Cryolipolysis: Everything You Need to Know About Freezing Fat

September 15, 2020

Cryolipolysis: Everything You Need to Know About Freezing Fat

Cryolipolysis is the process behind the most popular, non-invasive fat reduction treatment on the market, CoolSculpting. This technology reduces fat cells by exposing them to precisely controlled temperatures. Better known as freezing fat, Cryolipolysis is proven to reduce stubborn bulges that notoriously resist diet and exercise. It is the only safe and effective way to reduce fat cells. Results are natural and long-lasting. Common treatment areas include the belly, love handles, chin, upper arms, and more. Read on to learn more about Cryolipolysis and Cold Sculpting and how freezing fat can help change your entire physique.

The Discovery of Cryolipolysis

Cryolipolysis was first discovered by two Harvard scientists when they observed cheek fat reduction in children who sucked on popsicles. By following this phenomenon, they were able to develop the science of Cryolipolysis. One of the Harvard scientists, Dr. Manstein, explained the concept by saying, “Fat freezes at a higher temperature than water. Think of butter and water in the refrigerator – one is solid, the other remains liquid.” They realized that by exposing fat cells to cold temperatures, they could freeze them without freezing or damaging skin tissue. This is possible because skin cells are composed of mostly water. They have a much lower freezing temperature than underlying fat cells.

How Cryolipolysis Works

CoolSculpting reduces stubborn bulges by inducing Cryolipolysis. An applicator is used during treatments to isolate fat deposits such as belly fat and expose them to precisely controlled cooling. The temperatures of CoolSculpting treatments are cold enough to freeze subcutaneous fat, but not cold enough to harm the surrounding tissue or skin. When the fat cells are frozen, they crystallize, and the membrane ruptures. Once the membrane ruptures, the cell can no longer do its job of storing fat. When this happens, the cell dies and eventually processes out of the body as a form of waste. Several weeks after your treatments, the body will naturally gather the dead cells and dispel them via the lymphatic system. Once they have been removed from the body, they can never regrow. CoolSculpting provides long-lasting fat reduction thanks to the innovative science of Cryolipolysis.

Cryolipolysis Risks and Side Effects

Prospective CoolSculpting patients tend to worry about Cryolipolysis risks and side effects. Luckily, CoolSculpting has one of the highest safety profiles. Treatments are virtually painless and require minimal to no downtime. Compared to invasive surgery like liposuction, Cryolipolysis is the best non-invasive choice as it has minor drawbacks. The most common side effects tend to be possible bruising, swelling, redness, or tenderness at the treatment site. If a patient experiences these side effects, they tend to dissipate quickly. Most side effects that occur are due to technician error or the use of counterfeit equipment. The best way to safeguard against risks or side effects is to select a licensed CoolSculpting provider to administer this popular fat reduction treatment.

Cryolipolysis Cost

The cost of CoolSculpting is a concern for most potential patients. The truth is that the cost of CoolSculpting with Cryolipolysis varies per person. There are several things that influence the cost of your treatment, including the treatment areas, the number of cooling sessions needed, and the size and shape of the applicators used during your treatment. The best way to receive your personalized treatment cost is to schedule a free consultation. During your visit, you can speak about the cost of CoolSculpting with a knowledgeable technician. If this treatment using Cryolipolysis is suitable for your body and needs, they create a plan that fits your needs and budget.

Is Cryolipolysis Right for Me?

To effectively reap the positive benefits of CoolSculpting, it is crucial to determine if you are the right candidate for the Cryolipolysis procedure. This fat reduction treatment works best on localized fat deposits in men and women who eat healthily and work out consistently but still struggle with stubborn fat cells. Cryolipolysis is not a weight-loss treatment and should never be used to treat obesity.

How Much Does CoolSculpting Cost? Defining CoolSculpting Prices

August 30, 2020

How Much Does CoolSculpting Cost? Defining CoolSculpting Prices

People search the internet asking how much does CoolSculpting cost? It is a valid question since fat freezing is the #1 noninvasive fat reduction treatment in the world.  Yet, the overall cost of CoolSculpting treatments vary per patient, depending upon their specific treatment plan. Read on to learn what determines CoolSculpting prices and how to save money on your fat reduction treatments

The CoolSculpting Treatment

To understand CoolSculpting prices, it is essential to comprehend how the fat freezing process works. To start, the Altman Aesthetic Center in Purchase, NY, will place a single CoolSculpting applicator over a stubborn bulge. This applicator then draws subcutaneous fat cells to the surface and freezes them to death, employing controlled cooling. Depending on the size of the applicator, this procedure takes between 30 to 90 minutes to complete. One cooling session, using a single applicator, constitutes a cycle.

