In part two of our expert panel series we would like to introduce our gu Antonia Maricondaest blogger, Antonia Mariconda, an award winning health and beauty writer, blogger of www.thecosmediccoach.com and founder of a national campaign called Safety in Beauty. We have teamed up with Antonia to give you an expert’s opinion on the best fat reducing treatments. Sometimes even the most dedicated exercise and diet strategy can leave a person feeling deflated and demoralised if the goals are not being achieved, I should know, I used to spend hours doing sit ups every day for 5 years to reduce some stubborn abdominal belly fat after carrying two pregnancies. One day I took it upon myself to find out why it was not shifting, a consultation with a cosmetic Doctor revealed that it was stubborn fat that required a little more help and intervention so I underwent Vaser Liposuction to remove the small area of fat. Since then I have advocated that diet and exercise should always be the primary route to weight loss and healthy living, but if those results are not being met you may also benefit from some assistance in those goals, I have listed two popular treatments for fat reduction below based on consumer feedback and clinical outcomes. Please always seek a reputable provider and an established quality clinic that will guide and advise you every step of the way.  Never choose price over the quality, trust me, quality will always go the distance. Reduce by Vanquish Fat reductionReduce by Vanquish Fat Reduction Reduce by Vanquish is a body contouring procedure, which uses radio-frequency energy to heat and kill fat cells in a non-invasive way. This pain-free treatment promises to reduce fat by effectively heating and killing selective fat cells, thanks to the unique technology. The procedure is virtually painless and requires zero downtime, which is incredibly interesting to many people as recovery is something that not many of us have time to indulge in. Results are typically achieved in four to six treatments of 45-minute. Reduce by Vanquish is ideal for both men and women who are in good shape, within five to ten per cent of their ideal weight and don't want to go through surgery. The treatment is not intended for massive weight loss, but for the reduction of the abdomen from flank to flank. I have seen some excellent results achieved with small targeted stubborn areas of fat. Reduce by Vanquish is a non-invasive, pain-free treatment that effectively shapes the body and tightens the skin with its radio-frequency energy. Even though the procedure is pain free there may be some redness and swelling for the first few days. Vaser Liposuction Vaser Liposuction was designed to selectively remove stubborn fat and help reshape your body to the desired proportions wanted. Vaser Liposuction helps to contract and tighten the skin to sculpt the body. It is gentle to the tissue surrounding treatment areas so as not to cause sagging skin but rather leave a smooth, contoured finish. Vaser Liposuction procedure is typically performed in a reputable clinic with a medically qualified and specially trained Doctor. No general anesthetic or hospital stay is required. It’s a walk-in walk-out procedure and depending on the individual it is usually a one-off treatment. The individual will usually be able to leave the clinic 60-90 minutes after the Vaser Lipo procedure is carried out. Vaser Liposuction can be used to remove fat for both men and women from the abdomen, thighs, upper arms, neck, buttocks, back, flanks and hips. In fact, almost any area of the body with stubborn fat pockets can be reshaped using Vaser Lipo. Just like with other treatments side effects may include swelling and bruising. Some of the risks of Vaser may be loss in skins elasticity, slightly more bleeding and longer healing times which is why extensive aftercare is so important to help reduce the risk of these side effects happening.
