Good day, I am interested in modeling and have 2-3 inches to lose on my hips. Exercise and diet did not work for me, and liposuction is not an option as I take Coumadin daily. I am interested in a non-surgical treatment to take the 2-3 inches off my hips. What would be the most effective procedure for me? And if you offer that treatment and are located in Ottawa or Toronto, I would love to hear from you.
Answer: Non surgical modality to reduce hips CoolSculpting has FDA approval for fat reduction since 2010. CoolSculpting freezes the fat cells. Fat cells are more susceptible to damage by freezing than the other cells, (nerve, vessel, bone, etc.), around them. The fat cells die via a process called apoptosis, (programmed cell death). The number of fat cells are therefore reduced. This happens over a period of time, so the body is not overwhelmed with dead fat cells. The body will take these cells up, process them and excrete them, just as any other cell. The remnants are filtered through the liver, and then excreted eventually via stool.

Answer: Most effective non-surgical procedure to take inches off my hips? If one is not a surgical candidate and if one is willing to be satisfied with a modest reduction in one's contour, either noninvasive laser or cooling therapies have been shown effective. This includes coolsculpting system and also Sculpsure laser system. Each modality has its pros and cons. Do remember, however, that results achieved can vary a bit from individual to individual and in general tend to be mild in comparisons to results from surgical liposuction.

Answer: Quick Fix for The Hips -- There isnt one! I wish there was a quick fix for the hips, the only one that works best is liposuction and this can be performed in patients on blood thinners. I suggest you see a physician who can work around this issue. However, there are other treatments avaialble like ultrashape/coolsculpting that work to remove some of the fat each treatment but the results take a few months to see and you will need a series of treatments. Please see a body contouring expert. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: CoolSculpting to reduce abdominal fat It is difficult to a recommendation without photos or an in-person examination, Generally speaking, though, CoolSculpting is an effective and safe non-surgical procedure for most patients who want to reduce abdominal fat. In one study done on CoolSculpting, patients saw as much as a 23% reduction in abdominal fat thickness three months after the procedure.