How Much Does CoolSculpting Cost?

CoolSculpting prices include the number of cooling cycles and the type of applicator used during that cooling session. Mirrored treatments, such as love handles, require two applicators—one per flank. This results in two cycles.

The Shape and Size of the Applicator

CoolSculpting applicators come in various shapes and sizes, each designed to contour specific areas of the body. This provides a lot of versatility in the fat freezing process. The number and size of applicators used to treat particular areas depending on the patient’s body size and type. For freezing belly fat, one patient may require the use of two small applicators. Another individual may need one large applicator. Combining one large and one small applicator offers an additional treatment option.  During your complimentary consultation, your CoolSculpting provider will professionally assess your body size and type.

The sizes of applicators vary per price. A large applicator covers double the treatment area of a small applicator. Thus, one large applicator will cost double that of a single cycle with a small applicator.

Specialty applicators add another dimension to CoolSculpting. They target specific areas of the body.   For example, the CoolMini treats the submental region and is excellent in tacking neck fat and double chins. Since a CoolMini is a specialty applicator cost of a single cycle differs from other applicators.

Cold Sculpt | Freeze Away Fat | CoolSculpting

August 10, 2020

Cold Sculpt | Freeze Away Fat | CoolSculpting

Millions of men and women Cold Sculpt their fat away for a slim, contoured physique. Also known as CoolSculpting, this revolutionary body contouring treatment reduces stubborn bulges without surgery. Read on to learn more about CoolSculpting and discover if freezing fat is right for you.

Why Millions Cold Sculpt

  • FDA cleared + safe + effective
  • A scientifically proven method of fat reduction
  • Reduces bulges without surgery
  • Minimal to no downtime
  • Up to 25% fat reduction with one treatment
  • Quick, 35-minute treatments
  • Reduced-fat stays gone for good
  • Natural-looking results

What is Cold Sculpting?

Cold Sculpting refers to freezing away unwanted fat and sculpting attractive contours using the CoolSculpting treatment. Cold Sculpting utilizes precisely controlled cooling to target underlying fat cells. When exposed to freezing temperatures, fat cells crystallize, causing the cell’s membrane to rupture. Once ruptured, the fat cell can no longer store fat. The destroyed cells are collected by the lymphatic system and eventually processed out of the body in the form of waste. This fat reduction process is known as cryolipolysis (“cryo” means cold-induced, “lipo” refers to fat cells, and “lysis” implies cell death and removal.)

What Areas Can Be Cold Sculpted?

Coolsculpting can target nearly any stubborn fat deposit located on your body. Popular treatment areas to Cold  Sculpt include:

  • The abdomen (belly fat)
  • The flanks (love handles or hips)
  • The submental region (neck fat and double chins)
  • The upper arms
  • The thighs (inner thigh fat and outer thigh fat, commonly known as saddlebags)
  • Below the buttocks (commonly known as banana rolls)
  • The back
  • The armpit region (bra bulge)
  • And more…

Why is Cold Sculpting So Popular?

CoolSculpting is the leading non-invasive fat reduction treatment in the world. The main reason people love to Cold Sculpt is simply that it works. Scientific studies have consistently shown the efficacy and safety of this fat freezing treatment. Moreover, CoolSculpting is non-invasive. Unlike liposuction, which requires surgery, stitches, general anesthesia, and lengthy recovery times, cool Sculpting is painless, requires no invasive procedures, takes 35 minutes to complete, and allows patients to resume their normal activities immediately after treatment. This makes CoolSculpting the ideal non-surgical alternative to liposuction.

Cold Sculpt Results

Cold sculpting yields results, as can be seen in before and after images. Results, however, are not immediate. The fat-freezing procedure requires 8 to 12 weeks for the lymphatic system to clear the destroyed fat cells from the body. Yet, once removed from the body, those fat cells are gone for good. This leads to long-lasting results.

Is Cold Sculpting Right for Me?

