Up until not too many years ago there were only two approved surgical ways to eliminate unwanted fat; liposuction and tummy tucks. The only non surgical way was to work out for hours on end at the gym and then there was no guarantee that all fat deposits could be worked off.
Many people have found that no matter how hard they try, there are still pockets of fat, usually in the abdominal area that simply are resistant to elimination by exercise. In the past a person would undergo a cosmetic surgical procedure called liposuction, a procedure where the fat was sucked out from under the skin. For people who had lost a lot of weight and ended up with loose skin and a pouch, this was treated by removing sections of the skin and fat and tightening the abdominal muscles at the same time. These procedures have now been joined by Coolsculpting in New York.
Coolsculpting is a non invasive procedure to eliminate unwanted fat deposits. The area where treatment is desired is frozen; the frozen fat then dies. This procedure was used exclusively as a way to cool the skin prior to dermatological procedures but in 2010 it was approved by the FDA as a method for spot fat reduction.
The procedure rarely takes more than 45 minutes and the results are somewhat noticeable after the first treatment. Coolsculpting in New York treatment consists of a cooling cup which is placed on the target area. The cup exerts a slight vacuum which draws the skin in between the two cooling panels. Fat is very susceptible to freezing whereas other tissue is not. The fat cells die and over time they are removed by natural body function. Over time this slow removal of fat cells results in the destruction of the fat layer which was the original target. Although results can been seen early, it may take several months and several treatments before the full effect can be seen.
The process can be compared to liposuction but there is no body invasion. The result is a sculpted body and is most effective on those who have near normal body weight but with just stubborn pockets of fat that simply won’t go away any other way.
If you have stubborn fat pockets that won’t go away but you do not want to undergo liposuction, then Coolsculpting in New York is the answer. Contact Michael A. Fiorillo, MD for more information website
