VLCC Wellness: Coolsculpting: 3 Things to Keep in Mind

Coolscupting is one of the most popular non-invasive, surgery-free treatments used for body sculpting. It uses fat freezing technology known as Cryolipolysis that targets fat cells in the fatty areas of the body. The fat cells die after being frozen and are eliminated from the body naturally.

Coolsculpting is a fully safe procedure approved by the US FDA that can produce visible results in a single sitting. Results can be seen in the first couple of weeks. It is a non-invasive, pain-free and non-surgical process with no downtime. As it is a pain-free procedure you wouldn’t need any anaesthesia. Coolsculpting reduces up to 30 per cent of fat cells in the treated area.

Coolsculpting and weight loss

Many people mistake Coolsculpting for a weight loss procedure. Well, it is not. Coolscupting gives visible results in a single sitting by eliminating the fat cells from the body but does not contribute to weight loss. The weight loss caused by the elimination of these fat cells could be less than 0.5 kg. This procedure is recommended to people looking forward to spot reduction. However, this procedure is not for people battling obesity.

Coolsculpting side effects

While Coolsculpting is an FDA approved procedure when it is performed by people who are not qualified doctors it may cause various side effects. Some of the side effects of coolsculpting are tugging sensation, pain, stinging, aching, redness, swelling, bruising, skin sensitivity and paradoxical hyperplasia. While most of the side effects go away within a few days, paradoxical hyperplasia is a very serious problem which does not go away.

Paradoxical hyperplasia is very rare. It is more common in men than in women. While the reason for this is unknown, it can be treated by liposuction. This is a phenomenon in which the fat cells increase in size instead of disintegrating over the subsequent weeks. Paradoxical hyperplasia is not painful, but it becomes a major problem for people who opted for Coolsculpting to get rid of fats and saw the opposite result.

Coolsculpting results

Coolscuplting is not a surgical procedure that gives instant result. As it is a non-surgical procedure that allows fats to be expelled out of the body naturally, it takes a few weeks for the results to be visible.

However, if you don’t want to go back to your previous shape, you’ll require regular exercise and diet maintenance. Falling back to your old unhealthy habits can cause fat accumulation which makes you go back to your previous shape.
