My experience with Bloom has been unparalleled. As a practicing physician myself I understand and appreciate the importance of providing the best patient care possible. Cosmetic procedures and choosing the finest practitioner is essential to attain the goals and results you want and Bloom gave me all the satisfying results I was looking for. I am to say the least elated with the cosmetic results that Dr. Nicholas Crawford and Shadilea Johnson have provided. Thank you Bloom!
You can start to see results as soon as 3 weeks after your first treatment, and the most dramatic results will be visible after 2 months. Although your body will continue to flush out fat cells for up to 6 months after treatment, I would expect some sort of observable result by 4 months out. A very small number of patients show limited therapeutic response after treatment, and hopefully this hasn’t been your experience. Factors that might influence the final result include provider technique, unintended weight gain, and your unique metabolic and lymphatic profile. Keep in mind that some patients do require multiple sessions to obtain the desired result. Ask your provider to review your before and after photos with you, for an accurate assessment of your response. Let your provider know about your concerns, and she/he will be able to help guide you. Thanks & be well!
Thanks for your questions! At Bloom Health, we love working with CoolSculpting because of its well-documented safety profile, and it’s proven effectiveness. As you may already know, CoolSculpting is the leading non-invasive fat-reduction treatment in the world, with more than 7 million treatments performed worldwide. It’s been featured in over 100 clinical studies and various controlled trials. The procedure is now FDA-cleared for fat reduction in 9 different treatment areas. The non-invasive nature and the limited downtime of CoolSculpting make it an easy recommendation for our patients. Our patients typically tolerate CoolSculpting without any significant difficulty. When the cooling applicators are applied, there may be some pinching and pulling as the suction applicators draw up the fat between the cooling plates. After about 5-10 minutes, our patients are usually quite comfortable, and may choose to rest, read, or watch Netflix. We monitor the suction and temperature control throughout the treatment. After each CoolSculpting cycle, a vigorous massage is performed on the area to enhance destruction of the fat cells. Sometimes this can be the most difficult part to tolerate, but everyone is different! Because CoolSculpting is non-surgical, you’ll be able to resume normal activities without restriction following your session. Some patients experience minor tenderness, swelling, numbness or bruising, but these effects are temporary and generally resolve within days or weeks. If needed, patients do well with oral arnica, NSAIDs, or Tylenol. If you think CoolSculpting could be right for you, find a certified provider who appreciates your aesthetic goals, and who will help you safely achieve a beautiful result. Ask to speak to staff or previous patients who have had CoolSculpting done, to learn what their experiences were like. Thanks & be well!
The simple answer is yes, CoolSculpting works! CoolSculpting permanently destroys treated fat cells with the proven technology of cryolipolysis. CoolSculpting is the leading non-invasive fat-reduction treatment in the world, with more than 7 million treatments performed worldwide. The results have been demonstrated in over 100 clinical studies and various controlled trials. The procedure is now FDA-cleared for fat reduction in 9 different treatment areas. At our Bloomfield Hills office, we let our patients know that they can typically expect a 20-25% reduction of fat in the treated area. Results become apparent as soon as 3 weeks after your first treatment, and the most dramatic results are visible after two months. Your body will continue to flush out fat cells up to six months after treatment. Keep in mind that some patients eventually require up to 2-3 treatment sessions for best results. Our patients are generally very pleased with their results. Many of our staff have received CoolSculpting and absolutely love what it has done for them! Of course, the most important thing when considering a procedure like CoolSculpting is to find a qualified doctor who understands your aesthetic goals, and who will help you safely achieve a beautiful result. Thanks & be well!
Thank you for your question. Most CoolSculpting providers determine cost based on the number of cycles performed, and the type of applicators used. For example, a single CoolSculpting cycle may cost between $650-800. An area like the abdomen may require 2-4 cycles during one session, so the total cost of the session may range from $2,000-4,000. (Keep in mind that you may eventually require up to 2-3 sessions in that area for best results.) CoolSculpting is a significant financial decision, and patients often weigh this against more expensive fat-reducing therapies, such as surgical liposuction. The good news is that the results of cryolipolysis are permanent and long-lasting. At our Bloomfield Hills office, we offer package pricing and various financing options, making it easy to afford CoolSculpting based on your budget. Of course, keep in mind that the most important thing when considering a procedure like CoolSculpting is to find a qualified doctor who understands your aesthetic goals, and who can help you achieve a beautiful result. Thanks & be well!
