Freeze the Fat Away!

At the forefront of plastic surgery, innovative surgeon, Dr. Benjamin Lam offers Coolsculpting in Philadelphia, PA

Renowned for introducing many improvements to breast surgery, facial procedures and body-shaping, Dr. Lam is now able to offer patients the advanced procedure that freezes fat cells, so that they die and are broken down by the body, leaving a smoother, sleeker silhouette.

Approved by the FDA two years ago, Coolsculpting involves a gel sheet being placed over the area to be treated, which is drawn up and cooled by a vacuum pressure machine. Fat freezes at a higher temperature than the surrounding tissue, so there is no damage to the skin or nerves. In as little as an hour, the fat in the treatment area is reduced by an average of 20 to 25 per cent, and the results are permanent.

Coolsculpting is not a way to shed weight–you still have to diet and exercise or have liposuction for that–but it is a method of eradicating the lumpy, stubborn areas of flab that refuse to budge without resorting to injections or the scalpel. Ideal candidates for it are those who are close to their target weight, and simply need a little help to remove the spare tire at their middle, or the fat they can pinch on their inner thighs or back.

No pain, lots to gain with Coolsculpting in Philadelphia, PA.

Some patients might feel minor discomfort when receiving Coolsculpting treatment, but most use the hour that it takes to relax, read or have a nap. Afterwards, they go back to their normal routine whether that be to their workplace or a session in the gym. There are no cuts to heal, no swelling and no need to take time off to recover. You can see a difference in your figure right away, and Coolsculpting keeps on working to reach its full effect in three months.
