Dr. Matthew St. Laurent
Eliminate Stubborn Fat and Excess Skin
Dr. St. Laurent Refines the Results of Bariatric Surgery
Dr. St. Laurent introduced aesthetic body contouring to his Houston bariatric surgery office because he wanted to help his patients fully achieve their weight loss goals. No matter how successful a gastric bypass or gastric sleeve surgery is, there is always a chance that stubborn fat deposits will remain in the buttocks, thighs, arms, or abdomen. Plus, patients who rapidly lose a massive amount of weight are likely to have some amount of excess skin. Our non-invasive body contouring procedures can refine the results of bariatric surgery and give our patients the bodies they've always wanted.
Now, we are happy to make our body contouring procedures available to individuals who haven't undergone bariatric surgery. If you have a few problem areas that you wish were a little tighter, you don't have to call a plastic surgeon. Contact our Houston-area practice today and experience the benefits of body contouring without the downtime and potential complications of surgery.
3 Simple Ways to Prepare
The radiofrequency energy from InMode targets water in the cells of the treated area. As a result, you'll want to drink plenty of water before your appointment for maximum results.
Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before your treatment. Alcohol can cause dehydration, which can be worsened after treatment and potentially affect your results.
Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing to your appointment. Each treatment can last around half an hour or more, so you want to be comfortable and relaxed during your procedure.
What to Expect During Your Contouring Procedure
Each patient's cosmetic goals are unique. Your treatment will depend on which areas of the body you wish to tighten and tone. Those wishing to address the jowls may have a shorter treatment plan than those wishing to tighten and tone their abdomen or thighs. However, no matter which area you choose to treat, each InMode procedure is done in-office and requires no downtime. In general, you can expect:

Consultation
First, you will meet with Dr. St. Laurent to review your cosmetic goals. During your consultation, he will develop a treatment plan to target your problem areas and deliver the best results.
Preparation
Dr. St. Laurent will place InMode Evoke or Evolve devices on your designated treatment areas. He will ensure you are in a comfortable position so you can remain relaxed during treatment.
Treatment
Dr. St. Laurent will set the intensity to the appropriate level for your treatment. The procedure should take around half an hour. Some patients bring a book or other activities to keep themselves entertained.
Repeat
Depending on your cosmetic goals, you may need multiple treatment sessions to achieve your desired results.
Our Treatments Have No Recovery Period
While surgical treatments can leave scars and require a recovery period, our InMode body contouring treatments do not. They require no downtime and patients can often continue with their regular activities following treatment. Some things you can do to care for the treatment site after your procedure include:
- Do not wax or exfoliate for about five days
- Do not laser for about three weeks
- Avoid sun exposure and use sunscreen
- Drink plenty of water

Frequently Asked Questions About Body Contouring
What is RF energy and how does it work?
RF energy is the same type of energy we use to transmit messages over the radio, television, and our phones. Over the last 20 years, it has become increasingly popular to use RF energy in skin procedures.
RF works well for skin procedures because it can be used to safely apply heat to deep layers of the skin. This heat initiates collagen production below the skin's surface, which in turn leads to a natural healing response and tightening of the skin.
Is this option better than liposuction or a tummy tuck?
It depends on your body. If you have only a small amount of excess fat or skin, then the nonsurgical procedure is probably preferable to plastic surgeries like liposuction because you can avoid the risks and downtime associated with them.
However, if you have a thicker layer of fat or a large amount of excess skin, then we may recommend visiting a plastic surgeon for a tummy tuck or liposuction procedure. When you meet with our team for a consultation, we will honestly recommend which option is better for you.
Can you receive nonsurgical body contouring after bariatric surgery?
Yes, many patients choose to have nonsurgical body contouring done after undergoing bariatric surgery or other plastic surgery procedures like liposuction. Due to the excess skin that patients may develop as they lose fat, skin tightening procedures can improve their appearance and enhance their bariatric or plastic surgery results.
Is body contouring permanent?
Body contouring can be permanent since the procedure targets and destroys the fat cells in the treated areas; however, new fat tissue can still form at the treatment site, which is why patients must be committed to living a healthy lifestyle before treatment.
How many sessions are required?
For the best results, somewhere between four and eight sessions with InMode Evolve or InMode Evoke are often required. When you meet with our doctor for a consultation, he will probably recommend scheduling weekly visits to our Houston-area practice.
