Many people struggle with stubborn fat that just won’t budge, no matter how much they diet or exercise. A common misconception is that we can permanently reduce the number of fat cells in our body—when in reality, the number of fat cells remains consistent from birth. Instead of eliminating fat cells, our bodies simply cause them to shrink or expand in size depending on weight gain or loss.
Fortunately, advanced non-invasive treatments like Venus Legacy can help target and shrink fat cells, reducing overall circumference and improving skin tightness. If you’re looking for a safe, effective body-contouring treatment, MiraMed and Day Spa in Santa Barbara offers Venus Legacy to help you achieve a slimmer, more sculpted appearance.
Do Fat Cells Ever Go Away? The Truth About Fat Storage
The number of fat cells in your body is largely determined by childhood and adolescence. Once we reach adulthood, our bodies stop producing new fat cells under normal conditions. However, these existing fat cells can expand or shrink based on how much fat they store.
- Weight Gain: Fat cells increase in size as they store excess fat.
- Weight Loss: Fat cells shrink when the body uses stored fat for energy.
- Stubborn Areas: Some areas, like the abdomen, thighs, and arms, hold onto fat more stubbornly due to genetic and hormonal factors.
This is why many people find it difficult to lose weight in specific areas—even with a healthy lifestyle. Venus Legacy helps by targeting these stubborn fat deposits and encouraging fat cell shrinkage through radiofrequency and pulsed electromagnetic fields.
How Venus Legacy Works to Reduce Fat Cell Size
Venus Legacy is a non-invasive body contouring and skin tightening treatment that uses Multi-Polar Radio Frequency and Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields to heat the underlying tissues. This process triggers several beneficial effects:
Fat Reduction: The deep heating effect increases blood circulation and encourages the breakdown of fat cells, causing them to shrink. Collagen Stimulation: The treatment boosts collagen and elastin production, improving skin tightness and elasticity. Lymphatic Drainage: Enhanced circulation helps flush out toxins and metabolic waste, further reducing puffiness and bloating. Cellulite Reduction: The technology smooths out dimples and uneven skin texture.
The result? A slimmer, more sculpted appearance with firmer, tighter skin.
