Interested in freezing fat away with the help of the revolutionary process known as CoolSculpting? This fat-reduction treatment is spreading like wildfire, and it might just be able to help you achieve your beauty goals.
The biological process behind CoolSculpting involves the destruction of fat cells. By freezing fat, you are crystallizing the lipids inside the cells. The fat cells cannot survive this temperature drop, and apoptosis occurs (cell death). The body flushes out these cells naturally.
When you use cold temperatures to reduce fat in this way, it’s called cryolipolysis. To find out more about freezing fat, contact our office and arrange a consultation. Dr. Thomas Kaniff is a plastic surgeon board-certified in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. Set up an appointment with Dr. Kaniff, who will make sure your questions are answered.
