What is Body Contouring?
Body contouring refers to a collection of non-surgical treatments designed to reshape and enhance the body’s appearance. These procedures target areas of stubborn fat, sagging skin, or lack of muscle definition that can resist even the most disciplined diet and exercise routines. Treatments like CoolSculpting, CoolTone, Ultherapy, and Kybella utilize advanced technology to reduce fat, tighten skin, or stimulate muscle growth – providing noticeable improvements that blend seamlessly with your natural physique.
What Does Body Contouring Address?
Including:
- Stubborn Fat – Areas like the abdomen, flanks, thighs, under the chin, and upper arms.
- Loose or Sagging Skin – Skin laxity on the face, neck, décolletage, and body.
- Muscle Definition – Enhancing and firming the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs.
- Asymmetry or Irregularities – Improving balance and shape in areas like the breasts or chin.

Am I a Candidate for Body Contouring?
Body contouring treatments are ideal for individuals who are close to their desired weight but have specific areas of stubborn fat, loose skin, or lack of muscle tone. Ideal candidates are:
- Generally healthy and at a stable weight.
- Looking for non-surgical fat reduction or skin tightening.
- Interested in enhancing muscle definition without downtime.
These treatments are not designed for major weight loss but rather for refining and sculpting the body. A consultation will help determine which body contouring treatment aligns with your goals.
CoolTone™
CoolTone is a noninvasive body contouring treatment that uses Magnetic Muscle Stimulation (MMS) technology to strengthen, tone, and firm the muscles of the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs. CoolTone’s powerful MMS technology penetrates below the fat layer to strengthen and tone muscle. After this treatment of body contouring Coeur d’Alene & Sandpoint patients will notice that the muscles in the abs, glutes, or thighs will be firmer and have a more toned appearance.
Ultherapy®
Ultherapy uses time-tested ultrasound energy to lift and tighten the skin naturally, without surgery or downtime. It is the only noninvasive procedure FDA cleared to lift skin on the neck, under the chin and on the eyebrow, and is one of the best body contouring treatments available without surgery. Now FDA cleared to improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles on the décolletage.
Kybella®
Kybella is the only FDA approved injectable treatment that destroys fat cells in the treatment area under the chin to improve your profile. It is individually tailored to treat moderate to severe fat below the chin, also called submental fat.
Nova Threads®
Nova Threads are dissolvable PDO surgical sutures used in cardiothoracic surgery. They are used in anti-aging to tighten skin, restore the v-shape of the face and can even provide a lift. They are one of the safest materials to be implanted in the body, and Nova Threads will fully absorb in 4 to 6 months and will not leave any scar tissue. They can be used safely all over the body and are made in the USA, with the highest quality standard for manufacture and sterilization
PRP Breastlift®
PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Breastlift is a natural alternative that can correct irregularities and asymmetry, enhance cleavage, and improve sensation. This great body contouring procedure has boosted the confidence levels of thousands of women who wanted to overcome unnatural shaping and skin laxity of their breasts.
Body Contouring Results
Patients typically see noticeable improvements within a few weeks of treatment, with optimal results developing over 2 to 3 months. CoolSculpting can reduce up to 25% of fat in targeted areas, while CoolTone provides enhanced muscle tone after a series of sessions. Ultherapy results develop gradually as collagen production increases, offering a natural, refreshed appearance.
Recovery and Aftercare
One of the key advantages of body contouring treatments is the minimal to no downtime. Most patients can return to normal activities immediately after their sessions. Here’s what to expect post-treatment:
- Mild Redness or Swelling – Temporary, usually resolving within a few hours to days.
- Gradual Results – Changes appear progressively as the body eliminates fat cells or collagen regenerates.
- Follow-Up Treatments – Some patients benefit from multiple sessions to achieve their desired outcome.
Avoid intense exercise for 24 to 48 hours after muscle-stimulating treatments like CoolTone, but otherwise, there are few restrictions.
