What is Coolsculpting?

Coolsculpting is new, highly innovative cosmetic procedure used to address unwanted body fat in a natural looking way. It is a non-evasive, alternative to liposuction that has been approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration). Most patients experience no downtime after Coolsculpting treatments.

The procedure is performed on men and women. It works by drawing targeted fat between two specifically designed cooling panels. Intense cold is applied to the fat cells and they are frozen, but the other skin and tissue aren’t affected. They are naturally eliminated from the body over a course of a few months. Some patients see results as early as several weeks after the procedure. The most noticeable results typically occur in one to three months. Improvements may continue for up to six months.

Coolsculpting treatments typically last for only an hour and yield an approximate 20 percent reduction in fat. Most patients only require one session. One of the most revolutionary things about Coolsculpting is it is virtually pain free. Patients usually feel a pulling sensation during the procedure along with pressure to the treatment area. Some people do experience redness, bruising and minimal discomfort, but that usually subsides in several days. Many patients return to their normal daily schedule immediately.

CoolSculpting Before and After

Coolsculpting is not a solution for individuals who are obese and want to lose weight. It is best-suited for people who are near their ideal weight, but are bothered by persistent, localized fat bulges. The abdomen, back and thighs are some of the most popular treatment areas. People who have the procedure need to follow a healthy lifestyle in order to maintain the changes.

Using an experienced physician for the treatments will help ensure you get the results you want. It is also important to tell your doctor about any previous or underlying medical conditions.

Sometimes diet and exercise are not enough to remove stubborn body fat. Coolsculpting treatments are a revolutionary alternative for people who want another option. For more details, please visit www.smoothmed.com.
