For most of us, diet and exercise aren’t enough to remove stubborn pockets of fat on your body. What’s worse is that not all of us can be candidates for severe invasive procedures or even want the inconvenience of time-intensive recovery periods. Thankfully, Aesthetx has a solution: the revolutionary new fat reduction procedure called CoolSculpting®.
How Does CoolSculpting® Work
CoolSculpting® works through an ingenious fat freezing process called Cryolipolysis™, which specifically targets fat cells under the skin. The basic science behind Cryolipolysis™ is that there are specific temperatures that freeze fat, but leave surrounding tissues unharmed. CoolSculpting® cools the treatment area down to this temperature, killing the fat cells under your skin. Gradually, the remnants of the fat cells are metabolized by the body and naturally flushed away, eliminating them permanently. The CoolSculpting® procedure will be performed with the patient typically comfortably reclining or resting. A cooling panel will then be placed directly on the treatment area, then the panel will use gentle suctioning and cooling to deliver the Cryolipolysis™ treatment. It’s as easy as that. CoolSculpting® is a gentle procedure, and oftentimes the cooling action of the treatment completely numbs the target area. The fat freezing typically only takes about an hour to complete. In the meantime, you can answer emails, read a book, or even take a nap while fat freezing does all the work for you. For the optimal treatment of smaller bulges, Aesthetx offers a specialized device called the CoolMini applicator. Thanks to the efficiency and the unparalleled levels of safety and comfort of CoolSculpting®, you might only experience some temporary redness from the treatment area; otherwise, there’s no downtime or recovery period, and you can return to your daily activities immediately.
