According to Mayo Clinic, healthy adults should aim for 150 minutes of exercise per week. That’s about five 30-minute sessions. Even with a solid diet and regular exercise, it’s not uncommon to struggle to work off those last few inches. Muffin tops, belly bulge, love handles, bat wings — there are many nicknames for these less-than-pleasant problem areas. But you’re not stuck with this unwanted fat. Non-invasive CoolSculpting® treatments can help you freeze away fat cells and enhance your silhouette.

Not only does CoolSculpting eliminate body fat, it can also boost your confidence levels. That’s why Dr. Robert Marshall and our team at Tru-Male Medical recommend that you visit us at our Oak Brook, Illinois, clinic if you’d like to get a head start on your summer body.

What is CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is a non-invasive technique that uses cold energy to destroy unwanted fat cells. The cold temperatures damage the fat cells (but not your healthy skin), and your body’s lymphatic system flushes the fat cells out of your body.

CoolSculpting has been shown to eliminate up to 25% of fat in targeted areas including:

• Under the chin
• Flanks
• Abdomen
• Thighs
• Upper arm
• Under the buttocks

The procedure is nonsurgical, and it’s common to experience coldness or mild pulling sensations during a session. Once your session is over, you can get back to your daily routine.

Benefits of CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting pairs well with a healthy lifestyle, well-balanced diet, and regular exercise. CoolSculpting takes your results from your healthy lifestyle and elevates them to the next level.

Other reasons to consider CoolSculpting:

• CoolSculpting is non-invasive, which means no needles and no incisions
• You can return to your daily activities — no downtime needed!
• The fat loss is permanent

CoolSculpting may offer permanent results, but they won’t occur overnight.

It’s not too early to think about your summer body

Because the damaged fat cells must be flushed out of your body via your body’s lymphatic system, it will take a few weeks for results to appear. However, most patients notice peak results within one to three months after their session.

This means that it’s not too early to start thinking about your summer body. If you’re close to your ideal body weight, CoolSculpting can give you the boost you’ve been looking for just in time to hit the pool in the summer.
