San Antonio Cosmetic SurgeryCoolSculpting Can Help You Lose the Bulge without Surgery

When your usual diet and exercise routine isn’t helping take off those extra inches around your waist, hips, and thighs, a body contouring procedure may be your only option. However, you may not have to go under the knife to improve your figure.

CoolSculpting in San Antonio is a non-surgical procedure designed to freeze away fat cells and get rid of stubborn fat permanently. The procedure is performed in about an hour in our office and patients can return to regular activities right after their treatment. CoolSculpting has proven to be an effective method for reducing body fat by up to 25 percent in common problem areas such as around the belly, love handles, and inner thighs. If you want to slim down for summer and get rid of those unsightly bulges, talk to Dr. Ortegon about the benefits of this non-surgical body contouring procedure.

Should I Get CoolSculpting in San Antonio?

The CoolSculpting procedure is designed for people who are struggling to lose those last few inches of body fat. Just like liposuction, it is not a weight loss procedure. However, unlike liposuction, you won’t see results for several weeks after your treatment. The procedure works using a technique called cryolipolysis which freezes the fat cells until they die without causing any damage to the skin or surrounding tissues. The fat cells are removed by the liver over the course of about three months.

You may be a good candidate for this body contouring procedure if you:

• Have a few pockets of fat that aren’t responding to diet and exercise
• Have considered liposuction but do not want to deal with the downtime associated with surgery
• Have not achieved the results you want with your diet and workout program
• Have a busy schedule and don’t have time for a long healing and recovery period
• Are comfortable with waiting a few months to enjoy the final result

Undergoing a CoolSculpting treatment now means you could be enjoying some of the results right in time for swimsuit season! If you’re self-conscious about that belly pooch or want to slim down your inner thighs without surgery, schedule a CoolSculpting consultation with Dr. Ortegon at San Antonio Cosmetic Surgery today!
