In our latest episode of IGTV, Business Director, Vanessa Grutman, connected with our Clinical Lead and Body Treatment Specialist, Stephanie Hewitt, to discuss our comprehensive body solutions at Project Skin MD, what they target, how they work and what to expect from your treatment.

Thermage® CPT
What it targets: skin laxity and texture concerns on the face, neck, arms, abdomen, buttocks and thighs.
How it works: Thermage uses radio-frequency energy and Comfort Pulse Technology (CPT) to target deep within the skin’s collagen layer to promote a rebuilding and remodeling of collagen fibres.
What to expect: During your 1 to 2 hour treatment, you will likely feel heat in the treatment area, however your provider will work with you to manage any discomfort. Thermage® requires no downtime, and you will see results unfold over 3 to 6 months, as newly stimulated collagen naturally firms and tightens the skin.
CoolSculpting®
What it targets: unwanted fat pockets anywhere from the region below the chin, above the knees and everywhere in between!
How it works: CoolSculpting uses an innovative cooling process, called cryolipolysis, to gently target and freeze away fat cells for good. At Project Skin MD, we have numerous different applicators to effectively target a wide range of treatment areas on the body.
What to expect: Depending on the area(s) being treated, your treatment may vary in length from 1 hour to most of the day. The good news is you just need to sit back and relax – we will provide the pillows and Netflix! While you will likely feel cold in the treatment area, the area typically becomes numb within a few minutes of beginning your treatment. There is no downtime post-treatment, and your body will naturally eliminate the treated cells to contour the treatment area within the first month following your treatment.
EMSculpt®
What is targets: the tone and shape of the numerous areas of the body including the stomach, buttocks, biceps, triceps and calves.
How it works: EMSculpt uses high-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM®) technology to simultaneously build lean muscle and burn fat. It stimulates powerful contractions – not achievable through exercise alone.
What to expect: Each 30-minute treatment induces 20,000 muscle contractions in the treatment area, stimulating all the muscles in the region whether it be on the arms, legs, abdomen, or buttocks. We recommend 4 to 6 30-minute treatments scheduled 2-3 days apart, after which you will immediately begin to feel tangible results. There is no downtime and results start to appear 2-4 weeks after your final treatment session.
