Nowadays, it’s no longer surprising to learn that men are just as conscious about their appearance as women. Some would argue that men are more health-conscious than women. This is why SculpSure body contouring treatment is just as popular with men as it is with women.
What is SculpSure body contouring?
In a nutshell, SculpSure is a laser device that melts away stubborn fat in the abdomen, flanks, inner and outer thighs, and back. SculpSure body contouring is a procedure that helps individuals, both men, and women, achieve a more toned physique and a slimmer, sexier, silhouette.
This is good news for men who are fit and healthy, and within 10 to 20 pounds of their target weight but can’t seem to get rid of those stubborn fats on the abdomen, flanks, and love handles, in other words. With this body contouring technique, which usually lasts only about 25 minutes per session, you can finally get that more sculpted physique without surgery, downtime, or recovery period required.
And to prevent love handles from developing again, here are a few tips:
1. Stay off added sugar
Added sugars are not the natural sugar found in fruits and other whole foods (unrefined, unprocessed). These are sugars added to processed foods to enhance their flavor. Sweets like candies, cookies, and chocolates, sodas, and fruit-flavored beverages all have added sugar. These sugars accumulate in the midsection, which includes the flanks.
2. Avoid stress
Stress doesn’t only make you crave comfort foods, which are usually junk foods that give you an instant sugar rush, but it also increases your cortisol levels. Cortisol is a hormone that helps you cope with stress, which is why it’s known as a stress hormone; and numerous studies have linked increased cortisol levels to weight gain as it increases your appetite and also sends a signal to the body to store fat.
3. Get a good night’s rest
Your body needs to rest to replenish and re-energize. Lack of sleep also increases your cortisol levels, which has a direct impact on your health, as mentioned above. Studies found that people who slept less than five hours per night weighed more than those who had uninterrupted sleep of about seven to eight hours per night. The same studies also discovered that excess weight usually accumulated in the midsection.
Once you’ve successfully gotten rid of your love handles through SculpSure body contouring, the key now is to keep the fats away from the treated areas. Understand that while SculpSure eliminates melted fat cells for good, there is always the risk of a new buildup of fats so it’s best to take the necessary steps to keep these fats at bay.
