Love Handles
Love handles form when fatty tissues (containing the body’s fat mass) develop on either side of the hips. Love handles in both men and women can give the silhouette an appearance that may become a source of insecurity.
While exercise and a balanced diet can help reduce them, love handles are sometimes difficult to combat due to the many fat cells present in this area of the body.
Victoria Park Medispa offers minimally invasive medical-aesthetic solutions as well as surgical options for patients wondering how to lose their love handles.
Love Handles: Factors Contributing to Their Appearance
A diet high in sugar and fat, combined with a sedentary lifestyle, is enough to develop love handles. Hormonal changes, particularly during pregnancy or menopause, are another factor that leads to unwanted fat storage. Certain medications are also known to cause hormonal imbalances and can contribute to the formation of love handles.
And while the slowing of metabolism, which comes with the inevitable aging of the body, can be pointed out, it is important to know that heredity also plays a role.
Additionally, lack of sleep and water are two factors that promote fat storage, particularly in the love handle area. Finally, blood sugar spikes that trigger insulin—the hormone that distributes sugar in the body—become real vectors that contribute to the formation of fat around the waist and hips.
Although a healthy diet and physical activity can reduce waist size, all these factors can make it difficult to naturally eliminate love handles.
The muscle-toning technology EmSculpt Neo at Victoria Park Medispa, and the liposuction treatments at the medical-aesthetic clinic, allow men and women to redefine their silhouette and permanently get rid of their love handles.

Treatments to Lose Love Handles
If a balanced and active lifestyle does not effectively contribute to the fat loss goals of individuals suffering from love handles, they can turn to definitive aesthetic treatments. To this end, Victoria Park Medispa directs its clients to two particularly effective treatments: Emsculpt Neo and liposuction. The Emsculpt Neo treatment is a non-invasive procedure that targets and destroys fat cells while toning muscles.
Each 30-minute session is equivalent to 20,000 sit-ups, without sweating or muscle pain. Results are observed from the first session; after three months, the body is reshaped.
Liposuction is a perfect surgical option to radically eliminate love handles. Through suction, the doctor removes fat deposits from the hips, instantly slimming the body without leaving visible scars. This cosmetic surgery is an interesting option for people who struggle to combat excess fat, as optimal results are achieved 5 to 6 months after the procedure.

Treatment for Love Handles: Some Tips
The first consultation with the professional at Victoria Park Medispa allows for a discussion of the patient’s medical history and expectations to determine the most suitable treatment. Although the Emsculpt Neo treatment does not require any special preparation before the procedure and does not require any recovery period, it is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, as well as individuals with a hernia, heart condition, or copper IUD.
Regarding liposuction, this surgical procedure requires the patient to follow some specific recommendations. For example, it is recommended to avoid alcohol and certain medications one week before the procedure. The medical-aesthetic clinic professional informs the patient about post-operative care and hygiene routines, as well as possible side effects (discomfort, pain) and ways to alleviate them.
In Summary
Love handles are caused by a diet high in sugar and fat, a sedentary lifestyle, hormonal changes (pregnancy, menopause), a slowing metabolism, and genetic predispositions.
Victoria Park Medispa offers treatments such as Emsculpt Neo (non-invasive) and liposuction (surgical) to effectively eliminate love handles.
Emsculpt Neo combines fat destruction and muscle toning. A 30-minute session is equivalent to 20,000 sit-ups, without pain or sweating, with visible results from the first session.
These treatments are suitable for men and women, but certain cases such as pregnant or breastfeeding women, or individuals with a hernia or copper IUD, should avoid Emsculpt Neo.
