Body Sculpting
Body sculpting at Adela Medical Spa offers a nonsurgical way to target stubborn fat, improve skin firmness, and reduce the appearance of cellulite. We use BodyFX technology to treat areas such as the abdomen, thighs, arms, and flanks.
Every treatment plan begins with a personal consultation. Our provider will discuss your goals, evaluate the treatment area, and explain what results you may realistically expect.
About Body Fx
What Is BodyFX Body Sculpting?
BodyFX combines radiofrequency energy, controlled heat, and vacuum-assisted technology. The treatment is designed to address localized fat, loose-looking skin, and visible cellulite without surgery.
BodyFX is not a weight-loss treatment. It may be a good option for people who are near their goal weight but want to improve specific areas that have not responded to diet and exercise.
What to Expect Before, During, and After BodyFX
What to Expect Before BodyFX
Your first appointment will include a consultation. We will discuss your health history, medications, treatment goals, and expectations.
Before treatment, you may be asked to:
Stay well hydrated
Avoid tanning or excessive sun exposure
Avoid applying lotions or oils to the treatment area
Tell your provider about medications and medical conditions
Follow any personal instructions provided by the clinical team
What to Expect During BodyFX
A BodyFX session may take approximately 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas treated.
You may feel warmth, pressure, and gentle suction as the device moves across the skin. The treatment should feel tolerable, but you should tell your provider if you experience significant discomfort.
What to Expect After BodyFX
Most clients can return to normal daily activities after treatment. Temporary redness, warmth, tenderness, bruising, or swelling may occur.
Results usually develop gradually. Your provider will explain the recommended treatment schedule and when you may begin noticing changes.
Benefits of BodyFX Body Sculpting

How Does BodyFX Work?
During treatment, BodyFX delivers controlled radiofrequency energy beneath the skin. This heat targets fat cells while supporting collagen and elastin production.
The device also uses gentle suction to draw tissue closer to the energy source. This allows the provider to treat the selected area in a controlled and consistent way.
Over time, the body processes the affected fat cells. Collagen production may also help the skin appear firmer and smoother.
