Non-Invasive Fat Reduction at Manhattan Aesthetics
SculpSure® is the revolutionary new, non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment targeting fat in areas of the body that are resistant to diet and exercising. The procedure is painless and uses laser energy to treat 24% of fat cells in just 25-minutes. While results are noticeable sooner, over a period of 4-6 weeks the body will naturally release these fat cells through the lymphatic system.
At Manhattan Aesthetics of New York, we offer SculpSure®, a cutting-edge, non-invasive body contouring treatment designed to reduce stubborn fat without surgery or downtime. If you maintain a healthy lifestyle but struggle with fat pockets that won’t budge through diet and exercise alone, SculpSure® may be the solution you’ve been looking for.
Conveniently located in Midtown, our expert providers use advanced laser technology to help patients achieve a slimmer, more sculpted appearance—safely and effectively.
What is SculpSure®?
SculpSure® is an FDA-cleared, non-surgical fat reduction treatment that uses controlled laser energy to target and destroy fat cells beneath the skin. Unlike invasive procedures such as liposuction, SculpSure® requires no incisions, anesthesia, or recovery time.
The treatment works by heating fat cells to a temperature that damages their structure while protecting the surrounding skin and tissue. Then, over the following weeks, your body naturally eliminates the destroyed fat cells through the lymphatic system.
How Does SculpSure® Work?
Laser energy is used to effectively target the fat cells located beneath the skin without damaging the surrounding tissue. SculpSure increases the temperature of the fat cells to damage their structural integrity. Over a 4-6 week period, the dead fat cells are naturally metabolized resulting in a slimmer, more contoured figure.
SculpSure® treatments at Manhattan Aesthetics are fast, comfortable, and highly precise.
Here’s how the process works:
- Laser applicators are placed on the targeted treatment area
- Controlled heat selectively targets fat cells beneath the skin
- Fat cells are damaged without harming surrounding tissue
- The body gradually metabolizes and removes the treated fat cells
- Results develop naturally over 4-12 weeks
Each session lasts approximately 25 minutes, making it easy to fit into a busy New York City lifestyle.

Popular treatment areas include:
- Abdomen
- Love handles (flanks)
- Back and bra fat
- Inner and outer thighs
- Submental area (under the chin)
- Banana Rolls (below the buttocks)
Your provider will customize your treatment plan based on your body type and aesthetic goals.
How many SculpSure® Treatment Sessions Do I Need?
Most patients at Manhattan Aesthetics in New York City need 1 to 2 SculpSure® treatments, spaced about six weeks apart, to achieve optimal results. Some patients are satisfied after a single session, while others may require additional treatments depending on their fat thickness, the area being treated and personal goals.
Each SculpSure® session can target and reduce up to 24% of fat cells in the treated area. During your consultation, our expert providers will evaluate your body, discuss your aesthetic goals, and create a personalized treatment plan designed to maximize your results safely and effectively.
Spacing treatments approximately six weeks apart allows your body to naturally eliminate the treated fat cells before the next session, helping you achieve gradual, natural-looking fat reduction and a more contoured physique. With a tailored plan, Manhattan patients can enjoy noticeable improvements while keeping their busy schedules on track.
Am I A Good Candidate for SculpSure®?
SculpSure® can be beneficial for both patients who are looking to jump-start their weight loss goals and those who are ready to contour their final figure. The procedure is entirely non-invasive making it a safe option for just about any patient who’d like a slimmer physique. You may be a good fit for treatment if you have isolated pockets of fat that aren’t responding to traditional diet or exercise. Patients should be within 30-pounds of their ideal weight before considering SculpSure®. During your initial consultation, your SculpSure® provider will be able to assess your concerns and customize a treatment plan to effectively meet your end-goals.
You may be a good candidate if you:
- Are within 30 pounds of your ideal weight
- Maintain a healthy diet and exercise routine
- Have isolated fat pockets resistant to lifestyle changes
- Want non-surgical body sculpting
- Prefer minimal disruption to your schedule
During your consultation at Manhattan Aesthetics, we will determine if SculpSure® is right for you.
What to Expect During Treatment
SculpSure® treatments are designed with patient comfort in mind.
During your session:
- You may feel a warming or tingling sensation
- The treatment alternates between heating and cooling
- No anesthesia or numbing is required
- You can relax, read, or scroll on your phone
Patients can return to work or daily activities immediately after their appointment.
