You have done the work. The training, the nutrition, the consistency. The mirror keeps showing the same softness in the same places, the same loose contour where firmness used to live, the same stubborn outline that diet and exercise alone cannot shift. The body responds to gravity, age, hormonal change, and the physics of skin and fat in ways no amount of plank holds can override. Some changes need a different tool.
Dr. Kristin Dean, MD, is a board-certified physician with more than fifteen years of medical experience. At our San Diego County concierge med spa, Dr. Dean delivers radiofrequency body contouring treatments to your home, your office, or any private space of your choosing. Every session begins with a body assessment, then a treatment plan designed around the specific areas you want to tighten, contour, or shape. The devices Glomi uses are FDA-cleared for non-invasive body contouring. No anesthesia. No incisions. No downtime that keeps you away from your life.
Glomi serves San Diego County from Encinitas to La Jolla, Del Mar, Rancho Santa Fe, Carmel Valley, and the broader North County coastal corridor. No clinic visit. No undressing in a public exam room. No standing for treatment photos in a hallway that other patients walk through.

Why Choose Glomi Wellness Lab for Your Body Contouring Treatment
Board-Certified Physician Designs Every Treatment Plan
Dr. Kristin Dean, MD, personally assesses your body, identifies the areas where radiofrequency body contouring can deliver meaningful change, and designs the treatment plan. Not a technician operating a device on a fixed protocol. A board-certified physician with more than fifteen years of medical experience deciding what to treat, how to treat it, and how many sessions will actually move the result you came for.
Realistic Expectations Set Before Treatment
Body contouring devices are tools, not magic. The right candidate, the right device, the right number of sessions, and the right at-home support, all matter. Dr. Dean tells you what radiofrequency body contouring can do and what it cannot do before you commit to a plan. You leave the consultation knowing whether this is the right treatment for what you want to change.
Multi-Modal Approach to Body Shape, Not a Single Device
Real body contouring outcomes often combine technologies, treatment cadence, and patient-side practices. Glomi can pair radiofrequency body contouring with medical-grade chemical peels for skin texture in treated areas, GLP-1 medical weight loss support for patients pursuing fat reduction alongside skin tightening, and nutrition and hydration guidance through the treatment series. The plan is built around the goal, not built around what a single device can do alone.
Press-Credentialed Practice in San Diego
Dr. Dean has been featured on The Localist SD on KUSI, profiled in SD Voyager Magazine, and quoted by Locally Well San Diego. Her conservative, results-led approach to aesthetic medicine, the same approach she brings to wrinkle relaxer injections and dermal fillers, applies to body contouring. The goal is your body looking the way you want it to look, not the way a stock device protocol assumes every patient should.
Why Choose Concierge Body Contouring Treatment
Privacy Where Body Imagery Stays Private
Body contouring assessment involves looking at the skin and contour of areas most people are private about. Body imagery for treatment planning belongs in a private space, not a clinic exam room where you change into a paper gown in front of strangers. Glomi conducts the assessment in your own space, with your own mirror, your own clothing, and complete control over who sees you.
No Recovery Window That Disrupts Your Week
Radiofrequency body contouring is non-invasive. There is no anesthesia, no incision, no compression garment to wear under work clothes. Most patients return to normal activity immediately after a session. Concierge delivery means the session itself does not consume a half-day of commute and clinic time on top of the treatment itself. You schedule the session, Glomi arrives, the session happens, and you continue your day.
Sessions Scheduled Around Your Calendar
Most body contouring plans involve multiple sessions spaced two to four weeks apart over a series of months. Coordinating that with a clinic calendar is a real logistical burden, especially during peak professional or family seasons. Glomi schedules sessions around your week. If next month is busy and the month after is calmer, the plan adjusts.
Body-Shape Consultation Without Sales Pressure
Body shape is personal, and the right plan depends on what you actually want, not what a clinic wants to sell. Concierge delivery removes the operational pressure that public-facing clinics carry to fill specific treatment slots. Glomi’s recommendation will tell you whether radiofrequency body contouring is the right tool, the wrong tool, or part of a larger plan that includes other Glomi treatments or non-aesthetic medical guidance.
What Radiofrequency Body Contouring Actually Does
How Radiofrequency Body Contouring Works
Radiofrequency body contouring delivers controlled heat into the deeper layers of skin and into the fibrous tissue that holds fat in place. The heat does two things at once. It contracts existing collagen and stimulates new collagen and elastin production, which over weeks tightens the appearance of loose or softened skin. In some treatment protocols, the heat also reaches the subcutaneous fat layer, where the targeted thermal effect supports a reduction in localized fat pockets that diet and exercise have not been able to reach. The treatment is non-invasive, performed entirely from the surface of the skin, and does not involve anesthesia, incisions, or surgical recovery.
