At McGuiness Dermatology and Plastic Surgery, we want to set the record straight on weight loss.
Oftentimes, people believe that weight loss means eliminating fat. And that’s true to an extent, but there’s more to it than that.
Your body maintains a certain number of fat cells, and that number doesn’t change if you’ve recently lost weight or not. Instead, those fat cells shrink but retain the ability to expand. Furthermore, your genes and hormones determine where your body stores fat (like in your stomach or your hips).
That’s why people have been turning to body sculpting treatments like CoolSculpting, which can reduce unwanted fat cells in the treatment area through the process of cryolipolysis (fat freezing).
In Plano, Prosper, and Flower Mound, here’s what you can expect from CoolSculpting for belly fat reduction.
1 to 3 Sessions
CoolSculpting crystallizes fat cells, causing them to break down over time before your body permanently flushes them through the lymphatic system. For some patients, 1 session is all it takes to see their ideal abdominal contour. For others, they may benefit from additional treatments to see fat reduction of up to 25 percent.
It’s worth noting that this treatment reduces fat in the treatment area. This is not a replacement for a healthy diet, active lifestyle, or weight loss shots.
No Downtime
There’s no need to take an entire day off for CoolSculpting. To reduce belly fat, all we ask for is 30 to 45 minutes of your time per treatment area. After your session, you can continue your day as usual.
Results in 1 to 3 months
You can enjoy a slimmer physique in as little as 3 months. If you receive more than 1 treatment for CoolSculpting, it could take 6 months or more to see full results, but you’ll notice a reduction in belly fat before then.
