Coolsculptingreg; procedure is a non surgical treatment for body
contouring and fat reduction. It utilizes well controlled cold
temperature to freeze and remove fat cells effectively and
permanently from the body. Coolsculpting does not require any
incision and therefore leaves no scar and requires no downtime. For
most people, it causes some redness and slight discomfort in the
treated area, which fade quickly. NO anaesthesia is needed for a
Coolsculpting treatment. In short, it is a much safer alternative to
liposuction. Coolsculpting can be used on nearly any area where
there is stubborn fat. Common areas include abdomen, waist, inner
and outer thighs, and chin

Coolsculpting is a unique procedure.
Unlike liposuction, there is no invasive technique, no incision
and no scarring. It can be used on nearly any area for removal of
the “stubborn fat”. Commonly treated areas include the abdomen,
"love handles", inner or outer thighs and under the chin. The
results are long-lasting because the fat cells that have been
frozen are permanently removed from your body
A vacuum assisted handpiece draws in the
fat area between two cooling plates. These cooling plates lower
the temperature of the fat cells to crystallization levels - the
crystallization destroys the fat cells, which are then removed
from the body naturally. Fat "freezes" at a higher temperature
than skin tissue, so your skin is never subjected to temperatures
that could be harmful. CoolSculpting technology maintains
treatment temperature at a level that is effective and safe.
Results? Thinner waist, flatter tummy, slimmer back, or other
treated area.
No, your fat cells are actually destroyed
and will not return. Everyone is born with a certain amount of
fat cells. CoolSculpting permanently destroys about 20% to 25% of
fat cells in the treated area. If, however, you gain weight
again, the remaining fat cells in the treated area will likely
expand, but they won't have their neighbor cells to expand along
with them as in the past.
First, you will be weighed, measured and
marked. Photos of the treatment area will be taken and your skin
in this area will be prepped to remove any body oils or lotions.
A gel sheet will be placed on the treatment area to further
protect the skin, and then the treatment appplicator cup will be
placed firmly over the area. You will feel a strong "pulling"
sensation once the system is turned on and the vacuum secures the
fat tissue within the cup. As the cold level increases, you may
feel some temporary discomfort which subsides in about 5 minutes.
Active treatment time per area is 60 minutes. Once the treatment
cup is removed, your skin will be red, very cold and feel almost
like butter. The tissues relax quickly and the redness subsides
within an hour or so.
Some patients report temporary numbness
and/or discomfort in the treated area. This is normal and will
subside within a few days to possibly a couple of weeks.
Additionally, you may also see some slight swelling, bruising or
redness.
