Everyone’s body accumulates and stores fat in different places. That’s one of the key differences between weight loss and fat reduction. When you lose weight, you can’t really choose what area of fat your body burns. CoolSculpting Baltimore, on the other hand, is built to target the specific areas you choose. A provider places the applicator on the desired area giving you targeted fat reduction. During the procedure, the applicator sends precise cooling into your skin from the surface. It’s not cold enough to damage your skin and other tissue, but it’s cold enough to kill fat cells. In the weeks after the treatment, your body clears away these dead fat cells little by little, producing a slimming physique.
For most people, the risks of surgery are the largest deterrent. While they’re small when your procedure is performed by an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon, every surgery still has serious risks. CoolSculpting, on the other hand, has far fewer risks. It does have some side effects like temporary numbness, swelling and redness in the area, but they tend to be minor and fade in a hurry. There’s no anesthesia and no incisions made.
