Many women aspire for a slim and toned abdomen.. Sometimes, even with regular exercise and a strict diet, it can still be difficult to shed those extra pounds. Between CoolSculpting and taking slimming pills—two common alternative methods to eliminating fat—which is more effective?
Slimming Pills
Generally, slimming pills can be categorized into three groups: licensed pharmaceutical drugs, unlicensed pharmaceutical drugs, and natural slimming supplements that are sold over-the-counter. While you may hear about some patients having success with slimming pills, this doesn’t necessarily mean they’ll be effective on you as everyone has a different body type and makeup. Additionally, what makes slimming pills dangerous is that these drugs might react with each other and cause any number of side effects. It’s recommended that you consult with your doctor first before turning to these solutions.
CoolSculpting
On the other hand, CoolSculpting is a safe and FDA-approved non-surgical fat reduction treatment that is backed by clinical testing. This means you can lose those extra inches on your waist without any risk to your health. Aside from treating stubborn belly fat, CoolSculpting is also effective on one’s love handles.
A breakthrough in fat reduction technology, CoolSculpting works by cooling and crystallizing targeted fat cells which are then naturally disposed of by the body. The best candidates for CoolSculpting are those who are within 1-20 pounds of their ideal weight. Many who opt for this procedure are women who need the extra help when diet and exercise aren’t enough.
