You can hit the gym as hard as you like, but you can’t always work off those extra pounds. At a certain point, our bodies can become more resistant to both a healthy diet and exercise. As a result, people eventually need to consider other methods to eliminate stubborn fat pockets. Enter CoolSculpting, a non-invasive procedure that is done right in our dermatology offices. CoolSculpting uses a patented technique to freeze fat cells and contour the body, effectively stimulating fat loss — all with no downtime. Sounds pretty cool, right?
Understanding CoolSculpting
Many fat-removing or fat-reducing procedures use lasers and sometimes surgery, which can negatively affect the skin, and cause bleeding, bruising, and scarring. CoolSculpting eliminates the drawbacks of traditional techniques, requires no surgery, and results in no scarring. This contouring procedure gets rid of the unwanted fat bulges through a cooling process called Cryolipolysis. The procedure lasts approximately one hour for each treated area. Throughout the next one to three months, the cooled fat cells disintegrate and exit the body, taking the fat with them, and leaving you with a slimmer body.
What does it feel like?
While this procedure is non-invasive, and no surgery is required, the question is, how does it feel? Once the process starts, patients tend to feel a cold breeze on the skin. This feeling disappears quickly, and most report that the procedure is comfortable and easy. When the CoolSculpting device pulls the desired area into the panels, the patient will feel a firm tug. During the treatment, the patient can comfortably relax and read, work on a laptop, listen to music, or watch videos.
