Am I a Candidate for Cold Sculpting?

Cold sculpting, also known as CoolSculpting®, is a great way to improve your body contour without undergoing surgery. The cosmetic procedure uses the latest technology to freeze unwanted fat and ultimately eliminate this fat from the body to achieve the desired body shape.

 

The procedure, known as cryolipolysis, involves freezing away subcutaneous fat for good sans surgery and downtime. Cold sculpting treatment allows patients to:

 

• Get rid of stubborn fat that will not disappear even after sticking to a healthy diet and following a regular exercise routine
   

• Achieve a curvier body shape
   

• Refresh appearance
   

• Get rid of sagging skin
  
   

Who Is a Good Candidate for Cold Sculpting?

Cold sculpting works for both men and women. The procedure helps remove fat from the following areas: gynecomastia (male breasts), arms, neck, bra fat, flanks, love handles, waist, abdomen, hips, outer thighs, and inner thighs. However, it does not work for everyone. You must be the right candidate for cold sculpting to achieve great results.

 

Signs You Are a Good Candidate for Cold Sculpting

Here are some signs that you are a good candidate to benefit from Cold Sculpting treatment:

 

You Have Enough Fat to Treat

CoolSculpting works effectively when you have enough fat. This does not mean you have to be overweight. For the treatment to be effective, you need to have achieved your target weight but are looking to lose a few inches of body fat to get into the shape you want.

 

You Are in Good Health

Cold sculpting is safe and has fewer side effects. However, you must be in good overall health to get this treatment. Healthy people experience fewer side effects such as pain and bruising.

 

Also, the healthier you are, the faster you will recover after the treatment. You should not get cold sculpting treatment if you have underlying medical conditions such as fibromyalgia. Talk to your plastic surgeon if you have any medical condition to help determine if the treatment is safe for you.

 

You Are Not Thinking of Getting Pregnant

Pregnancy brings about body changes such as weight gain. If you are considering getting pregnant soon, you can postpone cold sculpting treatment until after giving birth. Also, you cannot get cold sculpting treatment if you are already pregnant or are breastfeeding.

 

You Are Looking for an Alternative to Liposuction

Not everyone is willing to undergo surgery to improve body contour. Cold sculpting is a great alternative if you are looking for a non-invasive option to get rid of stubborn fat. This treatment not only provides many benefits but also costs less than liposuction.

 

Bottomline

Cold sculpting is a fast and easy way to lose unwanted fat around your body with none of the surgical risks. It is safer and less expensive compared to other cosmetic procedures such as liposuction.

 

Your plastic surgeon can create a customized cold sculpting treatment plan to help you feel and look your very best. Remember, cold sculpting is not meant to be a substitute for normal weight loss routines like exercise and diet.
