Here at Meyer Clinic, we often consult with clients looking to enhance their appearance or who have found that even the most health-focused nutrition and exercise routines haven’t achieved their desired outcomes.
Understandably, many want a safe, effective, and pain-free way to tackle stubborn fat deposits without resorting to unnecessary medications or surgeries. CoolSculpting is one of the treatments we may suggest as a proven, established, and advanced process that represents a gold standard in clinically safe fat reduction.
Here we’ll explain what CoolSculpting is, when it might be a great treatment option for you, and what to expect from a body sculpting treatment conducted by one of our warm, friendly and accomplished team members.
Understanding How CoolSculpting Works as an Elite Fat Reduction Treatment
We’ll start by addressing a common concern! CoolSculpting doesn’t involve a single needle, it isn’t a type of surgical intervention, and there is no downtime involved—this is part of the reason this cutting-edge treatment is so popular.
It’s also proven to work, representing a trusted and credible therapy with long-lasting results. We use an FDA-approved CoolSculpting® Elite machine, which applies controlled cooling to the treatment site, freezing fat cells under the skin to a chilly -11 degrees while monitoring the surrounding skin.
The secret to its success is that once subcutaneous fat cells have been crystallised, those frozen fat cells are flushed through your body through the lymphatic system, which means they are naturally eliminated, and you’ll start to see visible improvements within just a few weeks.
However, it’s important to point out that CoolSculpting, like all effective fat removal treatments, isn’t instantaneous. Most patients see gradual results over the next six to 12 weeks, with the full impact by around 16 weeks, with regular check-ins from our team to make sure you’re delighted with the outcomes.
As you would expect from the teams here at Meyer Clinic, we focus on support and client relationships. We’ll invite you back for a follow-up review at regular stages while providing guidance and insight into any potential lifestyle or nutritional changes that would help augment the results you’re seeing.
Is CoolSculpting Body Contouring an Alternative to Diet and Exercise?
We appreciate that thousands of people have embarked on restrictive diets and workout regimes and haven’t seen the complete outcomes that they would like. However, we would never recommend that a client severely restrict their food intake or push their body too far with strenuous training.
That said, it’s also beneficial to consider your overall approach to improving your body composition based on your own unique goals.
Our 360-degree client wellness philosophy means we are on hand to offer advice about a range of therapies or proactive adjustments you might wish to include within your customised treatment plan.
Depending on your wishes and requirements, we might suggest:
- A personalised nutrition consultation with our award-winning nutritionist, looking at the nutrients that are essential to your specific metabolism and preferences.
- Allergy and intolerance testing to determine any underlying issues that have either affected your ability to improve your nutrition or have impeded previous attempts to reduce unwanted fat cells through diet.
- Hormone balancing and testing if there is a chance that hormonal variations are responsible for changes to your weight and appearance.
- InBody analysis is a type of body composition analysis where we can get an accurate idea of your physical well-being.
This integrated approach works incredibly well. We don’t purely provide fat removal treatments but work closely with you to ensure you have knowledge and information about managing your nutrition, augmenting your energy levels, and addressing any symptoms that have made it difficult to achieve the health and fitness you’d like.
Combining functional testing, body profiling, lifestyle assessments, and your unique makeup gives us the insights we need to tailor our recommendations and help you develop a long-term approach to overall wellness.
What Areas Can a CoolSculpting Fat Freezing Treatment Be Used to Address?
The revolutionary nature of the CoolSculpting treatment process means we can target almost any area where you have stubborn fat cells, including those that are challenging to address solely through a healthy diet and exercise.
While not an exhaustive list, we consult with clients concerned about their abdomen and belly fat, outer and inner thighs, upper arms, bra fat, torso, double chin fat and underarms, looking for a treatment that can help expedite fat loss and improve the appearance of the area, where the skin looks smoother, more contoured and healthier.
The treatment itself takes roughly 35 to 45 minutes, with a longer time depending on the size of the areas you’d like us to treat. Our investments in CoolSculpting® Elite devices enable us to treat more areas in around half the time previously possible.
It’s often best to schedule two to three treatment sessions, with sufficient time between to allow your body to rest and recover. As always, we’ll be happy to discuss the right way forward after a consultation to learn more about your goals.
Choosing the Right Non-Surgical Fat Reduction Treatments for You
Alongside CoolSculpting, we offer a comprehensive range of therapies, treatments, and consultations focused on empowering clients to make informed choices about the solutions that align with their expectations and needs.
There are also scenarios where we might not recommend CoolSculpting, including for:
- Pregnant and nursing mothers.
- Clients with disorders or sensitivities to the cold, including Raynaud’s.
- Cases where there is a potential medical condition, such as diabetes, where correcting dietary imbalances and taking action to improve your health may be the first priority.
- Anyone with a skin sensitivity or condition, such as eczema or dermatitis, in the target areas.
CoolSculpting is incredibly safe, non-invasive, and effective, but we never suggest any one treatment as a universal solution since so much depends on your well-being and health and underlying factors contributing to issues with body fat or weight loss.
Nutritional therapies, health checks, and potential alternatives such as fat-dissolving injections may be more advisable. We’ll walk you through all of the options, the reasons for our suggestions, and what to expect from each treatment or approach to ensure you have all the time you need to make decisions.
