Are you in search of solutions to eliminate diet and exercise-resistant pockets of fat? If so, you have come to the right place. Our experienced providers at MD Brothers are pleased to offer CoolSculpting, the revolutionary fat reduction and body sculpting solution that has taken the cosmetic world by storm. The non-surgical treatment will leave you with beautifully defined contours with dramatic, permanent results!
What Is CoolSculpting and How Does It Work?
CoolSculpting is a cutting-edge cosmetic treatment that continues to grow in popularity as a leading non-surgical solution for eliminating stubborn pockets of fat while tightening, sculpting, and contouring. The transformative procedure is based on a technique called cryolipolysis, which involves using cold temperatures to destroy fat cells without damaging the surrounding tissues.
CoolSculpting is the first and only FDA-cleared non-invasive body contouring solution that utilizes a patented, controlled cooling technology to target and freeze fat cells in the treatment area, crystallizing and destroying them. The body then naturally processes and eliminates the fat cells through the lymphatic system, leaving you looking and feeling fabulous from every angle!
What Areas Can CoolSculpting Treat?
CoolSculpting is a versatile fat reduction solution that is FDA-cleared to remove stubborn pockets of fat under the jawline, under the chin, the upper arms, bra area, back fat, the flank area (love handles), the abdomen, inner and outer thighs, and the banana roll (under the buttocks). Wherever you have unwanted pockets of fat, CoolSculpting may be the perfect solution for you!
Is CoolSculpting a Weight Loss Solution?
Fat reduction and weight loss are two different things. CoolSculpting is a fat reduction solution that should not be confused with a weight loss treatment. Let us explain. During the teenage years, the number of fat cells in the body becomes set for life. Losing or gaining weight does not affect the number of cells. Instead, the size of these fat cells increases or diminishes.
With CoolSculpting, you should experience about a 20 to 25 percent reduction of fat cells in the treatment area. Once destroyed, these cells can never return, leaving you with permanent treatment results.
Are You a Candidate for CoolSculpting?
Candidates for CoolSculpting are men and women 18 years or older who have no underlying health conditions that would interfere with the procedure. To be eligible for the fat reduction procedure, you must be reasonably close to your ideal weight, have exercise-resistant deposits of fat, and lead a relatively healthy lifestyle.
It is important to have realistic expectations. Once again, we would like to stress that this is not a weight loss solution but, rather, a permanent fat reduction solution designed to address stubborn pockets of fat.
To ensure you are a candidate for a CoolSculpting transformation, we invite you to schedule a consultation with our experienced providers. We will evaluate your unique needs and recommend the ideal solution to deliver your desired results.
What Can You Expect During CoolSculpting Treatment?
Your transformation will begin right here at our Chicago office. Our experienced providers will evaluate your unique needs to ensure that CoolSculpting is right for you. Each treatment cycle typically takes 30 to 75 minutes to complete, depending on the treatment area, with the entire session lasting 1 to 3 hours on average.
We will start by applying a gel pad to your treatment area. One of our aesthetic team members will move a special handheld applicator over the targeted area, sending controlled coolness to target stubborn fat while you relax. The procedure is entirely non-invasive with no downtime, meaning you’ll be able to get back to your daily activities right after treatment.
Is CoolSculpting Painful?
There may be mild, temporary discomfort when we start with the strong suction and extreme cold. Some patients report sensations of mild pinching, pulling, tingling, stinging, or cramping. However, when the temperature drops, it has a numbing effect, so you should experience minimal to no pain or discomfort. In fact, many of our patients read, check their emails, or even take naps during the procedure.
What Are the Expected Results?
Many men and women start seeing noticeable fat reduction results as soon as three weeks after treatment. In the following weeks and months, the body continues to process and eliminate the dead fat cells, so you should continue to see improvement in the treatment area. Most patients report dramatic results unfolding over two to four months, with some seeing results up to six months after treatment.
While results may vary from person to person, most men and women require two or more CoolSculpting sessions to achieve their body sculpting and contouring goals. Our experienced providers will recommend the ideal number of treatments to help you achieve the sculpted contours you desire.
Are the Treatment Results Permanent?
Once the fat cells in the treatment area are destroyed, they are gone for good. However, the remaining fat cells can still grow in volume with increased weight gain. That is why we highly recommend maintaining a healthy diet and exercise regimen.
The good news is that the fat cells are dramatically reduced, so your body cannot store as much fat in the treated area as it did in the past. That means that even if you gain weight, the bulges and the unwanted pockets of fat should never return to how they once were.
Is CoolSculpting Safe?
The CoolSculpting procedure is proven and effective and comes with an incredibly high safety record. Its state-of-the-art technology delivers precise cooling to gently target fat cells underneath the skin without harming the surrounding tissues. The next-generation controlled cooling device features built-in safety mechanisms. If the sensors detect that the skin is getting too cold, the system automatically shuts down, ensuring a safe treatment experience.
