Sometimes, no matter how much you exercise and regardless of how religiously you follow a healthy diet, there are just some fats that refuse to go away. This is especially true for stubborn fat around the stomach area. This is where CoolSculpting comes into the picture. The latest in non-surgical fat reduction treatment, the treatment is designed to freeze stubborn fats – a big leap from the usual fat-burning procedures for getting rid of excess fats.
What Is CoolSculpting
As mentioned, what the procedure does is freeze stubborn fats located in different parts of the body. You and your doctor can discuss which areas need to be treated to get the best results. Don’t expect a quick fix though, as you typically won’t see results immediately after the procedure. You will have to wait up to three weeks to see visible results.
The results are not immediate because the frozen fat cells are still in the body. But if you allow your body to naturally dispose of these frozen fats, you will see the expected results over time. After three weeks or so, you should be able to see visible results from your CoolSculpting treatment. After about two to three months, you will be amazed at how much fat you’ve lost on the treated area. If the procedure was done on your stomach, you should begin to see a flatter belly after the approximated maximum time (two to three months) has elapsed.
This non-surgical fat reduction treatment is recommended for individuals who are within the 1 to 20-pound bracket of their ideal weight.
The Procedure
During the procedure, you may feel a slight tingling sensation on the area being treated. You may also feel a little bit of pulling or tugging as the tissue is being drawn-up by the applicator. A few minutes into session, you will no longer feel these effects as the cooling technique has caused the area to become numb.
For the duration of the treatment, which can be anywhere from an hour up to two hours, you can relax and listen to music or read a book. You may even find yourself dozing off.
