Understanding How CoolSculpting Helps with Fat Reduction
At Sculpt My Bod, Dr. Pamela Gallagher and her staff provide a variety of body contouring procedures for patients hailing from across Nassau and Suffolk County. One of our most requested procedures is CoolSculpting for the abdomen region. Thanks to our 25+ years of field experience, we know there isn’t a one-size-fits-all treatment suitable for every patient who walks through our door. However, many of our patients obtain their body image goals through CoolSculpting tummy treatments. CoolSculpting utilizes patented cooling technology to freeze fat cells so the body can expel them naturally. The process takes about one to three months to flush out these destroyed fat cells for noticeable fat reduction in the abdomen area. Whether you have a “muffin top” or “spare tire” around your stomach, CoolSculpting allows you to shrink your waistline down to your desired size without the need for needles.
How Long Do CoolSculpting Abdomen Results Last, Anyway?
One thing we advise people is to be patient with their CoolSculpting abdomen fat removal results. You likely won’t notice overnight fat reduction with CoolSculpting. Rather, it’s a gradual process that may take up to six months to realize fully. One thing is true about CoolSculpting belly fat: the results are permanent. The fat cells in the targeted areas won’t come back. However, that’s not to say you may not experience future fat cell accumulation in non-targeted areas. For this reason, some patients may require multiple CoolSculpting procedures to see optimal results. Always be honest with your goals during your initial consultation so our CoolSculpting doctor can advise you on the best course of personalized treatment to make you look and feel your best.
Analyzing CoolSculpting Stomach Costs for Our Patients
There are several variables that go into consideration when determining CoolSculpting stomach procedure costs for our patients. For this reason, we do not like to give out estimates over the phone. It’s vital you come into our office to discuss your goals in person. We’ll want to examine your treatment area to assess how many fat cells you’re interested in freezing and the likelihood of success for the procedure. The average cost of CoolSculpting is between $2,000 and $4,000, but this will depend on what areas you’re targeting and how many total treatment sessions you’ll need.
Are You a Good Candidate for CoolSculpting at Sculpt My Bod?
Most men and women who lead an active, healthy lifestyle make ideal CoolSculpting candidates, although it is not recommended for everyone. It is not a weight loss surgery alternative if you are obese. For the best results, you should be close to your ideal body weight already. You’ll also need to maintain a healthy lifestyle and sensible diet long after your CoolSculpting treatment. If you have a small amount of stubborn fat around your stomach you can pinch between your fingers, CoolSculpting should be able to produce effective results. This type of fat is commonly called subcutaneous fat. If, however, you have visceral fat around your internal organs caused by obesity, this type of fat is harder and more dangerous to remove and may require an alternative procedure, such as a tummy tuck or surgery. Some patients with excess skin laxity caused by pregnancy or extreme weight loss after a bariatric procedure may also not benefit from CoolSculpting as much as a tummy tuck.
