CoolSculpting with Zeltiq®
Finally there is an easy way to permanently reduce those unwanted fat bulges. The Zeltiq Procedure uses a non-invasive method of tissue cooling called cryolipolysis to gently and effectively reduce exercise resistant fat in targeted areas of your body for natural body contouring.On September 8th, Zeltiq received FDA clearance for the non-invasive fat reduction.
Zeltiq has created the revolutionary new non-invasive fat reduction procedure based on breakthrough research by world renowned dermatologists at Massachusetts General Hospital, a teaching affiliate of Harvard Medical School. Using cryolipolysis, a precisely controlled cooling method, the Zeltiq Procedure targets and naturally eliminates fat cells without damage to other tissue.
The result is a noticeable, natural-looking fat reduction that has helped patients lose up to 22% body fat in the area of treatment.
What happens during the procedure?
Your physician attaches a specially designed applicator cup to the desired treatment area. When the procedure begins, you may feel a cooling sensation in the treated area, but little to no discomfort. During the procedure you can read, listen to music, work on a laptop, or simply relax.
Where does the fat go?
The exposure to cooling causes the fat cells to begin a process of natural removal, which gradually reduces the thickness of the fat layer. The fat cells in the treated area are gently eliminated through your body’s natural metabolic process.
How long until I notice results?
You may notice results as soon as three weeks after your treatment, and will see optimal results by two months. At that time, you and your doctor can meet to assess your cosmetic improvement and consider additional procedures as each one results in an incremental fat layer reduction. You may also want to consider procedures on other areas of your body.
How many treatments will I need to see results?
A single procedure can reduce up to 22% of the fat layer in your treated area. Two months after your procedure, you and your doctor can meet to assess your cosmetic improvement and consider additional procedures to achieve even greater fat layer reduction.