If you suffer from stubborn fat deposits that resist diet and exercise, cold Sculpting may be right for you. The best way to find out is to schedule a free consultation with the Altman Aesthetic Center. As the premier body contouring provider in Purchase, NY, the Altman Aesthetic Center can teach you more about the fat freezing procedure and help you determine if the body sculpting treatment is well suited for your body, your situation, and your aesthetic goals.

CoolSculpting, the Fat You | Weight Gained During the COVID Outbreak

March 26, 2020

COOLSCULPTING, THE FAT YOU | WEIGHT GAINED DURING THE COVID OUTBREAK

 

The COVID 19 outbreak is changing our day to day living. This can be quite stressful. And if you are like most of us, when you are stuck at home, isolated with your family, and stressed out, you eat. You eat a lot. Mindlessly eat. Stress-eat. Boredom-eat. All kinds of eating.

Many individuals have voiced concern about gaining weight while sheltering in place. Fortunately, there are solutions for tackling stubborn bulges.

FAT REDUCTION OPTIONS

First and foremost, to lose weight, diet, and exercise. “But for many of us, diet and exercise are not always enough,” explains Liviu B. Saimovici, MD of the Altman Aesthetic Center. Stubborn bulges cling to our bodies despite our best efforts. For these tenacious fat deposits, your best option may be a fat reduction treatment.

Fat reduction treatments can be both invasive (like liposuction) or non-invasive. CoolSculpting is the world’s most popular way to reduce fat without surgery. “The advanced fat freezing procedure eliminates stubborn fat cells using Cryolipolysis,” explains Dr. Saimovici. Referring to cold-induced fat cell destruction, Cryolipolysis freezes stubborn fat cells to death. The frozen fat cells rupture, losing their ability to store fat. Rendered useless to the body, the destroyed fat cells are collected and excreted as waste. Once fat cells exit the body, they do not come back. Nor are they replaced. This leads to a long-term reduction of fat at the treatment spot.

COOLSCULPTING AT HOME

You may be tempted while sheltering in place, but do not attempt any of the DIY CoolSculpting methods that are available on the internet. CoolSculpting at home doesn’t work. Plus, it’s dangerous. “Placing icepacks on your belly fat will not reduce the bulge. It takes the precisely controlled cooling and suction mechanism (to draw fat cells to the surface of the skin) available with the CoolSculpting machine to safely and effectively freeze your fat,” says Dr. Saimovici.

GET STARTED ON COOLSCULPTING NOW

Before anyone receives a CoolSculpting treatment, they must be deemed a good candidate during a pre-treatment consultation. This in-person assessment may be impossible for many of us, especially as medical spas around the country are shuttering their doors in compliance with current quarantine regulations, or out of an abundance of caution.

Fortunately, Altman Aesthetic Center, the leading provider of CoolSculpting in Purchase, NY, is offering FREE virtual consultations. These consultations are conducted online with Dr. Saimovici or one of our body contouring specialists. During your virtual meeting, you’ll learn more about the procedure, like CoolSculpting cost, get answers to all your questions, and learn if fat freezing is the ideal procedure for you.

Cool Sculpting Before and After | Fat Freezing Results

February 27, 2020

Cool Sculpting Before and After | Fat Freezing Results

Cool Sculpting before and after pictures demonstrate why so many people are raving about this fat freezing procedure. The body contouring treatment is the most popular way to reduce fat without surgery and little to no downtime. And for a good reason. Check out these before and after pictures to see real patient results and find out if Cool Sculpting is right for you.

What is CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is the most popular non-invasive fat reducing procedure using cooling technology. Cryolipolysis, the genius science behind successful CoolSculpting sessions, uses extreme cooling to “freeze fat cells.” While the cooling temperatures do not actually “freeze” the fat, it does crystallize the cell, causing the cell membrane to become brittle and hard. The membrane eventually ruptures, disabling the cell.

During a cooling session, your technician places a proprietary applicator on the skin of the treatment area. The patients will experience a tugging sensation when the machine activates as the skin is gently pulled into the applicator. Patients will also feel an intense cold feeling as the skin is exposed to the calibrated Cryolipolysis cooling.

Afterward, the body initiates a natural immune response that gathers the dead fat cells. The lymphatic system processes them out of the body as waste. Once gone, the fat cells can never return to the body. So many people rave about CoolSculpting because it provides natural, long-lasting results as long as the patient does not gain a considerable amount of weight. Gaining weight will obscure any CoolSculpting results.

