Clinical Insight
Body Treatments, Clinically Addressed
What are the main differences between non-surgical and surgical body treatments?
Non-surgical treatments such as CoolSculpting®, Endolift®, and Thermage® target fat or skin laxity without incisions or downtime. Surgical options like BodyTite™, liposuction, or abdominoplasty achieve more dramatic reshaping but require recovery and anaesthesia.
How many sessions are needed for visible results?
Most non-invasive treatments require a course of three to six sessions, depending on the technology used and the area treated. Surgical options typically need only one procedure, followed by a structured recovery plan.
Is there any downtime with non-surgical procedures?
Most patients experience minimal to no downtime, with mild redness or swelling that resolves within hours to days. Compression garments may be advised after Endolift® or BodyTite™ for best results.
Are the results permanent?
Once fat cells are destroyed or removed, they do not return. However, ageing and lifestyle factors can affect skin tone and shape over time, so maintenance sessions may be recommended.
Can treatments be combined?
Yes. At Cranley Clinic, our practitioners often combine Endolift® with Thermage® or Sclerotherapy with ND:YAG for a more comprehensive rejuvenation outcome.
How performs the treatments?
All procedures are carried out by consultant-led clinicians or senior aesthetic practitioners, ensuring that each treatment plan is both medically safe and individually optimised.
