Look better and feel great with CoolSculpting®, a new FDA-approved fat-reduction treatment touted as a revolutionary and innovative non-surgical liposuction alternative. No surgical incisions, no needles, no anesthesia, no scarring. And best of all, there’s no downtime. That’s right – you can resume your normal activities right after the procedure. CoolSculpting® targets and destroys fat cells, resulting in a more natural-looking reduction in fat bulges. It is important to note, however, that CoolSculpting® is not intended as a weight loss procedure. The best candidates for CoolSculpting® are people who have small localized areas of stubborn fat that don’t respond to diet or exercise.
FREEZE STUBBORN FAT AWAY, SAY NO TO SURGERY CoolSculpting® Procedure CoolSculpting® utilizes technology that lowers temperature to attack and destroy fat cells. Through a process called cryolipolysis, fat cells are destroyed after they are brought to just above freezing temperatures. During the procedure, spot fat is suctioned into one of five hand pieces, selected based on the area to be treated. It targets the fat calls, which are brought to near-freezing temperature without harming the tissues, nerves, or skin. The entire procedure takes about an hour. Once the treatment is completed, the patient’s body absorbs the fat cells and their metabolism functions to remove dead fat cells from the body. Results can usually be seen within eight weeks following treatment, with maximum results occurring in six months or less.
CoolSculpting® removes approximately 20% of the targeted area of fat. While some patients desire a second treatment, CoolSculpting® does not tighten the skin. Renew MD utilizes a second procedure called Venus Freeze™, which shrinks leftover fat cells, promotes cellulite reduction, and tightens skin using radio frequency and multi-pulsed magnetic energy to stimulate collagen. Renew MD is the only facility in Northern Nevada that offers both CoolSculpting® and Venus Freeze™.
