When it comes to CoolSculpting®, our New Mexico-based team regularly hears from patients who want to choose the treatment to target a bulging belly.
Abdominal fat can be especially stubborn and difficult to lose. Even people who faithfully diet and consistently exercise can find that their gut doesn’t ever completely go away. This is because—as much as we may wish otherwise—we can’t focus our lifestyle-based fat-reduction efforts on a specific area.
Happily, nonsurgical treatments like CoolSculpting® provide a convenient solution to that problem. With CoolSculpting®, our experienced team at Western Dermatology Consultants can target particular pockets of fat cells. The belly remains a popular treatment area, but there are also many other places where a fat- freezing session can provide a noticeable slimming effect.
Read on to learn about eight areas of the body CoolSculpting® can address:
The Abdomen
As noted above, the belly is a popular target for nonsurgical fat reduction. Whether some stubborn “baby weight” is still clinging on or a pesky pocket of fat is hiding the firmer abs beneath, CoolSculpting® can help to create a leaner silhouette.
Submental Fullness
Fat that collects in the submental area is commonly referred to as a double chin. Even otherwise slim people can have a problem with this bulk that makes finding the best angle for a photo a challenging endeavor. An especially small applicator is ideal for reducing this isolated pocket.
The Jawline
A sharp-looking jawline is definitely the style these days, thanks in part to celebrities who show off their own chiseled profiles on magazine covers and during interviews. Removing fat that causes the jawline to appear soft or poorly defined can help patients achieve this desirable look.
Upper Arms
Fat can collect on the upper arms and give them a bulky or wobbly appearance. Patients who want to lose their “bat wings” can work with our results-focused team to enjoy the effects of CoolSculpting® in this area.
The Back
Back fat may be hard to see in the mirror, but it can cause a range of cosmetic issues—including undesirable bra rolls. Reducing fat can give the back a leaner look while maintaining natural proportions.
The Flanks
Many people call the fat that collects on the flanks “love handles.” While that nickname is cute, patients who want to lose the bulk can choose CoolSculpting® to target both sides for a symmetrical reduction.
Beneath the Buttocks
Fat beneath the buttocks is sometimes referred to as “banana rolls.” These bulges tend to have a crescent-like shape, and they can make the buttocks appear less defined. Freezing the fat can improve definition, creating the look of shapelier buttocks.
The Thighs
The inner and outer thighs alike are known for holding onto fat. Specialized applicators can target both sides of the leg, leading to circumferential reduction.
