- The procedure is not a substitute for a healthy lifestyle and is not a weight-loss method for people who are severely overweight.
Defined body contours with CoolSculpting Vienna
Summer is getting closer, and many of us want a firm, well-defined body for the warm season. But despite regular workouts and disciplined diet plans, stubborn fat deposits often remain, which can affect your confidence at the beach.
This is where CoolSculpting at Dermacare Vienna can help – a modern and effective method for targeting these stubborn fat deposits. This non-invasive technology offers a gentle alternative to conventional liposuction and delivers lasting results, entirely without lengthy downtime or unpleasant procedures.
What is CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting is a fat reduction procedure that makes fat cells disappear through targeted exposure to cold. Developed by scientists at Harvard University, CoolSculpting is based on the scientifically established finding that fat cells react more sensitively to cold than other types of tissue.
This discovery led to the development of cryolipolysis technology, in which fat cells are crystallised by controlled cooling and thus broken down. During this cold treatment, the skin and the surrounding tissue remain undamaged. CoolSculpting is also the only device that has been officially approved for cryolipolysis by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
What does a CoolSculpting treatment involve?
The CoolSculpting process comprises several steps:
- Consultation and planning: First, a detailed consultation takes place in which the patient's goals and expectations are discussed. It is also clarified whether the patient is suitable for CoolSculpting treatment. A treatment plan tailored to individual needs is then drawn up.
- Treatment: During the treatment, an applicator is placed on the area of the body to be treated. This applicator draws the fatty tissue in by vacuum and cools it to a precisely defined temperature. The treatment usually takes between 35 and 60 minutes per area.
- Aftercare: Because the treatment is very gentle and takes place without surgery, the patient can return to their daily activities immediately afterwards. Temporary redness, swelling or slight bruising may occur, but these side effects subside quickly.
Advantages of CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting offers a variety of advantages that set it apart from other fat reduction methods.
One of the biggest plus points is that the cold treatment is non-invasive and low in pain. Unlike surgical procedures such as liposuction, CoolSculpting requires no incisions or anaesthesia. This means scarring and long downtime are ruled out from the outset. Most patients can return to their normal daily routine immediately after the treatment. This makes CoolSculpting particularly attractive for people with a full diary.
Another significant advantage of CoolSculpting is targeted fat reduction. While diets and exercise often lead to general weight loss, CoolSculpting enables targeted fat reduction in the problem areas through targeted fat freezing. This allows patients to shape their body contours more precisely and according to their individual wishes. This includes areas such as the abdomen, hips, thighs, back, upper arms and chin.
The lasting results are another reason why CoolSculpting is so highly valued. Fat cells that have been specifically cooled by cryolipolysis technology are broken down by the body in a natural way and are not replaced. This means that the reduction of fatty tissue in the treated areas is permanent, provided the patient keeps their weight stable.
Finally, the safety of the procedure deserves emphasis. As already mentioned, CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared and is recognised as safe and effective by notable medical professionals worldwide.
What are the expectations and results?
The results of CoolSculpting are not visible immediately, as the body needs time to break down the destroyed fat cells. As a rule, first changes can be seen after about three weeks. Full results follow after two to three months. Many patients need only one treatment per area to achieve their desired results, while others may need several sessions.
Is CoolSculpting at Dermacare Vienna suitable for you?
CoolSculpting is ideal for people who cannot get rid of stubborn fat deposits despite diet and exercise. By specifically freezing fat deposits, cryolipolysis technology offers ideal support here. However, the procedure is not a substitute for a healthy lifestyle, nor a weight-loss method for people who are severely overweight. Ideal candidates should therefore be in good physical condition and have only a few specific problem areas that are difficult to treat.
At Dermacare, CoolSculpting has established itself as a safe and effective method of fat reduction, with minimal risks and a high satisfaction rate. If you are curious whether CoolSculpting is suitable for you, we recommend requesting a consultation with us. At Dermacare, we will be happy to tell you about all the options and results of CoolSculpting. Thanks to this cryolipolysis technology, you can look forward to summer with a confident smile and a body shape that makes you proud.
