Non-Invasive Fat Reduction Services We Offer
Target stubborn fat and refine your contours with our expert fat reduction treatments.
PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy)
PEMF therapy boosts microcirculation, providing better oxygen and nutrient delivery to cells while supporting fat metabolism. Regular sessions improve blood flow, optimize cellular function, and improve the breakdown of fat for energy, making it an effective tool for non-invasive fat reduction and overall wellness.
VelaShape 3
VelaShape 3 uses a combination of radiofrequency, infrared light, vacuum suction, and mechanical massage to shrink fat cells and improve skin texture. This non-invasive treatment kickstarts circulation, stimulates collagen production, and smooths problem areas like the thighs, abdomen, and arms.
Laser
Our laser technology targets and eliminates fat cells in quick 25-minute sessions. Using precise light wavelengths, the laser penetrates beneath the skin to break down fat while also stimulating collagen production. Unlike other toning treatments that only shrink fat cells, this method permanently destroys them, so your body can naturally flush them out through the lymphatic system.

I’ve been coming to Josh Nissan at Body Sculpting Santa Barbara for four years, and every visit is worth it. As a busy person, I appreciate how he maximizes my sessions by stacking treatments. Now, with the AI system, the results are even more profound. I’m beyond happy with the outcome and the exceptional service Josh provides. Thank you, Josh, and AI Body Sculpting!
Josh is an artist! I was not confident in my body after two kids and after a session with Josh I felt like a new woman. He is knowledgeable and knows how to target the key areas to make the most impact. He is also very thorough and attentive to the process. He will not set up the machine and just walk away. He wants to make sure he maximizes every treatment. I’m truly blessed to have found him and would highly recommend him. I have diastatis recti and noticed the results almost immediately in my core strength. You will not regret an investment in yourself nor will you find anyone better than Josh. Take it from a skeptic - it really works!
I struggled with dry skin and acne and had tried countless products with little success. After seeing Josh, his skin treatments made a huge difference. He used a blend of South Korean serums and deep hydration—nothing harsh or aggressive. He understood my concerns and made the experience comfortable. Now, my skin looks amazing, and I feel so much more confident. Josh’s Signature Skin treatment truly delivers!
Saddle bags are gone ! Thank you so worth it
The services, professionalism and personal attention provided by Body Sculpting Santa Barbara are unparalleled. I leave treatment feeling my very best. Since starting my sessions I have received numerous compliments on my skin and overall appearance, 100% due to the treatments received. Josh provides next level service, the most up to date procedures, and is always introducing new techniques. I am very thankful for the after treatment follow-up and can’t wait until my next visit.
I had a wonderful experience at Body Sculpting Santa Barbara with Josh Nissan. The boutique is very clean and organized and my results have been phenomenal. I drive two hours just to see him because he is an expert in his field. Despite my efforts with diet and exercise, I couldn’t achieve the results I wanted until I came here. My skin is tight, my body looks great, and I’m thrilled with my transformation. Highly recommend Josh and his services!
I had the best experience with Josh and the results are amazing! Thank you for your expertise and caring during the treatments.
If your considering noninvasive body sculpting, look no further! Josh’s professionalism, intuition, compassion and knowledge set him apart. I have tried most of these machines with different practitioners in the area with no results. Josh’s expertise in combining modalities finally got me results (particularly in the bra bulge area). Thank you, Josh for your exceptional service and transformative impact. I’ll be back! Kim
I had an absolutely wonderful experience at Body Sculpting Santa Barbara. From the moment I started treatment, I could see my trouble spots being effectively taken care of.

The environment is super comfortable and safe, and Josh’s technique is unparalleled. He is up-to-date with all the latest research and incredibly passionate about what he does. There’s no other place I’d recommend for non-invasive treatments. I continue to drive down for other areas because of the fantastic results.

He answered all my questions and made me very comfortable and put me totally at ease. Once I met with him in his office, he reiterated what I could expect. I felt totally at ease after that. The entire experience, from the moment I walked into my first appointment, was fantastic. Josh was friendly and efficient, was not only knowledgeable but also took the time to address all my questions and concerns. After the 2nd treatment, I saw subtle improvements and I am pleased to say that I am very happy with the results of my procedure. Josh is very well trained, and I would highly recommend bodysculptingsantabarbara to any person wanting a caring and attentive treatment experience.

Ideal Candidates for Fat Reduction
- You have stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. – Despite maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise routine, some areas of fat may be genetically persistent and difficult to lose with traditional methods.
- You are close to your ideal weight but want to contour specific areas. – These treatments work best for body sculpting, not overall weight loss. If you have small to moderate fat deposits in areas like the abdomen, thighs, arms, love handles, or double chin, you may benefit from this procedure.
- You prefer a non-surgical solution with no downtime. – If you want to avoid the risks, scars, and long recovery time associated with surgery, our non-invasive fat reduction treatments offer a safer, more convenient alternative.
- You have realistic expectations and understand that results develop gradually. – These treatments rely on your body’s natural fat elimination processes, meaning results appear over weeks to months rather than instantly.
- You are committed to maintaining a healthy lifestyle after treatment. – While treated fat cells are permanently eliminated, remaining fat cells can still expand with weight gain.

Pre-Treatment Preparation and Post-Treatment Care
You will get all the necessary information from us before and after, and these are some general tips.
Pre-Treatment Preparation
- Stay well-hydrated before your appointment. – Drinking plenty of water helps your body function optimally and can aid in the natural elimination of fat cells after treatment.
- Avoid anti-inflammatory medications (such as ibuprofen) if recommended. – Some treatments work by triggering a natural inflammatory response, so NSAIDs like ibuprofen and aspirin may interfere with the process.
- Wear comfortable clothing on the day of treatment. – Loose, non-restrictive clothing makes the procedure more comfortable.
- Discuss any medical conditions or concerns. – Certain conditions, such as pregnancy, severe obesity, or circulatory disorders, may affect your eligibility for treatment.
Post-Treatment Care
- Resume normal activities immediately! – One of the biggest advantages of non-invasive fat reduction treatments is that you can return to work, exercise, and daily routines right away without restrictions.
- Expect some mild redness, swelling, or numbness, which subsides within a few days. – Temporary tingling, sensitivity, or slight bruising may occur, but these side effects resolve naturally within a few hours to days.
- Stay hydrated to help flush out the fat cells. – Your body will naturally eliminate the destroyed fat cells through its lymphatic system. Drinking plenty of water supports this process.
- Maintain a healthy diet and regular exercise to support long-term results.
- Follow any specific aftercare instructions provided by our specialists.