Cool Sculpting Treatment Areas

Besides the effectiveness of freezing fat, Cool Sculpting before and after pictures demonstrate how versatile this body contouring treatment is. With the full line of Cool Sculpting applicators, Altman Aesthetic Center, the leading Cool Sculpting provider in Purchase, NY, can target nearly any stubborn bulge from head to toe.

Popular treatment areas include

  • CoolSculpting belly fat
  • CoolSculpting love handles
  • CoolSculpting thigh fat
  • CoolSculpting upper arm fat
  • CoolSculpting chin and below the jawline fat
  • CoolSculpting back fat
  • Coolsculpting bra fat (also known as bra bulge)

CoolSculpting Cost

CoolSculpting cost is a valid concern for anyone considering this cosmetic procedure. The truth is that cost per cooling session varies. The prices depend on the unique needs of each patient. Factors that influence the price include the number of treatments in the patient plan, the number of treatment areas selected, the size and shape of applicators needed, and any patient specials that can be applied to your total cost. The best way to determine your CoolSculpting cost is to schedule a free consultation with a reputable provider to learn more.

CoolSculpting Before and After Pictures*

Freezing fat can reduce stubborn bulges that resist diet and exercise. This is evident in Cool Sculpting before and after pictures. As with any cosmetic procedure, results may vary. * The most effective route for ensuring optimal outcomes, like the ones in these before and after pics, is to:

  1. Determine if the fat freezing procedure is right for you
  2. Choose a provider who is skilled and experienced at performing this technique sensitive process.

Ready for your CoolSculpting Before and After Transformation?

Am I the right candidate? When people see Cool Sculpting before and after pictures, the next thing they ask is if they qualify for the fat reduction procedure. It’s a great question. Not everyone is suited for Cool Sculpting. An ideal candidate is a healthy man or woman who struggles with stubborn fat deposits, despite living a healthy and active lifestyle. To get optimal results, ensure that Coolsculpting is right for you by scheduling a free consultation with the Altman Aesthetic Center.

Finding the best provider. Discerning patients living in Purchase, NY, choose Altman Aesthetic Center for one main reason: Dr. Liviu B. Saimovici, MD. All Cool Sculpting treatments from Altman Aesthetic Center are performed by, or under the direct supervision of Dr. Saimovici. This is critical to ensuring patients receive the best results for their investment.

Choosing a good provider is critical to your experience during your procedure and your aesthetic outcome. Not all CoolSculpting providers are created equal. Choosing a provider with a medical background ensures you receive treatment from a well-trained and highly experienced professional. This is essential. Cool Sculpting is a technique sensitive procedure. Unfortunately, many providers lack experience or medical training. When performed by a fat freezing professional, CoolSculpting results look natural and last. When the fat freezing procedure is performed by someone who lacks experience and expertise, results can vary, and the safety and well-being of the patient may be compromised.

Cool Sculpting Near Me

For the best results possible, choose the best provider. Choose Dr. Liviu B. Saimovici, MD from Altman Aesthetic Center in Purchase, New York. Reach out online or call the office at (914) 600-3479 to schedule a complimentary consultation.

Rested and “Rejuvenated” after a short holiday break, the staff and I are quickly realizing, it’s CoolSculpting season! Our January schedule is full of CoolSculpting consultations. The most obvious reason for the increased interest in CoolSculpting is New Year’s resolutions. Many people have decided 2020 is the year to eat right, be active and get a jump start on obtaining a healthier body. Other consultations have come from newly engaged couples.We’ve learned that December is the most popular month to get engaged in the U.S.These brides-to-be (and grooms-to-be!) are thinking ahead to the biggest day in their lives and wanting to feel and look their best in their wedding attire.

When a patient calls us for the first time, they usually don’t know much about CoolSculpting, other than it is a nonsurgical fatloss treatment. These patients have many questions and some anxiety about what to expect. Our number one objective is to put their minds at ease. Being the owner and physician, I meet with every patient during their initial consultation. During this meeting, wediscuss fat loss goals and body areas they are most excited to transform. We explain what to expect the day of treatment, the days following and when they can expect to see results. Along with a customized treatment plan,I want my patients to leave with an understanding of the science and proven technology behind CoolSculpting and why it the world’s #1 fat-reduction procedure.

Whatever the reason, whether a New year’s resolution, an upcoming wedding, or that summer will be upon us in 150 days, we want our patients to feel comfortable, confident and well informed about their decision to get CoolSculpting.
