COOLSCULPTING – A popular fat freezing technique is giving patients an alternative option to liposuction and is growing in popularity. Vogue reports that CoolSculpting, also known as cryolipolysis, is the latest trend among people who want to melt away their fat with minimal effort. Now, new research supports the use of CoolSculpting to permanently remove unwanted fat.

A recent review of clinical data shows that CoolSculpting can help with body contouring and has become one of the most common cosmetic procedures. This noninvasive treatment relies on cooling technology to target pockets of fat. Unlike liposuction, you do not need anesthesia or a long hospital stay. The entire procedure can usually be performed in one to three hours, but follow-up visits are encouraged.

CoolSculpting is becoming more popular because it gives you the ability to return to work the same day as the treatment. Your doctor can create an individual plan to target problem areas and focus on forming a natural, contoured shape. The procedure relies on special applicators that look like paddles and have cooling panels. The applicators are applied to your body while you read or watch television in a medical office. Your fat cells are cooled and crystallized during the treatment, so your body can naturally eliminate them. With DualSculpting one can have two areas of the body treated at the same time reducing the treatment time to half hour.
