Pasadena Plastic Surgeon Offers CoolSculpting® for Nonsurgical Fat Reduction
Dr. Max Lehfeldt says this non-invasive body contouring technique can work as an alternative to surgical liposuction for patients with small areas of fat on their bodies.
Pasadena, CA — Max Lehfeldt, MD, FACS, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Pasadena says CoolSculpting® is an innovative body contouring technique that can reduce small pockets of fat around the body while also minimizing risks, downtime, and costs often associated with surgical fat reduction. At his medical spa, Dr. Lehfeldt and his experienced team use CoolSculpting® to target fat in the following areas:
- Abdomen
- Inner Thighs
- Outer Thighs
- Love Handles
- Upper Arms
- Bra Roll
- Back
Dr. Lehfeldt says while liposuction can be effective for dramatic fat removal, CoolSculpting® can be an alternative for patients who want to reduce a small amount of excess, stubborn fat without undergoing surgery. The FDA-cleared CoolSculpting® device works to target fat cells directly without damaging surrounding healthy tissue. In a process called cryolipolysis, the fat cells are cooled to the point that they crack and die. The destroyed fat cells are ultimately excreted from the body through natural processes. The Pasadena plastic surgeon says results from this procedure can generally be expected after eight weeks following treatment, adding that some patients may benefit from multiple treatments of the same area spaced about eight to ten weeks apart to achieve optimal aesthetic results.
Radiance Spa Medical Group also offers the unique DualSculpting™ option, which allows for the use of two machines to simultaneously treat two different areas of the body, helping to cut overall treatment time in half. Dr. Lehfeldt says multiple treatments are typically necessary to address concerns in different areas or repeat areas of the body, adding that DualSculpting™ is ideal for many of his patients who maintain busy schedules. Treatment time is about an hour per area.
Ultimately, Dr. Lehfeldt says CoolSculpting® has years of clinical follow-up with hundreds of thousands of satisfied patients treated throughout the world. Additionally, he notes that research suggests the treatment may also provide some skin tightening along with fat reduction. “The bottom line,” he says, “is CoolSculpting® really works.”
