There’s always a pause when thinking of surgical procedures, which has given rise to a need for non-surgical medical aesthetic treatments. These can act as a stepping stone towards shaping our looks to become our ideal selves without the trauma and downtime of surgery—enter CoolSculpting.
As a CoolSculpting clinic in Vancouver, many people look at CoolSculpting as a way to improve the often-complicated relationships we have with our bodies. As a spot treatment for stubborn fat, CoolSculpting is not about looking perfect—but enhancing the appearance of the areas we find problematic, whether that means eliminating a pouch of belly fat or saggy underarms.
Coolsculpting, also known as “fat-freezing” or fat reduction.” is non-invasive with very little downtime. For those looking to refine specific areas of the body, it can be an excellent alternative to liposuction.
Known in the scientific community as cryolipolysis, CoolSculpting involves using a vacuum-like applicator to target and freeze areas of fat. Frozen fat cells crystallize and die before being naturally expelled by the body’s lymphatic system.
CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared to work on different areas, including your thighs, abdomen, flanks, bra fat, underneath the buttocks and upper arms. Since CoolSculpting is a spot treatment process, it’s best to meet with Dr. Kamani to learn if you’re a suitable candidate. Appointments are about 35 minutes long per application, depending on the area being treated. In most cases, the treatment is well tolerated, with patients opting to read, look at their phones, or even nap during the procedure.
Following treatment, the body will naturally eliminate the dead fat cells, which can result in up to 20-25% reduction of stubborn fat in the treated area. Using best practices, Dr. Kamani will put together a customized treatment plan based on your individualized goals, working together with you to achieve results.
Most patients see the best results after the second round of treatment, typically three to six months after treatment.
CoolSculpting isn’t a magic wand—and it’s not a replacement for a healthy diet or exercise. However, for patients looking to fine-tune pockets of stubborn fat, CoolSculpting can be an excellent option.
