5 Reasons Why You Should Try CoolSculpting®

Sometimes, even after working out regularly, you may need something extra to tone your body the way you want. Chances are good that you have seen positive reviews about fat freezing and may have a friend who has tried the nonsurgical body-sculpting strategy. Wondering what is so great about this trendy procedure? In this post, we explore the five top benefits of having CoolSculpting^® done in the Tucson area.

1. It Removes Diet-Resistant Fat

Losing weight by watching what you eat and having an active lifestyle is possible—and a healthy choice—but you might be left with some isolated, bulky areas that do not seem to respond to your efforts. Your body type, genetics, and hormones make you predisposed to storing more fat in certain problem areas. Unlike normal weight loss, which involves creating a calorie deficit and causing fat cells to shrink, CoolSculpting^® gets rids of the fat cells themselves. The device can target specific features. This spot reduction is not possible with lifestyle changes.

2. Clothes Fit Better

Having disproportionately larger areas like a rounded midsection, love handles, or thigh fat can sometimes make it challenging to find clothes that fit properly. After you lose some volume with CoolSculpting^®, your shape will be leaner, meaning clothes will fit better—and you might be able to wear smaller sizes.

3. It Actually Works

Unlike all the gimmicks and fake weight-loss products that promise to help you shed pounds quickly, CoolSculpting^® uses science-backed technology that has been proven to be very effective. The treatment removes up to 25 percent of the fat cells in the targeted area by causing them to freeze, die, and then be gradually flushed out by the body.

4. The Fat is Gone for Good

When you lose weight through diet and exercise, fat cells shrink—and it is always possible for these same fat cells to expand again. With CoolSculpting^®, the fat is gone for good. However, you can create new fat cells if you do not continue with a healthy diet and exercise.

5. There is Virtually No Discomfort or Recovery Time

CoolSculpting^® is non-surgical, so there are no incisions, scars, or anesthesia involved. The treatment is generally painless for most patients. In fact, you usually do not feel much aside from a cool, numbing sensation. This procedure is low risk and typically lasts less than an hour. Many patients feel able to return to their normal activities right after a session, without any need for downtime.
