Stubborn fat can hang around for years, refusing to budge despite your best efforts at dieting and exercise. Fortunately, a new technology called CoolSculpting®, a body sculpting and contouring procedure, exists to safely and effectively eliminate unwanted fatty deposits. At Miami Dermatology and Laser Institute, we offer CoolSculpting® on those living in and around Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, and Kendall, FL, as well as surrounding communities, to help reduce fat deposits without the need for surgery, scars, anesthesia or recovery time.
An Official CoolSculpting® Certified Practice
Miami Dermatology and Laser Institute is an official CoolSculpting® certified practice, and our medical team has extensive expertise with the technology to give you the best results possible.
At MDLI, we offer the full range of CoolSculpting® applicators to be able to offer our patients the most advanced technology results. These applicator heads allow us to treat pinchable bulges of fat around the waist and flanks, including the muffin tops and love handles. We are also able to reduce excess fat on non-pinchable areas, including the thighs and buttocks. In general, treatment of one pinchable area takes about one hour, and a non-pinchable area may take two hours. The procedure is very comfortable, and most of our patients relax, read or use their tablets and phones while the treatment is being done. No anesthesia or pain medications are required for CoolSculpting®.
Our medical team will mark the area and position the CoolSculpting® device for your treatment. For example, for the lower abdomen, the system draws the bulge up between two cooling panels to begin the controlled cooling process. As the panels start working, you will feel a sensation of intense cold that dissipates quickly. The area will begin to feel numb. Your fat cells will crystallize without affecting the surface of your skin. Over several months, the crystallized fat cells break down and are naturally eliminated from your body.
You can resume normal activities immediately after treatment. Some patients experience slight redness, bruising, tingling, or numbness, but these effects are mild and only temporary.
To get the most significant fat reduction result from your CoolSculpting® procedure, the expert board-certified dermatologists at Miami Dermatology and Laser Institute may recommend more than one treatment session per area. Typically, you can have an area retreated within 30 days. We will design a customized program for you to achieve your goals.
