CoolSculpting

Making healthy food choices (goodbye cake and cookies!) and getting the recommended amount of exercise (hello treadmill and weights!) can play a significant role in losing extra pounds. However, even when people are at a healthy weight, they may still have bulges of unwanted fat that just won't budge. This is because we can't control where the body stores fat or where the fat is burned—no matter how many crunches we may do.

This is where CoolSculpting can help.

Experts discovered that fat freezes at higher temperatures than the skin, which allows the fat cells to be destroyed without hurting the skin or other tissues. In 2010, the FDA approved this method of fat removal, known as cryolipolysis (CoolSculpting serves as the brand name).

It is a non-invasive procedure that can remove pockets of excess fat from many areas of the body, including the belly, back and sides, thighs, upper arms, underneath the buttocks, and along the bra line. It can even treat under the chin and jawline.

The process

We begin with an evaluation and examination to discuss your goals and situation. Then, we create a personalized treatment plan that targets your areas of concern.

We begin the procedure by attaching a customized applicator to the treatment area and securing it with a strap. Suction gently draws the skin into the applicator, where cold freezes the fat cells. After they are frozen, some of the fat cells change, losing their structure and ability to store fat.

After the treatment is complete, we massage the area to break up the frozen fat cells. The released fat is then removed through the lymphatic system.

Benefits

CoolSculpting is perfect for people seeking a non-invasive treatment option that can be performed in a doctor's office and doesn't require downtime for recovery.

The procedure removes about 20 to 25 percent of fat cells in the treated area. Changes may be noticeable within several weeks, and the final results will be apparent after a few months.

Good candidates

Men and women of normal body weight are the best candidates for this treatment, as it contours a specific part of the body but doesn't cause weight loss.

If you have tried diet and exercise but still have problem areas where you just can't shake the fat, CoolSculpting may be a good option for you. Call our office at 218-454-9999 or click here to book an appointment today for a consultation.
