Kaplan Cosmetic Surgery Feature on Channel 13 News
Accent Therapy Just Approved By FDA
It is the first in Orlando. A new breakthrough promises no cuts, no surgery and no exercise to get you looking thinner.
Cosmetic surgeon Dr. Barry Kaplan worked on both Martha Dansberger and Christy Dropkin. Both are concerned were concerned about their thighs and their arms.
"I like to go sleeveless but look at these wings, I mean, hello," Dropkin said.
"Even when I was 119 pounds I had this, it hangs," Dansberger said.
Here is how it works. Using a device, Dr. Kaplan precisely heats an area of the inner layer of skin while simultaneously cooling the outer layer.
"It feels like you are getting close to the Iron. It’s just short of painful," Dropkin said.
The process causes fat cells to shrink and stimulates new collagen. Why is that important?"Youth. One word, youth. As we age, our collagen diminishes, it becomes disorganized and that's why we get fat, it's all the things we don't want," Kaplan said. It only takes about 30 minutes and there is no downtime with an instant recovery.
"I think this is going to be very effective and I think it's the wave of the future because no one wants to have a scar! They say 60 is the new 40. We want to reflect that, Dropkin said.You may start seeing results after just a couple of treatments. It is recommended to get six treatments and those results should last about a year.
The price depends on how many treatments and what body part you have done but usually starts around a couple of hundred dollars.
People who have a defibrillator or a pacemaker or who are pregnant cannot have this procedure done.
