sculpting isn't a weight loss solution but rather a contouring tool that enhances the results you've already achieved through diet and exercise by refining stubborn areas.
Safe and FDA-cleared technology - Our Alma Accent Prime system combines ultrasound and radiofrequency energy with built-in safety features that protect your skin while effectively targeting deeper fat layers.
Treat multiple areas in one visit - Save time by addressing several problem areas during the same appointment, from your abdomen and flanks to your thighs and upper arms.
Long-lasting body contouring results - Once fat cells are destroyed and removed, they won't regenerate, meaning your improved contours are permanent as long as you maintain your weight.
Advanced Alma Accent Prime technology - We invest in the most effective body sculpting system available, combining ultrasound with radiofrequency energy to deliver superior fat reduction results that other treatments can't match.
Experienced aesthetic providers - Our medical team has extensive training in body contouring techniques and creates personalized treatment plans based on your specific problem areas, body type, and aesthetic goals.
Comprehensive treatment areas - We can target stubborn fat beneath your chin, on your abdomen, back, upper thighs, upper arms, buttocks, hips, and bra line to create balanced, natural-looking results.
Comfortable treatment experience - Our system includes safety features that keep your skin surface comfortable while deeper tissue receives therapeutic heat, making treatments relaxing rather than uncomfortable.
Convenient Richmond location - We regularly see patients throughout Richmond, Glen Allen, Midlothian, Short Pump, Henrico, and Chesterfield County.

Body sculpting uses controlled heat from ultrasound and radiofrequency energy to damage targeted fat cells, causing them to rupture and release stored fat. Your lymphatic system then naturally processes and removes the cell debris and fat, permanently reducing the treated area.
No, most patients find body sculpting comfortable and even relaxing. You'll feel warmth during treatment, but the device maintains your skin surface at a comfortable temperature while deeper layers receive therapeutic heat.
Most people benefit from a series of treatments spaced over several weeks for optimal results. The exact number depends on your problem areas, the amount of fat present, and your aesthetic goals, which we'll discuss during your consultation.
You'll begin noticing changes after just one session, with continued improvement over the following weeks as your body processes destroyed fat cells. Final results typically appear 8-12 weeks after completing your treatment series.
Most patients have no downtime. Body contouring requires no recovery time, so you can return to work, exercise, and all normal activities immediately after treatment. Staying well-hydrated helps your lymphatic system function optimally.
