UltraSlim at Bariatric Medicine Institute in Flourtown, PA, uses advanced red-light photobiomodulation to shrink fat cells without the need for surgery, needles, or recovery time. During a typical 32-minute session, the specialized light penetrates the skin to trigger fat cells into releasing their contents, which are then flushed out through the body's natural elimination processes. The average person loses more than 2 inches on the 1st session! - there is a 2 in guarantee for 1st treatment! This treatment is ideal for individuals who are close to their ideal body weight but want to fine-tune areas like the abdomen, thighs, and flanks. With no discomfort, bruising, or downtime, UltraSlim offers a safe, fast-acting solution for achieving a leaner, more contoured figure.
UltraSlim results can last long-term with proper maintenance. The fat cells themselves aren’t destroyed but are emptied of their contents, meaning that if you maintain a healthy diet and active lifestyle, results can be sustained indefinitely. However, poor lifestyle habits can lead to fat accumulation in the same areas again, so consistency is key.
No, UltraSlim is not designed for total body weight loss. It’s a body contouring treatment that helps reduce inches in stubborn fat zones. It works best for people who are already close to their desired weight but need help targeting areas that haven’t responded to diet and exercise. It’s a complementary tool, not a replacement for weight loss programs.
UltraSlim sessions are completely comfortable and feel like lying under a gentle warming light. There’s no pulling, cold, heat, or discomfort at any point. Many patients find the experience relaxing enough to nap during treatment. Once the session is over, you can return to work, exercise, or other daily activities immediately.
Although some patients notice results after just one session, most people benefit from a series of about 6 treatments spaced over several weeks. The ideal number of sessions varies depending on your goals, starting measurements, and how your body responds. During your consultation, your provider will create a customized plan tailored to your desired outcome.
