Introduction
In the past, plastic surgery procedures like liposuction were the only option for removing these isolated “trouble zones.” But thanks to CoolSculpting®, you can permanently remove frustrating pockets of fat and reshape your body without surgery.
Our Clareo Cool offices offer the latest, most advanced CoolSculpting® technology available. When you visit us in the Boston area for your CoolSculpting® procedure, you’ll enjoy convenient, discreet treatments in as little as 35 minutes. Contact us today to find out how CoolSculpting® can help you get the body you’ve always wanted.
What It Is
CoolSculpting® is a completely noninvasive fat reduction treatment that can help you safely eliminate unwanted fat from almost anywhere on the body. The procedure received FDA-approval in 2010, and has since become one of the most trusted nonsurgical methods of fat loss. CoolSculpting® helps you slim down by freezing away unwanted fat, and can result in up to 25% fewer fat cells in a treated area. With the help of CoolSculpting®, your body will look sleeker and more sculpted with fewer bumps and bulges.
How It Works
CoolSculpting® destroys unwanted fat using a unique fat-freezing process called cryolipolysis. During treatment, CoolSculpting’s controlled cooling technology chills fat cells while leaving the surrounding skin and tissue unharmed. The frozen fat crystalizes and dies. Over time, these cells are metabolized and removed from the body. This results in fewer fat cells and leaves you with a tighter, trimmer figure.
What It Treats
Almost any area of the body can be treated with CoolSculpting®. Our Clareo Cool offices often recommend CoolSculpting® for people who are bothered by one or more of the following:
- Love handles
- A muffin top
- Large hips
- Back fat (or “bra-line” fat)
- Saddle bags
- “Bat wings” (loose skin and fat under the arms)
- A double chin
- Inner thigh fat
For people who want to treat more than one area at the same time, we offer DualSculpting. DualSculpting uses two CoolSculpting® machines to maximize your fat removal while minimizing overall treatment time. This approach also reduces the number of visits you’ll need to make to our office, allowing you to enjoy your new body sooner.
Who It’s For
If you’re looking to lose a few inches without extreme dieting or surgery, CoolSculpting® is for you. CoolSculpting® works best for people who are at a healthy weight but have small areas of fat that don’t respond to diet or exercise.
It’s important to note that CoolSculpting® – while extremely effective – is not a weight loss procedure. Individuals who need more substantial fat removal are not good candidates for CoolSculpting®. Additionally, those with unrealistic expectations about what the CoolSculpting® procedure can achieve may not be suitable for treatment.
The Treatment
Your CoolSculpting® treatment should take an hour or less, depending on the size and number of areas treated. There’s no preparation needed before your procedure, and you are free to go back to your normal routine immediately after.
During treatment, cooling panels are placed on the areas of unwanted fat. You will feel a suctioning sensation as the CoolSculpting® handpiece draws the skin between the panels. A feeling of intense cold will occur during the first 10 minutes of your treatment. This may feel uncomfortable for a moment, but not unbearable, and most people tolerate it well. The feeling of cold will become less noticeable as your procedure goes on.
Once your CoolSculpting® session is over, you may have some swelling, soreness, or redness at the treatment site. This is temporary and should resolve in a day or two. There are no restrictions after CoolSculpting®, and so you can go back to work and your daily activities.
The Results
The results of CoolSculpting® appear gradually over the course of about 3 months – just as if you had lost the fat naturally. You should notice that your clothes fit better and your body looks slimmer and more contoured than before. With additional CoolSculpting® treatments, your results can be even more dramatic.
