Sometimes diet and exercise just aren’t enough – especially when you’re dealing with stubborn fat.

Thanks to hormonal changes, aging, and even genetics, some people have trouble targeting and contouring specific areas of the body that may be prone to clinging fat cells.  Vulnerable areas often include the stomach, thighs, arms, and even around the neck and jawline.  As a result, these people may still have body contouring issues, despite the fact that they’re eating healthy and following an exercise regimen.

CoolSculpting®, an FDA-approved cold therapy technology, solves this problem by using a non-invasive approach to target and destroy fat cells.  Given CoolSculpting®’s high patient satisfaction ratings and results (up to 21% fat cell reduction), more people are choosing this treatment over other body contouring solutions.

But is it right for you? Here’s how to tell:

• You’re close to your ideal weight: CoolSculpting® is definitely not a weight-loss tool; rather, it’s meant to produce noticeable inch loss in areas prone to stubborn fat gain.  Ideal candidates are typically within 20 to 30 pounds of their goal weight and just need a little extra help with that remaining fat.

• You’re sticking to a healthy regimen: One of the benefits of CoolSculpting® is that it leads to permanent results; once destroyed, fat cells stay destroyed. However, CoolSculpting® can’t prevent the formation of new fat cells on the treated area, which means clients need to be dedicated to following an active and healthy lifestyle.  Otherwise, new fat cells will grow in place of the old ones!

• You can follow a treatment plan: Patients may see results after their first sessions though most need two to three sessions for ideal results. Whatever number of sessions you need, it’s important to stick to your treatment plan set out for you by your CoolSculpting®

Do your New Year’s resolutions include slimming down so you can show off your best self?

Now that we’re well into January, you may be finding that slimming down isn’t always as easy as eating well and getting plenty of exercise.  That’s especially true when you have stubborn pockets of fat that won’t seem to respond to anything you do.

If the above sounds familiar, it’s time to introduce yourself to CoolSculpting – the ultimate solution to stubborn fat that just won’t respond to diet and exercise!

What Makes CoolSculpting So Special?

CoolSculpting is an FDA-approved, non-invasive procedure that’s used to target and destroy stubborn fat cells underneath the dermis.  The hand piece uses cooling energy to freeze and destroy fat cells in the targeted area.

CoolSculpting is surprisingly comfortable to use, and can take up to an hour per treatment area.  Most people use CoolSculpting treatments to target fat around the abdomen, waistline, buttocks, thighs, and other trouble spots.

CoolSculpting is also available in CoolSculpting Mini, which uses a smaller hand piece to treat those tougher areas, like the armpit or underneath the chin.

What Kind of Results Can You Expect?

The “cool” thing about CoolSculpting is that multiple studies have looked into the efficacy of this treatment.  Researchers have shown that up to 21% of fat cells can be destroyed by a full treatment CoolSculpting treatment session – and that can add up to considerable inch loss!

CoolSculpting involves no downtime so you can return to your normal schedule following treatment. Results can be seen in twelve to sixteen weeks making it a fast & effective way to sculpt your body!
