New year, new you! As we ring in the new year, it’s the perfect time to set some goals for a healthier, happier you. One of the most popular resolutions is to improve diet and exercise. Eating a balanced diet and getting regular exercise can have a huge impact on your health, but have you ever considered CoolSculpting in addition to these plans? Below, the professionals from Faces Med Spa discuss CoolSculpting and how this non-surgical treatment can help you achieve the sculpted, toned physique you’ve always wanted.

What is CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting targets subcutaneous fat, which is located beneath the skin. CoolSculpting is based on the principle of cryolipolysis, which uses controlled cooling to freeze and eliminate fat cells. When fat cells are exposed to freezing temperatures, they crystallize and die, and are then naturally eliminated by the body.

Where Can I Get CoolSculpting Done?
CoolSculpting targets specific areas of the body, such as the stomach, inner and outer thighs, back, under the chin, and arms. Each patient requires a unique course of treatment based on body type and goals. At Faces Med Spa, we offer free consultations so you can discuss your individual treatment goals prior to scheduling a CoolSculpting session to ensure we can help you reach your goals.

What are the Benefits of CoolSculpting?
One of the most significant benefits of CoolSculpting is that it is a non-surgical treatment, which means it carries a lower risk of complications than invasive procedures. It also doesn’t require any incisions, anesthesia, or recovery time. Many patients find CoolSculpting to be so relaxing that they are able to complete activities such as reading, working on a laptop, catching up on Netflix, or even napping. The first five minutes are just a cooling sensation, then you’re all set to sit back and relax for your session.

When Do CoolSculpting Results Appear?
Coolsculpting results can take some time to fully show up, with most patients starting to see a difference in their body shape after about four to six weeks, with optimal results seen around the three months mark. It is also important to note that CoolSculpting is not a weight loss method, it is a body contouring one. To ensure long-term results, make sure that you keep up that exercise routine and healthy eating.

Facial rejuvenation and medical spa services have grown in popularity in recent years, and they’re not just for women—men can also enjoy the benefits a MedSpa has to offer.

From Botox to facials to non-invasive fat cell reduction options, professional med spas like Faces Med Spa cater to men who desire to look and feel their best. In fact, according to Dr. Scott Gerrish, Medical Director over 20% of his private patient base is men from the ages of 18-80 all who want to look their best.

Facial Rejuvenation – Botox and Facials for Men

From dullness and large pores to acne and rosacea to fine lines and wrinkles, facials are a great way to treat a number of skin care concerns for guys. Guys skin is unique and a skin treatment or facial should be designed to target your specific skin care concerns, and a professional Med Spa will provide you with some take-home skin care options to provide optimal results after treatment. At Faces Med Spa we offer professional medical grade take-home skin care treatment options from reputable skin care companies such as Obaji, NeoCutis, and Intraceuticals so your skin can continue the results started in the medspa.

Botox is another option that many guys turn to for the treatment of moderate to severe forehead lines between the brows, as well as crow’s feet lines. Guys are turning to Botox to shave off a few years especially in today’s ultra competitive job market. Results from Botox can be seen within a week and will vary based on the number of units used and the areas treated. If people are frequently asking if you are tired or mad Botox can take the edge off of facial lines that can be interpreted  at harsh.

Additional facial rejuvenation options for men include Chemical Peels, Microdermabrasion, fillers such as Restylane and Voluma, and laser resurfacing treatments. A reputable Med Spa professional will take the time to get clear about your specific skin care needs so a personal plan of action can be created for optimal results.

Fat Cell Reduction and CoolSculpting

Want a little less to love in the love handle areas?  For men looking to reduce fat in those stubborn hard-to-lose areas, CoolSculpting might be the answer. CoolSculpting is the first and only FDA-approved fat reduction option. It requires no cutting, anesthesia, needles, or downtime and has been approved to treat fat around the abdomen, outer and inner thighs, sides, and under the chin. By safely and precisely freezing fat cells in these areas, the cells are naturally reduced from the body, resulting in a more toned-looking body. The number of treatments required will vary per person, and many see results in as little as two weeks.  See what John had to say about his medspa experience with Dr. Gerrish.

Debra Messing

Emmy Award-winning actress, comedienne, and mom, Debra Messing, joins the CoolSculpting movement! Learn more about why Debra opted to have CoolSculpting to help her feel “as authentic and beautiful as possible” during life’s. #CoolMoments.

 

In Debra’s Words: “CoolSculpting is my best discovery of the year!”

The CoolSculpting ambassador describes the fat-freezing procedure as a miracle. “Unless you’re 12, everybody has different parts on their body that they’d like it to be a little smoother or a little flatter. I kind of liken it to getting facials—I go to get a facial, they do their thing, I come out, I feel more confident, I feel prettier, and that’s it. But the difference is, facials don’t last as long. This isn’t about trying to be perfect or about trying to attain some sort of unrealistic idea of what beauty means, it’s about just embracing yourself. It’s like, I like myself, I like my body, it’s just a slightly better version of it.”

Don’t Let Your Double Chin Be The Only Thing You See

Say goodbye to your double chin with CoolSculpting. Say hello to a younger you in the mirror.

Do you get aggravated when you look in the mirror and you see the fat under your chin? You might refer to this as a “double chin,” as so many other frustrated men and women do. Under the chin is one area of the body where you can work your heart out and be on the best nutritional plan possible, and the fat will still remain.

Up until the past couple years, the primary option for people to get rid of their double chin was surgery. Fortunately, CoolSculpting is an FDA-approved treatment that requires no needles, anesthesia, or downtime, and it eliminates fat cells permanently. Even better, Allergan/ZELTIQAesthetics, the maker of the CoolSculpting procedure, continues to improve the CoolSculpting technology, and one way they’ve done that is by creating the CoolSculpting Mini. The CoolSculpting Mini helps practitioners better treat smaller and more difficult to reach areas of fat, like the fat under the chin.

How Do The CoolSculpting Mini and CoolSculpting treatments work?

Through an advanced cooling system, CoolSculpting freezes fat cells in targeted areas. The frozen cells are naturally eliminated from the body and only healthy cells remain. Once the fat cells are eliminated, they are removed for good.

What can I expect during and after my CoolSculpting Mini Treatment?

The CoolSculpting Mini is a handheld device, which uses vacuum suction to adhere to the skin when placed over the treatment area. Two cooling plates are on each side of the device, and these plates safely cool the skin and freeze the fat cells in the target area.

Patients often report they are quite comfortable during the procedure. Many experience a cooling sensation within the first 10 minutes of treatment. The area then becomes numb for the remainder of the treatment. There’s no cutting, needles, or anesthesia used. With no downtime, many patients return to regular activities as soon as they are through with the procedure.

How many treatments will I need to get rid of my Double Chin?

Hundreds of CoolSculpting Mini treatments were conducted during clinical trials, and many were very satisfied with the results. Results can be seen within a couple weeks of treatment, though maximum results can be seen at about the two-month mark.

Many get the results they desire after just two treatments. However, the number of treatments and results will vary based on the amount of fat and the individual’s body chemistry.

CoolSculpting can help you eliminate fat in other hard-to-lose areas.

CoolSculpting technology is FDA-approved to treat fat of the abdomen, sides, outer and inner thighs, and under the chin. Millions of CoolSculpting treatments have been conducted with positive results throughout the world. More and more people are turning to CoolSculpting to achieve the body they desire.
