Sculpt away the Lockdown weight gain 

According to a recent study carried out by Kings College London; 48% of people report putting on weight based during lockdown. With restrictions now lifting, it’s time to think about banishing the COVID weight gain and getting beach body ready. 

For those worried about the extra curves they might have accumulated during the pandemic, Dr. Yusra recommends CoolSculpting® as “a superb, non-invasive option that can be started now, for visible results in time for summer.”

BEFORE & AFTER

CoolSculpting® is the number one cryolipolysis (a non-surgical technology that freezes fat cells) system on the market. It focuses on removing stubborn body fat that tends to be more resistant to traditional weight loss techniques. CoolSculpting® uses cooling to bring down the temperature in the tissues, destroying fat cells in problem areas. The body then disperses these dead cells naturally through the lymphatic system. Once fat cells have been destroyed, they will not grow back. After just one session, the fat in the area treated can be reduced by up to 27%.

Areas that can be treated by CoolSculpting® include: 

  • Abdomen
  • Thighs
  • Back / bra strap areas
  • Chin
  • Flanks/sides
  • Arms
  • Male chest 
  • Buttocks 
  • Knees 

Key differences between CoolSculpting® and traditional weight loss techniques:

  • CoolSculpting® allows you to target individual areas of concern, unlike dieting 
  • CoolSculpting® is especially efficient when it comes to targeting stubborn areas of fat that patients find are often the last to go with diet and exercise 
  • CoolSculpting® is a permanent solution 
The Sculpt Suite at Dr Yusra Clinic

We have recently opened our brand new ‘SculptSuite’ at our newly launched aesthetics wellness clinic in Blundellsands. Our suite, focused on helping clients to enhance their silhouette, is home to one of only 110 CoolSculpting® machines in the country. Clients are treated to a full pampering experience, with their own private bathroom, bathrobes and even Netflix available on flatscreen TV during the treatments. 

Dr. Yusra says “around springtime people are beginning to think about going out and enjoying themselves in the sun. As we look towards a more socially active summer people are conscious of their appearance and want to look their best when they can get out and about. Months of lockdown have taken their toll and many don’t feel as comfortable as they want to. The great thing about CoolSculpting® is that it is a highly effective, non-invasive treatment that allows patients to focus on particular areas of concern.” 

“The amount of sessions needed depends on the person and how much tissue and cutaneous fat needs to be sculpted away. We will only be able to tell you how many sessions you need once we’ve had an initial patient consultation, bespoke to you as an individual. Typically, most patients only need two sessions to accentuate their body shape and remove stubborn pockets of fat. Although the amount of sessions needed depends on the individual, results start to show within six weeks, we advise these are best appreciated around the three month mark.it generally takes two to three months. Those who want to see results by summer should really be thinking about beginning CoolSculpting® now.”

I visited Dr Yusra’s clinic for non surgical rhinoplasty. I was so impressed with the whole experience from start to finish. Dr Yusra and her team were extremely professional, listening to my concerns and what I hoped to achieve from the procedure. I’d like to give a special mention to Lucy who looked after me pre and post treatment, she was so friendly, knowledgeable and made me feel completely at ease. I look forward to my next visit.

September 2023: I’ve been going to Dr Yusra’s clinic for the last nine months and can honestly say the change in my skin is so apparent that people on Teams calls at work tell me I’m glowing. Dr Lauren has been doing my skin treatments since May with Co2 laser (following secret pro with Olivia) and 3 rounds of subcision with skin boosters. Dr Lauren takes time to explain the science behind the treatments before we do them so I have a realistic idea of the healing and results process. Dr Yusra is also always on hand for any queries too and as soon as you enter the Liverpool clinic, you’re given such a warm and friendly greeting by the team. Despite it being far from me, it is without a doubt worth the drive to get high quality results. Update: I've had two sessions of SecretPro with Olivia and can see a huge difference in my skin so far. Olivia is so professional, patient and took the time to go through the process before and after treatment to ensure I was comfortable. Couldn't recommend Olivia and the team at Dr Yusra's enough! Having been to Dr Yusra’s clinic before, I’ve always found them to have a high standard of care. I’ve recently been in contact with Olivia to help me with the next stage of my skin journey and have been so happy with the helpful advice and assistance she’s given me. I decided to start treatment at Dr Yusra’s clinic because the treatments being offered are different to those I’ve seen elsewhere with really impressive results on other patients. I trust I’m in good hands and excited to continue this journey to finally sorting out my skin!!

I had 3 areas of Botox as well as masseter Botox with Dr Emily and she is so lovely, listens to any queries you have (even if you think it’s a silly question) and puts you at ease through your procedure. I have a lot of pain in my jaw when eating and grinding my teeth in my sleep, Dr Emily was able to talk me through the procedure for helping this and since having masseter Botox I haven’t had pain while eating and there’s no pain when I wake up. Would definite recommend the clinic and Dr Emily.

I went to see Dr. Emily for a non-surgical nose job, and I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Dr. Emily was super caring and understanding, and she made me feel totally comfortable. The results are amazing, and I already feel so much more confident. I'd definitely recommend Dr. Emily – she's really awesome at what she does!

I have had treatments from Dr Yusra and team over the past few years and despite having to travel quite a distance for this clinic it is 10000% worth the journey. They are careful and expert in the treatments they deliver, and I always feel in safe hands. I would like to thank Dr Emily especially, I have not visited a different clinician or clinic since first seeing her for my treatments and I am always very happy with the results. As well as being talented she is just lovely and a pleasure to visit.

I have been with Dr Yusra for 3 years, and Ive never looked back, with some small tweaks she allowed me to feel confident again. If anyone is hesitant or looking for the perfect aesthetician I couldn’t recommend this clinic enough! Thank you!
