Summer is a magical season, where the marriage of brilliantly bright days and late-night sunsets allow for a handful of outdoor events. With weddings, graduations, picnics and beach days likely on your to-do list this season, there’s no better time for a body makeover.
Over the years, you’ve likely tried everything from banning fatty foods entirely from your kitchen to avoiding certain clothing to reduce unwanted fat on your body. To your disappointment, however, you probably haven’t achieved the results you want.
This is where the devoted team at Lickstein Plastic Surgery can help you build up your self-confidence. While a nutritious diet and exercise regimen may help to maintain your weight or shed a few pounds, sometimes you need a little something extra to remove those stubborn fat areas. Dr. Lickstein offers a nonsurgical treatment called CoolSculpting® that is a great alternative to liposuction.
How Does CoolSculpting Work?
If you’ve been searching for a less invasive option to get rid of that persistent body fat, CoolSculpting may be right for you. The procedure is FDA-approved and uses a cooling technology to literally freeze away your problem areas.
This in-office treatment can be done on almost any part of the body, but the most common areas include the chin, arms, abdomen, hips, thighs and back. During the procedure, the technology called Cryolipolysis is used to freeze and diminish fat cells.
While the treatment is done entirely in-office, much of the magic actually takes place after you step out the door. Over the next few months, the frozen fat cells will begin to die off, allowing your body to naturally rid itself of the injured fat cells.
Is it Right For You? With no incisions or anesthesia necessary, CoolSculpting is ideal for both men and women looking to reduce unwanted fat. It’s important to note, though, that ideal candidates for this procedure are already in pretty good shape, but are seeking a slight change. If you are looking for a more remarkable transformation, a traditional liposuction procedure may still be your best option.
Because this is an outpatient procedure, you are therefore awake and free to read, listen to your favorite tunes or just relax. Unlike liposuction, CoolSculpting involves no recovery period, allowing you to return to your everyday routine almost immediately following the procedure. This truly is a simple, convenient way to erase those annoying fat bulges once and for all.
Let’s Talk Results
In the few months post-procedure, you will begin to notice a 20-25% fat reduction in the treated areas. The results are permanent, but it’s important to continue on the path of a balanced and exercise regimen. Practicing a healthy lifestyle will ensure that you enjoy your CoolSculpting benefits for many years.