What Our Clients Are Saying
"Yesterday I tried Thermiaesthetic which is ThermiSmooth Skin Tightening. I ran over on my lunch break and LoLa who was the Esthetician couldn’t have been nicer! She rubbed a ton of gel on my lower face and neck with my clothes covered with towels then came the funny device. I was nervous as she said I might be a little red after, but I wasn’t at all! The treatment itself was pleasant and I almost fell asleep I was so relaxed! Then the gel was cleaned off about 25 minutes later and then I was good to go! I went back to the office and they were none the wiser! My skin already looks tighter although she recommended another couple of treatments. Which at the price point is affordable. If you need a little lift with no down time I can’t recommend it enough! Plus everyone at Manhattan Aesthetics was delightful!"*
~ Jeanna
"My experience getting SculpSure at Manhattan Aesthetics was top of the line. The people there are incredibly friendly and the office is spotless and gorgeous. The process of SculpSure is much more efficient than Cool Sculpting, it is less painful and takes less time. I was targeting my abs and as mentioned, the first 5 minutes is challenging but once I was acclimated to the heating and cooling sensations (plus my tech did massage my legs during) it was easy and I was done in 25 minutes. Afterward there was no pain or redness so I decided to do more applicators on my lower back (love handles). The follow up is to simply massage the area twice a day and drink lots of water. It is non-invasive and though I just had it done yesterday, I literally have NO after pain and I am excited to see the results! Five stars for a great experience at Manhattan Aesthetics."*
~ Hedy M
"I had coolsculpting last year and never got much of a result so decided to try sculpsure at Manhattan Aesthetics. I did 8 applicators targeting my abdomen and love handles. Layla my technician warned me the first 4 minutes would be uncomfortable so she distracted me by keeping me company and massaging my leg. After this it was it was easy, painless and actually kind of fun. I have to say the procedure was dramatically faster and less painful than coolsculpting and saw an incredible result. The best part was no downtime whatsoever-the next day I did feel sore like I did an intense ab workout. Definitely better than liposuction-sculpsure 5 stars Layla 5 stars Manhattan Aesthetics 5 stars"*
~ Karen K
"I am totally addicted to Manhattan Aesthetics! Chelsea and Craig are so pleasant, kind and helpful. It’s always so nice to see them. The space is gorgeous. Both Lola and Natalie are great!! I couldn’t be happier with the first procedure I have received from Lola. Results were visible weeks before the suggested 6 week mark. I am currently undergoing the ThermiSmooth and will have to wait out the results but I will come back to update. I want to try the microneedling and photofacial next. I am addicted to Manhattan Aesthetics and the wonderful staff here. I came in through a groupon offer and I have no intentions of straying."*
~ Maria M
"I am absolutely happy with the service I received at Manhattan Aesthetics. Everyone there is super nice, very friendly. Their office is pretty nice and clean. They have these candles at the front desk that smell fantastic and the melody makes you feel relaxed. I definitely recommend this place to anyone."*
~ B Jacquez
"My experience was nothing short of amazing! the entire staff, specifically Craig, Chelsey and Natalie could not have been more informative, helpful and caring! I learned the hard way that body contouring does in fact work after a long painful expensive bout with coolsculpting at skinney medspa. I then purchased the 4 applicator special at Manhattan Aesthetics for the sculpSURE laser. After 3-4 weeks my flanks were dramatically less bulky with a very noticeable definition. I have since treated my inner thighs and outer thighs. Everything about my experience and the procedure has been phenomenal!"*
~ Julia L
"Manhattan Aesthetics is 5 stars the knowledge of the staff is second to none and I could not be happier with my results. I was referred by a friend and have done both sculpsure and trusculpt and am extremely pleased with the result. Natalie was unbelievable in recommending the best possible treatment to ensure I not only lost my stomach but tightened the skin as well. Chelsea is amazing and went above and beyond to accommodate my schedule and make sure I was seen without a wait."*

SculpSure® vs Other Body Contouring Options
With so many body contouring treatments available, it’s important to understand how SculpSure® compares to other popular fat reduction and body sculpting options. At Manhattan Aesthetics, we help patients in New York City choose the treatment that best aligns with their goals, lifestyle, and comfort level.
SculpSure® vs. Liposuction
Liposuction is a surgical procedure designed to remove large volumes of fat, but it comes with significant downtime and recovery.
SculpSure® offers several advantages over liposuction:
- Non-surgical with no incisions or anesthesia
- No downtime or recovery period
- Lower risk of complications
- Gradual, natural-looking results
- Ideal for stubborn fat pockets rather than overall weight loss
While liposuction may be appropriate for patients seeking dramatic fat removal, SculpSure® is a safer, more convenient option for body contouring without surgery.
SculpSure® vs. CoolSculpting®
CoolSculpting® uses controlled cooling to freeze and destroy fat cells, whereas SculpSure® relies on laser-based heat technology.
Key differences include:
- SculpSure® uses heat instead of freezing
- Treatments are typically faster (about 25 minutes per area)
- No suction is required, which many patients find more comfortable
- Applicators contour naturally to the body
- Multiple areas can often be treated at once
- No Risk of PAH or Nerve Damage (serious side effects associated with CoolSculpting®)
Many patients in Manhattan prefer SculpSure® for its comfort, efficiency, and streamlined treatment experience.
SculpSure® vs. Emsculpt® / Emsculpt NEO®
Emsculpt® and Emsculpt NEO® focus on building muscle and, in the case of NEO, burning fat through electromagnetic energy.
How SculpSure® differs:
- SculpSure® directly targets and destroys fat cells
- Best for isolated fat reduction rather than muscle toning
- Ideal for refining areas resistant to exercise
- Can complement muscle-building treatments
For patients looking primarily to reduce fat, SculpSure® often delivers more targeted results.
SculpSure® vs. Injectable Fat Reduction
Injectable fat-dissolving treatments typically require multiple sessions and injections.
SculpSure® advantages include:
- Needle-free and non-invasive
- No swelling or injection-related discomfort
- Shorter treatment times
- More uniform fat reduction across larger areas
Patients seeking a comfortable, non-invasive alternative often prefer SculpSure® for body contouring.
