CoolSculpting® Liposuction Alternative
While liposuction is still an effective way of surgically correcting excess pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise, this treatment method is not ideal for everyone. For men and women who have pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise, the non-invasive fat reduction technologies of CoolSculpting® can be a great alternative at The Plastic Surgery Center.
The Science Behind CoolSculpting®
Developed by scientists at the renowned Harvard University, CoolSculpting® is based on the observation that children who ate more popsicles tended to develop dimples in their cheeks as a result of the facial fat cells being frozen. The science of Cryolipolysis® is based on this observation, giving CoolSculpting® the unique ability to literally freeze targeted fat cells in the abdomen and love handles without injuring the skin or connective tissues. Once the fat cells are disrupted, they are permanently removed by the body, leading to visible fat reduction and slimmer, more toned body contours.
The CoolSculpting® Procedure
You will be made comfortable during your treatment, and a small, vacuum-like applicator will be positioned over treated areas. While a few moments of intense cold are often experienced, most patients are able to relax and even read, check mobile devices, or sleep during the course of the treatment session. CoolSculpting® is completely non-invasive and non-surgical, allowing patients to immediately return to normal activities.
Recovery
As CoolSculpting® stimulates the skin’s inflammatory response, some post-treatment redness may be visible but should fade quickly after the procedure. Most men and women resume normal activities without any side effects or complications. During your consultation our CoolSculpting® specialist will assess your health, medical history, and other factors to determine whether this procedure is safe for you. Multiple treatment sessions may be necessary for optimal results, and full results are often visible in two to four months.
