Excess Fat

In Honolulu, Hawaii

What Causes Excess Fat?

Excess fat can accumulate in the body due to a combination of factors, including poor diet, lack of physical activity, and genetics. Consuming more calories than the body burns leads to fat storage, especially in areas such as the abdomen, thighs, and hips. Hormonal imbalances, such as those caused by stress or conditions like hypothyroidism, can also contribute to fat retention. Additionally, aging slows down metabolism, making it harder to burn fat. Environmental factors and lifestyle choices, such as high levels of stress or inadequate sleep, further contribute to weight gain.

Why You Should Treat Excess Fat

Treating excess fat is important for both aesthetic and health reasons. Visceral fat, which surrounds internal organs, increases the risk of serious health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, fatty liver, and stroke. Excess fat can also lead to joint pain, reduced mobility, and lower energy levels. On a personal level, reducing fat can improve self-confidence and body image. Taking action to manage fat can enhance overall well-being, promoting a healthier and more active lifestyle.

How to Treat Excess Fat with Emsculpt NEO and Semaglutide

Emsculpt NEO combines fat reduction and muscle toning through advanced HIFEM (high-intensity focused electromagnetic) energy and radiofrequency technologies. This noninvasive procedure eliminates fat cells and strengthens muscles, resulting in a slimmer and more toned appearance. For patients seeking weight management, Semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, can be used as an injectable treatment to help regulate appetite and promote weight loss. When combined, Emsculpt NEO and Semaglutide offer a powerful approach to fat reduction by targeting both body composition and metabolic processes. Together, they provide sustainable, long-term fat loss with proper lifestyle adjustments.
