CoolSculpting vs. Liposuction Part 2

In our last blog, we explored the general differences between liposuction and CoolSculpting®. Depending on your situation and goals, one or the other will be better for you. At Front Range Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, we pride ourselves on getting to know our clients and giving them the unique treatment they need. In this blog, we will explore some of the advantages and disadvantages of liposuction and CoolSculpting.

Why CoolSculpting® is Great for Men Part 2

If you see “fat reduction treatment” and immediately think of scars, pain, and long-term recovery, we have great news for you: you can avoid all these things and still get the fat reduction with CoolSculpting®! This proven non-surgical liposuction targets troublesome fat, and it works best if you are close to your goal but plagued by fat pockets that just won’t go away.

How Soon Can I Get a Second Treatment?

If you are not familiar with CoolSculpting®, it is a process created by Zeltiq for removing fat in certain areas of the body. Zeltiq is a medical technology company that has created a way to reduce fat cells by cooling them just enough. The cold temperatures kill fat cells, which are then carried away by the body. It is a revolutionary process that delivers results for far less discomfort, time, and recovery than other methods.

Can CoolSculpting® Be Used on the Face?

Traditional liposuction is invasive and requires anesthetic and a recovery period, which makes it a significant time investment. The good news is, a company called Zeltiq has invented a new method for removing unwanted pockets of fat: CoolSculpting®. CoolSculpting is a non-invasive fat reducing procedure that takes minimal time and allows you to return to normal activities right away. It is so brief, it can be done on a lunch break depending on how many areas you need! It is a permanent fat removal that kills your fat cells.

CoolSculpting® and Insurance

When you consider a procedure, the first question is usually ‘will my insurance cover it?’ Because CoolSculpting is an elective cosmetic procedure, (meaning it is not crucial to your survival), insurance companies will usually not cover it. Even though insurance companies will not cover CoolSculpting, that does not mean you lack options. Many cosmetic surgery offices offer financing plans. If you feel that CoolSculpting is what you need, go ahead and make appointments to meet with surgeons and see what options there are.

CoolSculpting® and Love Handles

If you want to reduce or eliminate your love handles in Loveland, there are several options available to you. The two main options will be an invasive procedure like liposuction and a non-invasive treatment like CoolSculpting. Though liposuction is great in certain situations, Coolsculpting can be perfect for the love handle area.

Can You Be Too Old For CoolSculpting® Treatments?

Being non-invasive and effective makes CoolSculpting a very popular alternative to traditional liposuction. This relatively new development in non-surgical liposuction gets the job done and allows patients to return to work immediately – they get the benefits with a minimal recovery period! Because it is new, there are still many questions about it. One of these concerns age: can you be too old for these treatments? Do they become harmful at a certain age?

Ready To Freeze Your Fat? Is Coolsculpting Right For You?

Unlike most other methods of fat reduction, our Loveland CoolSculpting procedure involves no needles, surgery, or downtime. Patients often spend procedure time reading, working on their laptops, or simply relaxing. CoolSculpting® is an innovative fat elimination technique that harnesses the power of cooling to destroy unwanted and stubborn fatty deposits around the abdomen, waist, thighs, and buttocks that have proven resistant to healthy lifestyle changes. CoolSculpting literally freezes the fat cells in the target area, causing them to die and be naturally and be reabsorbed by the body’s natural metabolic processes.
