Why Do You Lose Facial Volume As You Age?
It’s common knowledge that facial skin begins to wrinkle and sag as we age, but what causes this, and how can one avoid it?
Am I a Candidate for Body Contouring?
You’ve been working hard on your body, dropping pounds and waist sizes while working to tone your muscles and slim your profile. What do you do when all of that isn't quite enough? Body contouring can tackle those last few stubborn fat deposits and deliver the results you seek.
At Laughlin Plastic Surgery, with locations in Annapolis, and Easton, Maryland, Dr. Daniel Laughlin uses the CoolSculptingⓇ system to deliver body contouring results that will delight you, from your chin to your thighs.
The body contouring process
Body contouring with CoolSculpting is designed to disrupt fat cells with waves of cold energy, and allow them to be safely and naturally flushed away by your body’s own lymphatic system. Using cold to target fat cells (known as cryolipolysis) is safe and effective.
This process is safe and your appointments will typically take less than an hour for each area being treated. You can see results as soon as 1-3 months after treatment, and one session can result in a reduction in fat layer thickness of up to 20-25%.
Good candidates for CoolSculpting
Dr. Laughlin will sit down and discuss your treatment with you to make sure body contouring is the correct approach. Good candidates for this procedure will:
- Be men or women in good health
- Already have achieved their goal weight or close to it
- Understand that results can take several months to become visible
- Want a non-invasive way to deal with fat bulges
Body contouring can be used on any or all of the following body areas:
Under the chin
Coolsculpting can reduce fat in the chin area, or help minimize the appearance of a double chin.
Upper arms
Your upper arms can be treated to help remove stubborn fat pockets that cause sagging or pouchiness when you raise your arms.
Upper torso
Back fat and bra fat (the rolls of fat that bunch up on your upper sides) can both be addressed with this procedure.
Lower torso
Your abdomen, muffin top, love handles, flanks, and under your buttocks are some of your body’s favorite places to store fat.
Thighs
CoolSculpting can be used on both the inner and outer thighs to slim and tone your legs.
Are you ready to get the body you’ve worked hard for and deserve? Body contouring could be the final piece of the puzzle. To schedule an appointment with Dr. Laughlin, call either of our offices or use our web form to send a private message to either location today.
