Finish Off Your Weight-Loss Journey With CoolSculpting®
You’ve reached your weight-loss goal but are still frustrated by pesky fat pockets that won’t budge despite dieting and exercise.
At Dermio Dermatology, our specialists offer CoolSculpting® to help refine your results.
This service is currently available at our Munster, IN location and coming soon to our offices in Dyer, Valparaiso, and Crown Point, IN.
This non-invasive, FDA-cleared procedure targets specific areas to provide a smoother, more sculpted appearance without surgery. Over 17 million people worldwide are already enjoying the benefits of CoolSculpting.
How the cooling process works
CoolSculpting uses a process called cryolipolysis. This method uses controlled cooling to freeze fat cells beneath the skin. Because fat cells freeze at higher temperatures than surrounding tissues, the treatment leaves the skin and nerves unharmed while destroying the targeted fat.
Once the fat cells are frozen, they die and are naturally processed by the body over several weeks. This isn't weight-loss surgery like gastric bypass. Instead, it’s a body-contouring tool for those who are already at or near their ideal weight. The procedure can reduce fat in treated areas by about 20% to 25%.
The process is straightforward and typically takes about 35 to 60 minutes per site. Most patients feel a cold sensation and some light pressure during the session, but they can return to their daily activities immediately afterward.
Targeted areas for body contouring
One of the biggest benefits of this technology is that it can treat various parts of the body where fat tends to linger. These areas include:
- Under the chin and jawline
- Thighs and hips
- Abdomen and flanks (love handles)
- Bra fat and back fat
- Underneath the buttocks
- Upper arms
By focusing on these specific spots, we help you achieve the proportions you’ve worked hard for during your weight-loss journey.
Results and what to expect
Most patients begin to see changes as early as 1 to 3 months after their first session. The final results usually appear around the six-month mark.
Because the fat cells are physically removed from the body, the results are long-lasting as long as you maintain a stable weight.
Safety is always a priority for our experts. Some patients experience temporary redness, swelling, or tingling in the treated area, which usually resolves within a few days.
If you’ve done the hard work of losing weight but need help with those final stubborn spots, CoolSculpting could be for you. It’s an effective way to put the finishing touches on your transformation.
