Body Contouring
Astoria Esthetics offers non-invasive body contouring in Astoria, Queens, with personalized treatments designed to address localized fat and improve muscle tone and definition without surgery, using the Venus Bliss Max Machine. Depending on your goals, your treatment plan may include energy-based fat reduction, electromagnetic muscle stimulation, or a combination approach. Complimentary consultations are available to determine which option is appropriate for you.
Non-invasive body contouring includes treatments designed to reshape or improve the appearance of specific areas of the body without surgery or incisions.
At Astoria Esthetics, body contouring treatments are tailored to address three key areas:
FAT REDUCTION
Laser energy gently heats the fat and targets the deeper layers where it accumulates. This triggers the body's natural process of breaking down ft cells, which are gradually eliminated through the lymphatic system. Some ptients may see up to 20% reduction of obdominal fat.*
MUSCLE CONDITIONING
Hands-free FlexMAX Electrical
Muscle Stimultion treatment intelligently targets 7 different muscle groups nd mimics realworkouts, delivering up to 100,000 muscle contractions in just 30 minutes.
SKIN & CELLULITE TREATMENT
Proprietary (MP)2 combines Multi-Polar Radio Frequency (RF) to boost collagen ond elastin production and Pulsed
Electro Magnetic Fields (PEMF) to support the body's natural healing process. Integrated VariPulse™ technology uses a massage-like motion to improve blood circulation and target stubborn cellulite for effective body sculpting.
What Is Non-Invasive Body Contouring?
What Areas Can Body Contouring Treat?
Treatment areas depend on the technology being used and your individual anatomy and goals.
Common areas may include:
Abdomen — for contouring and muscle definition
Flanks — to address localized fullness around the waist
Thighs — for selected areas of localized fat or muscle toning
Glutes — to support muscle tone and firmness
Back and bra-line area — for localized contouring
Other areas — when appropriate for the specific device and treatment plan
Your provider will determine whether the area you want to address is suitable for treatment during your consultation.
When Will I See Body Contouring Results?
Results from non-invasive body contouring usually develop gradually rather than immediately.
Venus Bliss MAX's advanced 3-in-1 solution works on fat, muscle, and skin effectively, safely and comfortably. Customizable treatment plans ensure optimal results and satisfaction.
Depending on the treatment:
Fat-reduction treatments: changes may develop over several weeks as the body responds to the treated area
Muscle-toning treatments: firmness and definition may become more noticeable over the weeks following a treatment series
Multiple sessions: a series may be recommended depending on your goals and the technology used
Maintenance: additional treatments may be recommended to help maintain results
Results vary significantly based on the treatment used, starting body composition, treatment area, lifestyle, and individual response.
Body contouring is not intended to treat obesity or replace healthy nutrition and regular physical activity.
Is Body Contouring Right for Me?
Body contouring may be appropriate for adults who are generally healthy and want to improve the appearance of a specific area without surgery.
It may be particularly useful for clients who have localized areas of fullness or want additional muscle tone and definition.

-
The number of sessions depends on the device, treatment area, starting point, and desired result. Some treatment plans involve multiple sessions, while others may use a different schedule. Your provider will recommend a personalized plan after your consultation.
-
Sensation depends on the technology being used. Fat-reduction treatments may cause warmth or temporary discomfort, while muscle-toning treatments can produce strong muscle contractions and temporary soreness afterward.
-
Many non-invasive body-contouring treatments have little to no downtime, and most clients can return to normal activities relatively quickly. Temporary redness, tenderness, swelling, numbness, or muscle soreness can occur.
-
Fat-reduction treatments target localized subcutaneous fat. Muscle-toning treatments stimulate muscle contractions to improve tone and firmness. They address different concerns and may be used separately or as part of a combined treatment plan.
-
Results depend on the technology being used. Some fat-reduction procedures are intended to reduce fat cells in the treated area, while muscle-toning effects may require ongoing maintenance. Weight changes, aging, and lifestyle can also affect how results look over time.
-
Some energy-based technologies may temporarily improve the appearance of skin firmness, but non-invasive body contouring does not replace surgical skin-removal procedures for significant laxity.
-
Contraindications depend on the specific technology. People who are pregnant or who have certain implanted electronic devices, metal in the treatment area, active skin conditions, or other medical concerns may not be candidates. Your provider will review your medical history before treatment.
