Cast Out the Old with Cool Sculpting

With New Year’s come and gone, bikini season is imminent. Cue the fad diets, workout regimes and ... CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting was first approved by the FDA in 2010, but gained popularity when it was rebranded as a noninvasive alternative to liposuction. The procedure uses rounded paddles in one of four sizes to suction your skin and fat, similar to how a vacuum works on carpet. While you sit in a reclined chair for up to two hours, cooling panels set to work crystallizing your fat cells.
Doctors recommend CoolSculpting as a treatment for someone looking for mild improvements, not drastic changes. Those still come from good, old-fashioned diet and exercise.
