WALNUT CREEKPockets of stubborn fat can bother even the fittest, healthiest people. Every human body accumulates fat in different areas. Fortunately, CoolSculpting® treats almost all these areas for a more contoured figure. This non-invasive treatment targets hard-to-remove fat to help you see results without surgery or recovery time.
What is CoolSculpting® Body Contouring?
Non-invasive body contouring removes fat without surgery to sculpt your figure. CoolSculpting® is the most popular method of non-surgical fat removal. It works by freezing fat cells without affecting the skin. These damaged fat cells will be removed by your body over time. CoolSculpting® can treat areas ranging from the abdomen to submental (under the chin) fat.
How Many CoolSculpting® Sessions Will I Need?
Each person’s CoolSculpting® treatment plan is customized for their needs. Many people can achieve their desired results with one treatment. Some people choose to have more than one session to remove additional fat. Dr. Aycock and his team will work with you to determine whether CoolSculpting® is the right option for you and can give you the results you hope to see.
What to Expect During a CoolSculpting® Session
The average CoolSculpting® ranges from 30 to 60 minutes. Your provider will apply a gel to your skin and then apply the applicator. You will feel the temperature become colder and may feel some tingling or other sensations for a short time. The skin quickly becomes numb, making your treatment experience comfortable without numbing cream.
Is There Any Downtime After CoolSculpting®?
You can leave your CoolSculpting® appointment and return to your daily routine immediately. There is no downtime required. You may notice some redness, swelling, or sensitivity for a few days. You can resume your exercise routine or any other activities after your session, making CoolSculpting® convenient for even the busiest schedules.
How Long Does it Take to See CoolSculpting® Results?
Your CoolSculpting® results will appear gradually as your lymphatic system filters away damaged fat cells. Most people see results within three to four weeks, with full results after about three months. If you have more than one treatment, your body will have more treated fat to remove.
Once you have achieved your results, they can last a lifetime. You will not grow new fat cells, but the ones you still have can expand if you gain weight. Leading a healthy lifestyle is the most effective way to make your CoolSculpting® results last.
Am I a Good Candidate for CoolSculpting®
Most healthy adults are good candidates for CoolSculpting®. This non-invasive treatment has fewer risks than surgery and is safe for all skin types and tones. CoolSculpting® is not a weight loss procedure, so you will see the best results if you are close to your target weight before treatment. You should not have this treatment if you have certain medical conditions.
Wow. The love handles are dramatically smaller and look much better. I’m pumped for the summer! This treatment works great for those looking to look a little more fit in their trunks. I used to have a pretty good muffin top in trunks or even jeans… No mas! I feel like I look about 10 years younger there now.
I don’t consider myself a fat person, but I absolutely have excess fat that I wish (or now wished) I could get rid of. After 10 years of spending hours on workouts, thousands on trainers, this diet and that- all telling me this way and that way are the best to get rid of my lower belly fat. None really worked though.
The idea of lipo was not an option in my own mind, but CoolSculping, now that was something that sounded perfect.
I was skeptical, but after my consultation at Dr Aycocks office, I felt great about the procedure. The treatment itself really was not that bad- the first 10 minutes of each cycle where it’s the cold numbing feeling, then after that- just hanging out, watching Sex and the City on the TV while the hour passes.
Sore as to be expected for the week after, but nothing detrimental by any means. Then after a few weeks, the inches were disappearing. I will take some pics soon to share but at over 4 months out I am so happy with the results, I have never felt so confident in my tops, jeans, bikinis, everything. It really was exactly what I was looking for and I now feel the best version of myself. I know it may sound cheesy but it’s true! Pics to post soon! – Worth every cent, no downtime, total miracle!
