Body contouring is no longer a women-only conversation. In Orange County, men now account for a growing share of non-invasive body sculpting clients — and the results speak for themselves. At Nika Skincare, we have seen a significant increase in male clients seeking treatments for stubborn fat, love handles, and overall body refinement.
Why More Men Are Choosing Body Contouring
The shift is driven by several factors:
- Changing attitudes: Body confidence is no longer gendered. Men want to look and feel their best
- Stubborn genetics: Many men carry fat deposits in the abdomen and flanks that resist even rigorous exercise
- Non-invasive options: No surgery means no downtime — busy professionals do not have to take time off
- Discreet treatments: Nobody needs to know you are getting treatment
- Proven results: Measurable inch loss that shows up in how your clothes fit
Common Treatment Areas for Men
Abdomen
The number one area for men. Even fit, active men often carry a persistent layer of abdominal fat. LPG Cellu M6 Infinity and VelaShape III both excel at reducing abdominal circumference and tightening the overlying skin.
Love Handles (Flanks)
The second most requested area. Love handles are notoriously resistant to diet and exercise due to the density of fat receptors in this region. Body contouring can specifically target these deposits.
Chest
Some men develop excess fatty tissue in the chest area (gynecomastia-adjacent concerns). Non-invasive treatments can reduce this tissue and create a flatter, more defined chest contour.
Back
"Back fat" is another common complaint, particularly along the bra line area and lower back. Body contouring smooths these areas effectively.
Best Treatments for Men
LPG Cellu M6 Infinity
Particularly effective for men because:
- Treats larger body areas efficiently
- The mechanical stimulation works well on denser male tissue
- Zero downtime — go straight back to the gym
- Progressive results that look natural, not "done"
VelaShape III
Excellent for men seeking:
- Measurable circumference reduction
- Skin tightening, especially on the abdomen
- Quick treatment sessions (30-45 minutes)
- Comfortable treatment experience
Combination Protocol
For the most impressive results, Lida often recommends a combination of LPG and VelaShape:
- LPG sessions (2x per week): Focus on fat mobilization and tissue remodeling
- VelaShape sessions (1x per week): Target circumference reduction and skin tightening
- 8-12 week program: Produces measurable, visible transformation
