What is Fun Sculpting?
Modern, HD Liposuction Technology
Fun Sculpting is a safe, modern and minimally invasive fat removal and fat transfer system. This remarkable procedure falls under the category of High Definition Liposuction, and what sets it apart is its gentle and tissue-friendly approach. Unlike other fat removal methods that involve cutting, burning, ripping, freezing, or tearing, Fun Sculpting takes a different route.
This system employs a specialized dull-tipped cannula and the power of infrasonic vibrations to create a harmonic wave. This wave works its magic by safely and permanently dislodging fat cells without harming the surrounding connective tissue, nerves, or blood vessels. The result? A procedure that's both quick and safe, and guess what? It's low on pain, eliminating the need for sedation.
How does it work?

But the benefits don't stop there. FunSculpting technology continues to work its wonders for up to six months after treatment by stimulating collagen production. This not only aids in skin tightening but also enhances the smoothness of your results.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Funsculpting cost? How much does Liposuction cost?
At our Appleton and Brookfield clinics, Funsculpting costs $3,000 for one body area. For example, one area may be belly fat removal, arm fat removal, double chin removal, or thigh fat removal, etc. Adding additional areas drops the price significantly. A Hospital offering traditional Liposuction costs $8,000 and up.
How much fat does liposuction remove? How much fat does Fun Sculpting remove?
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons recommends that no more than 5 liters of fat should be removed per session. That guideline applies to both liposuction and Fun Sculpting.
Is FunSculpting Painful?
Most patients experience mild pain during the procedure but tolerate it well with the help of prescribed medications. The day after FunsSculpting is the hardest as you will be very sore, some describe it as being hit by a Mac Truck. No post procedure narcotics are given nor needed, and patients report sufficient comfort levels with Tylenol. Normal daily activities can be resumed as tolerated, normally a few days after the procedure.
Is FunSculpting Safe?
As an FDA approved device and procedure, any and all complications from Fun Sculpting must be reported to the FDA. To date, there has never been a death, skin necrosis, or embolism from Fun Sculpting.
What Areas Of The Body Can Be Treated with FunSculpting?
Just about every area can be safely treated including abs, flanks, inner/outer thighs, calves, arms, backs, necks, and chins. The system is also routinely used to reduce both male and female breasts.
What Can I Expect?
Before the procedure:
The day of the procedure, your provider will prescribe an anti-anxiety pill, if needed, for anxiety. Otherwise, the procedure is performed in the office with only local anesthesia by a trained, licensed and insured medical provider.
During the procedure:
You will be awake the entire time. You can sleep, read, listen to music, play games on your phone, etc. (although no pictures or videos will be allowed during the procedure). You will feel some gentle pressure, vibration and the occasional pinch, but not pain.
After the procedure:
Immediately following your procedure, you will be able to see your results. Keep in mind, there is a great deal of fluid used during the procedure, so there will be some initial swelling. You will then be dressed in a compression garment. This garment MUST be worn for 24/7 for 2 weeks, and then 12 hours a day for another 4 weeks. This is VITAL in healing and optimizing results!
Since we won't use general anesthesia, you can leave on your own right after the procedure. However, you MUST have someone drive you home due to medications and fluid shifts that occur during the procedure. After you get home, take a rest for a couple of hours because you may feel tired. The next day, you should take a shower and a walk (around 1-2 miles) to help with drainage. The entry points are small (1/4”) and will close naturally within 24 hours, so they don't need stitches. They will be covered with bandages.
How Long Before I See Results?
You will see some results immediately after the procedure. Tightening of the procedure area continues over the next 30 days with about 60% of results being visible within 3 weeks. The skin tightening is natural and permanent (with weight maintenance). In contrast, heat induced skin tightening lasts less than a year.
Some areas will not tighten as much as others, such as arms. This is simply due to gravity. Additionally, when a large volume of fat is removed, the skin may not fully retract, but the skin will tighten up considerably. Clients must wear compression garments as directed to ensure optimal skin tightening. Irregularities in the skin present before the procedure, such as stretch marks or dimpling, will not necessarily be removed through the procedure. However, you will see a generalized improvement in the contour of the treated area.
In the event that a revision needs to be done, the cost will start at $500 per area.
Does The Fat Come Back?
NO! After your Fun Sculpting treatment, the fat cells will never regenerate in the treated area as they are literally no longer in your body. With weight maintenance, the fat removal and skin tightening is permanent. Also, unlike other fat removal procedures, you will not have to have repeated treatments on the same area.

Should I get Funsculpting before, during, or after starting a weight loss plan?
Fun Sculpting is not a weight loss treatment, but it typically works best at the beginning of a weight loss program. In our experience, the removal of excess fat builds tremendous confidence and momentum to set you up for success in a sustained weight loss journey. Fun Sculpting also provides skin tightening to the treatment area, lowering the amount of saggy skin one may experience after significant weight loss. If you have already lost a lot of weight and need to remove excess skin, Fun Sculpting will not help, and we’d be happy to refer you to a plastic surgeon for a tummy tuck.
How does Funsculpting compare to CoolSculpting®, Cryosliming or EMSculpt®?
CoolSculpting®, Cryosliming or EMSculpt® are all external methods of fat reduction that use technology to kill off fat cells slowly over time. They work well, but these options typically require many sessions over several months. Fun Sculpting goes below the skin to remove a much higher amount of stubborn fat cells in 1 session.
When can I resume exercise after Fun Sculpting?
People have varying tolerance for pain and recovery. You can start walking again the day after your procedure, and you can do moderate exercises that don't involve your core after a week.
After one week, your body is ready to ease back into your fitness activities as you can tolerate. Listen to your body and don't overdo it.
