Any adult with a stubborn fat bulge is a candidate for Coolsculpting! Coolsculpting is an effective non-surgical<\/i> method for removing or reducing subcutaneous fat.\u00a0 It probably comes as no secret that some areas of fat are harder to get rid of than others.\u00a0 For women, these areas include the chin, lower abdomen, flanks, and thighs.\u00a0 In men, these areas include the flanks and chin.\u00a0 There is no surgical or nonsurgical treatment for visceral or internal fat.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Coolsculpting is not appropriate for all types of fatty conditions.\u00a0 One of the most important steps in your evaluation is determining whether you might be a better candidate for liposuction or surgical excision such as an abdominoplasty.\u00a0 The ideal candidate is a person with an isolated fat bulge, with minimal skin excess or over-hang, and without a lot of stretch marks.\u00a0 Large areas of fat might benefit more from liposuction.\u00a0 Patients with a lot of skin excess will benefit more from a surgical excision.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

We make every effort to make your treatment as comfortable as possible.\u00a0 Because you can expect to spend about an hour with us, we have made the Coolsculpting Room as COOL as possible.\u00a0 We have equipped it with a spa bed, large screen TV equipped with YouTube and Netflix.\u00a0 Or if you simply want to close your eyes and relax, you can choose your own music from Alexa Amazon Music.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

When you arrive for your treatment, your nurse will take your pictures and weigh you in order for us to compare your progress over the 3 month treatment period.\u00a0 Just for the record, Coolsculpting might be effective in reducing fat bulges, but you will not lose much in terms of weight.\u00a0<\/p>

The nurse will draw out the areas to be treated in order to precisely define the treatment plan and the areas that you want to improve.<\/p>

The nurse will then thoroughly clean the area.\u00a0 Afterwords, she will apply a gel applicator pad over the treatment area.\u00a0\u00a0She will apply the applicator to the machine.\u00a0 She will<\/span>\u00a0hit the start button and the treatment will begin.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Coolsculpting is cold… really cold.\u00a0 You will feel the applicator pull your skin into the device, beginning the process of cooling down your skin.\u00a0 The sensation is similar to an ice pack placed over your skin.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

Eventually the area will feel numb.\u00a0 Most patients tell us that the procedure is NOT painful.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Your coolsculpting will take about 30 minutes per area.\u00a0 Because we have invested in 2 devices, we are one of the only treatment centers in Northern Virginia that can treat 2 areas at a time, we can treat 2 areas in 30 minutes.\u00a0 We really want you to get out of the office and back to your life.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

To make your time with us comfortable, we have made your treatment room as comfortable as possible, equipped with a large screen TV so that you can take your mind off of coolsculpting machine sucking on your fat. <\/span>No kids, no husband, no chores, just quiet… Or watch TV, listen to a your Alexa music playlist, or read a book.\u00a0 Your choice.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

A bell will signal the end of your procedure.\u00a0 The handpiece will be removed.\u00a0 The treatment area will appear red and irritated.\u00a0 How do your hand look when you play in the snow?\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

The nurse will begin massaging the area.\u00a0 This part is slightly uncomfortable.\u00a0 How do your hands feel after you come in from playing with the snow without gloves?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

She will vigorously massage the area to break up any crystallized fat.\u00a0 The m<\/span>assaging process helps break up the crystalized fat cells and increases the effect of the treatment by 68%!!
