CoolSculpting, the nonsurgical way to slim down in Algonquin, IL

CoolSculpting in Algonquin at Dermatology Specialists of Illinois is a breakthrough in the treatment of localized fat. These pockets of fat are restricted to specific parts of your body and are frustratingly tough (or impossible) to treat with a sensible diet and exercise. As its name suggests, CoolSculpting uses a proprietary cooling technology to sculpt stubborn areas of fat, gently and effectively. Approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, CoolSculpting treatment is a non-invasive alternative to liposuction, which involves removing fat through small surgical incisions and with a specialized surgical vacuum – at substantial cost to the patient in terms of recovery time, and potential risks of complications. When administered deftly by Dr Vic Khanna and the team, CoolSculpting eliminates the downsides associated with traditional, surgical fat removal techniques.

Body contouring with CoolSculpting

Developed by medical device company Zeltiq Aesthetics, CoolSculpting treatment is based on research conducted by doctors at the Harvard University-affiliated Wellman Center for Photomedicine. Researchers observed that some children developed dimples after eating popsicles, a condition that has an apt name: popsicle panniculitis. This finding was important, because it showed that cold temperatures (in this case, ice) are capable of damaging small areas of fat cells in a selective manner – without destroying the surrounding skin and tissues. Formed in 2005, Zeltiq used these findings to develop a practical, fat-freezing technique; since then, more than five million CoolSculpting treatment cycles have been completed on patients worldwide.

Why CoolSculpting may be for you

Since CoolSculpting is not a substitute for a healthy lifestyle nor is it a weight loss program, appropriate patients should be generally healthy and within 30 pounds of their ideal weight. If you have stubborn bulges in some of the areas mentioned above, you may be a great candidate for CoolSculpting. You should also be prepared to continue to maintain your healthy eating and fitness habits post-treatment. For many patients, that’s not a problem -- they get such a big boost from CoolSculpting, that they’re motivated to maintain that sculpted physique!
