"Eliminate Inches with Coolsculpt!" -Dr. Kimberly Cayce Mon, Mar 7 2011
Women and men alike, we all have that unwanted lump or bulge. No matter how hard we diet and exercise, there is always one stubborn area (or maybe more) that just won’t budge. Some may consider liposuction, but for many, they can’t afford the downtime, don’t want to face the associated pain, or just can’t justify the associated risks with liposuction. In fact, statistics show that more and more Americans are moving away from invasive surgical procedures. Yet, we still want that sleek, chiseled, youthful physique.
Dr. DeSpain and I researched the world of non-invasive fat reduction/body sculpting for nearly a year. Up until now, we were skeptical of the science and underwhelmed with the results they delivered. However, we recently found the only non-invasive device FDA-approved for permanent fat reduction known as CoolsculptingTM. This technology, developed by well-respected physicians and scientists associated with Harvard Medical School, is something we believe in. We believe in its science, safety, and reproducible results.
DeSpain Cayce Medical Spa is proud to be the first in mid-Missouri to offer CoolsculptingTM, which utilizes a precisely controlled cooling method called Cryolipolysis™ to target, cool, and eliminate fat cells without damage to other tissue. After a one- to three-hour CoolSculptingTM procedure, the patient's body goes to work. Over the next two to four months, the crystallized fat cells break down and are naturally eliminated from the body. It is not meant to be a weight loss system, but rather eliminate that problematic bulge that all of us have somewhere on our body. And, of course, you would be encouraged to follow a healthy diet and exercise regimen to help achieve and maintain results.
• It involves no needles, surgery or downtime.
– Since the CoolSculptingTM procedure is non-invasive, patients can resume daily activities including work and exercise, immediately following treatment.
• It’s comfortable.
– CoolSculptingTM patients can sit or lie comfortably and read, work on their laptop or even nap during the procedure. The procedure is performed in our medical office, under the supervision of our board-certified dermatologists.
• It’s convenient.
– Procedures last about one to three hours, so treatment can easily be performed during a lunch hour or without major disruption to the day.
• The results are dramatic.
– Patients can expect an average 20% reduction of fat in the treated areas with each treatment session in as soon as three weeks following treatment. Patients can have additional procedures for more pronounced effects if they desire.
Is CoolsculptingTM right for you?
1. Are you within 10 to 25 pounds of your ideal body weight?
2. Do you have noticeable bulges or bumps that you would like reduced?
3. Do you want subtle, natural-looking results?
4. Do you want a procedure with little to no pain or discomfort?
5. Do you need a procedure with no downtime?
6. Do you prefer a natural process over drugs, chemicals, or surgery?
Currently, CoolsculptingTM is available to treat persistent bulges on the abdomen, love handles, back, inner thighs, or area just beneath the buttock. We foresee expansion to further treatment areas in the future. We are truly excited to be offering this cutting-edge technology!
