At Skinatomy Laser Clinic, one of the leading providers of CoolSculpting in Toronto and Mississauga, we offer the latest technology and techniques to help patients achieve their desired body shape. In this article, we’ll explore what CoolSculpting is, how it works, and why Skinatomy Laser Clinic is the perfect place to get the treatment.
What is CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting is a non-surgical fat-reduction treatment that uses controlled cooling to freeze and destroy fat cells. It is an FDA-cleared procedure that has been shown to reduce stubborn fat in areas such as the abdomen, love handles, thighs, and chin. The treatment is safe, effective, and has little to no downtime, making it a popular alternative to traditional liposuction.
How does it work?
CoolSculpting uses a process called “cryolipolysis”, which targets and destroys fat cells without damaging the surrounding tissue. During the treatment, a special applicator is placed on the area being treated, which delivers controlled cooling to the fat cells. This cooling process causes the fat cells to crystallize and die, and over time, the body naturally eliminates these dead cells through the lymphatic system.
The treatment typically takes 35-60 minutes per area, and patients may require multiple sessions to achieve their desired results. CoolSculpting is an excellent option for those who have stubborn fat that does not respond to diet and exercise, but it is not a weight loss treatment.