What Distinguishes Medical-Grade Body Contouring From At-Home Devices
Over-the-counter body contouring tools, the handheld devices marketed for at-home use, deliver a fraction of the energy needed to produce structural change in collagen and fat tissue. They are limited by regulation, by safety considerations for consumer use, and by the practical reality that meaningful body contouring requires precise energy delivery at depths a home device cannot reach. Medical-grade radiofrequency body contouring, performed by a licensed physician, delivers the energy levels and treatment protocols that actually produce results. The difference is not marketing; it is what the device is physically able to do in your tissue.
When Radiofrequency Body Contouring Is a Good Fit
You may be a good candidate for radiofrequency body contouring with Glomi if any of the following describes you:
- You have areas of mild to moderate skin laxity on the abdomen, thighs, upper arms, or jawline that have softened with age, weight change, or post-pregnancy recovery
- You have stubborn pockets of fat in specific areas that diet and exercise have not been able to shift
- You want non-invasive body contouring without surgery, anesthesia, or recovery downtime
- You are within a reasonable range of your goal weight or are actively stabilizing your weight (the best radiofrequency body contouring results land on patients whose weight is stable, not patients in active significant weight change)
- You can commit to a series of treatments over several months, not a single session expecting transformation
- You prefer to receive body contouring assessment and treatment in your home or private office rather than at a public clinic
Radiofrequency body contouring is not appropriate for every patient. Pacemakers, defibrillators, certain implanted medical devices, pregnancy, and active skin conditions in the treatment area are contraindications. Significant excess skin from major weight loss may exceed what non-invasive treatment can address; in those cases Dr. Dean will tell you so and discuss surgical options if you want a referral. Dr. Dean reviews your medical history before recommending body contouring.
Your Concierge Body Contouring Plan, From Consultation to Follow-Up
1. Consultation (45 to 60 minutes)
Dr. Dean arrives at your chosen location and conducts a full body assessment of the areas you want to address: skin laxity, fat distribution, body composition, recent weight change, and treatment history. You and Dr. Dean discuss what radiofrequency body contouring can realistically deliver for the specific areas you care about and outline a treatment plan, typically a series of four to eight sessions spaced two to four weeks apart, with realistic timelines for visible change.
2. Treatment Sessions (45 to 60 minutes each)
Each session is performed in your space. The treatment area is cleansed, a conducting gel is applied, and the radiofrequency device is moved over the target area in a controlled pattern. Most patients describe the sensation as a warm, deep massage, more focused than topical massage but well within the range of comfort. Most patients continue with their normal day immediately after a session.
3. Results, Follow-Up, and Maintenance
Visible skin tightening typically becomes noticeable after the third or fourth session, with the strongest results landing two to three months after the series is complete as collagen continues to rebuild. Dr. Dean conducts a follow-up assessment at the conclusion of the series and discusses maintenance: most patients benefit from a refresher session every six to twelve months to extend the results.
Common Questions About Radiofrequency Body Contouring
Is radiofrequency body contouring painful?
Most patients describe the sensation as a warm, deep massage. The device heats the deeper layers of skin and tissue to a controlled temperature that produces collagen contraction; you feel warmth and pressure throughout the session. The provider monitors your comfort and adjusts the device as needed. No anesthesia is required.
How many sessions will I need to see results?
Most patients see initial skin tightening after three to four sessions and complete a planned series of four to eight sessions for full results. The exact number depends on your starting condition, the area being treated, and your goals. Dr. Dean outlines the recommended series during your consultation, and the plan is reviewed and adjusted as you progress.
How long do the results last?
Skin tightening results from radiofrequency body contouring typically last twelve to eighteen months from the conclusion of the initial treatment series. Maintenance sessions every six to twelve months extend the results. Your own collagen and elastin continue to age over time, so periodic refresher treatment slows the natural decline.
Will radiofrequency body contouring help me lose weight?
Radiofrequency body contouring is not a weight-loss treatment. It tightens skin, improves contour, and can reduce localized fat pockets in specific treated areas, but it does not produce overall weight loss. Patients pursuing weight loss alongside body contouring often combine the treatment with Glomi’s medical weight loss support; Dr. Dean can discuss whether combination is appropriate for your goals during your consultation.
How much does radiofrequency body contouring cost at Glomi?
Pricing depends on the treatment area, the number of sessions, and whether you choose a single area or a multi-area plan. Glomi maintains transparent pricing for both standard appointments and members; the pricing page carries current rates.
Can I combine body contouring with other Glomi treatments?
Yes. Radiofrequency body contouring is frequently combined with medical-grade chemical peels for skin texture in treated areas, wrinkle relaxer treatment for facial concerns addressed in parallel, and medical weight loss support for patients pursuing fat reduction alongside skin tightening. Dr. Dean develops a treatment timeline that respects healing windows and treatment cadence for each modality.
