CoolScuplting From Dr. Shel Is a Non-Invasive Way to Get the Body You Want Without Any Downtime.
Cellulite is truly the enemy if you’ve tried to lose weight through diet and exercise but still have lumpy dimpling on the outside of your skin. When it comes to being resilient, cellulite holds up through anything you throw at it, dodging even the most rigorous calisthenic routines and strict diet plans.
Traditionally, cellulite’s kryptonite was liposuction – a surgical treatment to remove it. However, science gave us CoolSculpting in Sugar Land, TX – a remarkable, non-surgical way to target cellulite and rid you of it forever.
Target cellulite and stubborn fat with a treatment that may only take 30 minutes and require only one session; it can’t get much simpler.
What’s Cellulite?
Before we get into all the wonders of CoolSculpting, let’s take a sec to explain what exactly cellulite is and who gets it.
By definition, cellulite consists of fat cells that press against the skin’s surface and become trapped within the connective tissue, causing a rippled or lumpy appearance. Many describe it as looking like cottage cheese or an orange peel. Exposure to fluid retention, toxins, and fats can enlarge these cells, making them more noticeable.
So how does it happen?
It’s not as complicated as it seems; fibrous tissue connects the skin to the underlying muscle, and then those fat cells accumulate and push against the skin. The fibrous tissue, on the other hand, pulls downward. When both are occurring, the skin’s surface becomes uneven and rumpled. It most commonly appears on the buttocks, thighs, and hips.
Anyone can develop cellulite no matter how thin or not-so-thin they are. And women are more likely to have it than men since women have thinner, more vertical connective tissue. But with that said, researchers aren’t 100 percent sure what triggers it, though they’re aware that hormones, genetics, pregnancy, and weight gain can all impact it.
Why Lipo Isn’t the Answer to Cellulite and Difficult Fat Pockets
The process of lipo incorporates a vacuum-like device that suctions the fat cells. In the process, though, it damages the connective tissue. Not to mention, lipo can cause more irregularities in the skin’s surface, especially in skin that already has issues. As a general rule, it’s difficult to suction a nearly smooth surface and make it smoother, but it’s easy for a smooth or nearly smooth surface to become lumpier.
We can’t forget to mention that surgery comes with its share of risks, even if it’s not a major procedure like open heart surgery. Even cosmetic surgeries like lipo can lead to infection, nerve or organ damage, hematomas, scarring, or perforations.
Plus, we can’t forget to note that liposuction requires a significant amount of downtime, usually up to six weeks, for strenuous activity. Even after this period, it could still take a month or more to see the full results. Keep in mind that most people need to take at least a few days off work — we usually recommend five to seven, though some may need longer or can return sooner.
Achieve a More Sculpted Figure Without All the Hassle of Lipo
At Dr. Shel Wellness & Aesthetic Center, we offer CoolSculpting, a non-surgical approach to remove cellulite and exercise-and-diet-resistant fat. For CoolSculpting, Dr. Shel will use a specialized applicator on the area that emits cold. It stimulates cryolipolysis – a process that occurs when a device freezes fat cells and causes them to go through cell death. The body’s lymphatic system works to clear the body of these cells.
Without any surgical incisions, you don’t have a risk of infection or scarring. And unlike lipo, CoolScupting won’t worsen the appearance of cellulite.
Moreover, rather than undergoing a lengthy procedure with lipo, CoolSculpting may only require 30 minutes of your time. In some cases, you may need multiple sessions to see full results.
You also won’t need to take weeks out of your life when you can resume your usual activities and even return to work immediately after your procedure.
Another option is Vanquish ME, which reduces waist circumference. Like CoolSculpting, it’s also non-invasive. However, rather than cooling the fat, this treatment does the opposite – heating it. Like with the cold, the temperature change stimulates fat cell death as well. During this procedure, the lymphatic system will also work to remove the cells, like with CoolSculpting.
