CoolSculpting
Sometimes, eating right, hitting the gym, and maintaining a healthy weight just doesn’t feel like enough. Many women still have stubborn areas of excess fat on their bodies that they just can’t seem to get rid of.
For a long time, the best option to remove extra, unwanted fat was to have an invasive liposuction procedure, which involves a lengthy recovery period and significant stress. With CoolSculpting, there’s now a non-invasive way to get rid of unwanted fat on your legs, arms, or midsection. This treatment freezes the fat and destroys fat cells, offering a revolutionary approach in plastic surgery. Treating each area takes approximately an hour, and you’ll be awake and alert, so feel free to bring a laptop, tablet, or book along!
CoolSculpting involves a device that suctions onto the target area and freezes it. Initially, it may feel a bit uncomfortable, but usually, any feelings of discomfort wear off around 10 minutes into the treatment. Afterward, you may feel some soreness in the treated area for a few days, and the area may appear red or swollen. However, in most cases, people are able to get right back to their normal lives immediately.
One thing to note: CoolSculpting results take time! You’ll need to give your body time to flush out the dead fat cells, which can take 3-6 months. It’s up to you to maintain the results — fat destroyed by CoolSculpting won’t come back, but eating high-calorie foods and halting exercise can cause remaining fat cells to expand. If you work to keep the fat off, you’re sure to be satisfied with the results of CoolSculpting.
