What is CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting works by freezing fat cells until they die, after which they are naturally and harmlessly flushed out of the body. During the procedure, the CoolSculpting device is simply placed on your body – that’s it! No needles and no invasive surgery.
The results from a CoolSculpting procedure are permanent, although it is always possible to regain weight; make sure you maintain good eating habits and exercise regularly. Depending on how much fat you’d like to lose, you may need multiple sessions.
If you still have a lot of fat to lose, this may not be the right procedure for you. It is not really for getting rid of great amounts of fat; it is used more to tone, sculpt, and contour particular areas. It is for people who have already lost a lot of weight but are having trouble with a few areas of fat. You should also know that it can take 2 to 4 weeks to see results from the procedure, because it takes time for the dead fat cells to leave the body.
Patients love CoolSculpting because of its many benefits:
• It is safe and FDA approved.
• It is a very effective way to tone and contour areas of the body where you have stubborn fat that you just can’t get rid of no matter how much you exercise.
• It is a quick procedure and can be done in your doctor’s office.
• It causes very little discomfort (and there are very few reports of it being painful), and if you do feel discomfort, it can be relieved with an over-the-counter pain reliever.
If you have tried everything to get rid of fat and nothing has worked, it may be time to give CoolSculpting a try! Contact the office of Phillip Dahan, MD, FACS, in Reno, NV, for a CoolSculpting appointment. Call 775-826-4477 today!
