CoolSculpting For Men?
Targeting Your Beer Belly, Love Handles & Man Boobs
Every man who has tried to lose weight and sculpt their bodies understands certain areas are harder to lose fat in than others. The most common trouble areas include the beer belly, love handles, and even man boobs. Unfortunately, these are some of the most unsightly and embarrassing areas to have fat deposits. Thankfully, these areas can be specifically targeted with this cutting-edge procedure. Men may see up to a 25% reduction of fat deposits in these trouble areas, which can go a long way toward making their bodies look younger and more sculpted.
In recent years, more and more men have been trying out cosmetic procedures to look healthier, younger and more attractive. Many men have tried liposuction in an attempt to give their bodies the muscular and masculine contours that everyone wants. However, liposuction is not necessarily the best option. It is an invasive procedure that can cause extensive bruising.
A Better Option…
CoolSculpting is a relatively new procedure that can enable up to 25% fat loss in targeted areas. It is non-invasive and has a faster recovery time than liposuction.
How CoolSculpting Works
You may wonder how it is even possible to get rid of fat in a non-invasive manner. Well, CoolSculpting accomplishes this by applying two pads cooled down to very low temperatures to the outside of your body. By carefully controlling the temperature of the pads, doctors can target fat cells but leave skin and muscle untouched. The cold temperatures damage the fat cells. They eventually are destroyed and your body becomes more sculpted.
A quick look at how liposuction works shows why it is so much more invasive and dangerous. First of all, it involves cutting open your skin over fat deposits. This creates an infection risk and ends up requiring stitches. Next, a tube is inserted into your body and some fat is sucked out. Then, the tube is removed and the process is repeated several times. This results in bruising, bleeding and swelling.
One of the biggest advantages of cryo lipolysis, as the procedure is officially known, is that there is little to no recovery period. In fact, many men who get this procedure get it during their lunch break and simply go back to work that same day. Compare this with similar procedures like liposuction, which often requires a recovery period of several days. This could cause men to miss work or family events. The fact that there is little to no recovery period for this procedure also means that men can get it repeated sooner than they could get another session of liposuction.
CoolSculpting is one of the safest body sculpting procedures available, if not the absolute safest. No incision is necessary. There won’t be any foreign objects sucking fat out of your body. There is little to no risk of infection because there is no incision. In fact, the only sort of anesthetic that may be necessary is a topical cream. Not only is general anesthetic not required, but even local anesthetic is not necessary.
Generally, it takes two to three months for the full effect of the procedure to take place. While this may seem like quite a long time at first, keep in mind that these gradual results mean that no one will know you had a cosmetic procedure done. If you came into the office one day with a dramatically fitter body than you had the day before, people may assume that you had some work done. The results from this procedure take place over a long enough timeline that the body transformation looks totally natural. After the three month period, the results should be permanent as long as you continue to eat right and exercise.
