Does Freezing Fat Make More Sense Than Using Radio Waves to Remove It?

Coolsculpting is an excellent form of non-invasive  fat reduction for
the right patient. Some applicators take 1 or 2 hours but the new advantage
applicators take only 35 minutes and have significantly less risk for delayed
onset pain (especially in the abdomen). Results are seen at 2 months and
typically 1-3 treatments will be necessary on each area to achieve ideal
results. The number of treatments depends on the amount of fat there and the
patient's goals.  There is not downtime and the results can be impressive
in the right patient.  We also use the Zimmer Z-wave for improved patient
comfort and added results. The best candidates are those who are in pretty
good shape with areas of stubborn fat that won't go away no matter what.

We've seen great results with CoolSculpting, which targets and freezes fat cells and allows your body to naturally eliminate them in the weeks and months that follow. It has a great track record of delivering safe, effective, and reliable results. Typically the ideal candidate for CoolSculpting is someone who is happy with their overall body weight but still struggles with pockets of stubborn, unwanted fat that don't respond to diet or exercise. It's important to remember that CoolSculpting is not a weight loss treatment. The best way to know what's right for you is to have a consultation with an experienced CoolSculpting specialist near you.

I recommend Cool Sculpting over radio frequency for fat removal that is going to be permanent.Body
reshaping can be performed with a cannula that removes fat via liposuction or
with noninvasive technology like Cool Sculpting. With Cool Sculpting there is no cannula
inserted into your body. All treatments
are performed on the surface from the outside in using technology that freezes
the fat. Don’t hesitate to give us a
call in Austin regarding a Body Reshaping Consult at the Upper Room. On our Facebook Page there is an Interview I
recently did with KVUE, a local news station in Austin, that was picked by
affiliates around the United States, including Miami. During the Interview we discussed the
technology of Cool Sculpting as well as it application process.
