Sentient Sculpt is a non-invasive professional electromagnetic wave and microwave treatment for cellulite reduction. Unlike other products on the market that are absorbed in the skin or medical devices that incise tissue, Sentient Sculpt uses controlled energy to elevate tissue temperature to reach cellulite fibers and fat cells, while simultaneously cooling the skin.
Successfully utilized in Europe over the past four years under a different trade name, it is being offered in the U.S. exclusively by Sentient.
Sentient Sculpt is a patented cellulite reduction device that uses 2.45 Gigahertz energy. This technology, including a flat-panel applicator, sends 80 percent of energy into the fat tissue. This is a significant improvement over competing radiofrequency devices which typically only reach between 10 to 20 percent of those tissues., Sentient Sculpt has been shown produce results after a few treatment sessions.
“We see the aesthetics industry still depends on equipment with old technology that really doesn’t effectively address cellulite, leaves many patients disappointed, and undermines opportunities for customers’ businesses to grow,” says Chris Cella, Chief Executive Officer of Sentient, in a news relase. “We went around the world to find industry leading innovations in aesthetics and are excited to offer the first impactful non-invasive device for cellulite, Sentient Sculpt, which we expect to be a game changer.”
Results of a multi-hospital study conducted in Europe and published in the Journal of Clinical Medicine showed 73 percent of patients went from moderate or severe cellulite to mild, using Sentient Sculpt technology. A significant improvement of cellulite in posterior thighs and buttocks areas was observed in all subjects treated, with a significant decrease in the number and depth of cellulite depressions. Further, no side effects were observed, and researchers noted a remarkable improvement in satisfaction and comfort over invasive treatment methods.
“In terms of what Sentient Sculpt is able to do, it’s much more energy deeper and faster. So it lets us create the tissue conditions that we need to generate the body contouring and body smoothing changes that we’re targeting in a 12 to 15 minute treatment, which is substantially faster than we previously could,” says Lawrence Bass, MD, Founder and Medical Director of Bass Plastic Surgery in New York, NY. “It’s hard to have a treatment that fits all purposes, makes every individual patient happy, regardless of how advanced their conditions are. But we’ve had pretty much a universally positive experience with my patients over the last 15 months.”
