Consult
To find out what treatments are right for you, let’s talk about it! Dr. Perlis and every member of her team feel that talking in person with our patients is the best way to build a comprehensive plan. This more personal approach allows our experts to dive deeper into your conditions and goals as we build your plan.
In your consultation, we’ll discuss your current concerns and take a deep dive into your overall health and beauty. With our in-house DEXA Scanner and CNS testing, we can get up-to-date readings on your BMI, bone density, and much more.
As we get to know you on a cellular level, Dr. Cheryl Perlis will dive even deeper to get to know you as a person, not just a patient. If your body and beauty goals can be empowered with body contouring in Highland Park, she’ll discuss your options, and we’ll schedule your first treatment.
Treatment
On the day of your first Physiq treatment, we’ll check you in and escort you back to a comfortable treatment room. There, your specialist will answer any remaining questions and prepare you for your session. Throughout every session, we’ll pay close attention to your comfort levels, so let your specialist know if you have any sensitive areas before we begin.
To begin your session, we’ll have you lie on your back or stomach, depending on your treatment. At first, it’s common to feel a warming sensation at the applicator site. If you feel any discomfort at any point in your session, Physiq comes with a patient control feature that allows you to control the cooling system for maximum comfort. Many of our patients feel so comfortable, we have to nudge them awake by the end of the session!
Results
In just 30 to 45 minutes, your session is complete, and you’re able to get back to your day! Patients typically need 4 to 5 sessions to experience true results, so we’ll schedule your next session and give you some pointers on aftercare before you leave.

How Body Contouring Works
Now that you know how we can help you reach your body goals, let’s discuss the science behind this transformative treatment. Physiq uses STEP technology to incorporate both electrical muscle stimulation and deep heating in one effective sequence.
The first step utilizes deep tissue heating to break up the cellular structure of subcutaneous fat. The second step involves painless electrical pulses that cause muscles to contract and retract. This sequence is similar to the process your body goes through in a high-intensity workout.
Body Contouring Explained
While our body contouring in Highland Park may sound like science fiction, it uses basic concepts that everyone’s body uses every day. Your body naturally melts fat, and, whether you notice it or not, your muscle fibers constantly contract and retract as you move. Both work in tandem as two key processes that many people typically don’t think about. Here’s how these two sequences work with your body’s natural processes:
Melting Fat
While you may think that melting fat involves limiting calories, you’re missing half of the equation. The two basic principles of fat melting are heat and fuel. By limiting the fuel or calories that fat needs to grow, you’re only stopping further growth. The key element to melting fat is heat energy that damages fat cells causing them to break down. This is one of the key reasons your body heats up during a workout.
Physiq melts fat with an SDM, or superluminescent diode matrix. This highly specialized light energy goes deep into your tissue to damage fat cells as it’s transferred into heat energy. As your fat melts down, it makes way for true muscle tone to come to the surface.
Toning Muscle
Muscle builds naturally with repetitive movements that constantly tear and rebuild muscle fibers. Toning happens as your body naturally reshapes these muscles for optimal, regular use. That’s why trainers recommend different workouts depending on your body-building goals.
Using the same principles as any typical workout, our body contouring in Highland Park works to retrain your muscles. Every movement you make is caused by electrical pulses from your nervous system.
Physiq uses similar electrical signals to tell the targeted muscles to contract and retract. Instead of the few hundred contractions in a typical toning workout, Physiq works to contract muscles thousands of times a minute to retrain them efficiently and effectively.
