The last few years I have struggled with hormone issues, food allergies, and weight gain. I never had an ounce of fat on my stomach, and have gained 10 pounds which has resulted in more fat in my stomach area. I am on camera and want to look my best at all times.
All my life I have been an athlete, from playing field hockey and basketball as a young girl, to teaching pilates and aerobics as an adult. I work out 5-6 days a week with everything from running to boxing and I still had some stubborn fat.
When I heard about cool sculpting and how easy it was I was dying to try it. I decided to head on over to Alvarado Institute of Skincare to try it out. The process is very easy. You simply go in for a free consultation to see if you are a candidate for the procedure. Basically, if they can pinch it, you can treat it. SWEET!
During the consultation you discuss your goals and what look you want to achieve and the RN or registered nurse will go over a customized plan based on your goals and tell you how many treatments you need to achieve the look you want. (They can do many areas of the body from your chin, your stomach, your arms, and the back of your legs to name a few.)
The Procedure itself is quick and painless. I was able to drink tea and work while my fat was frozen. It was about 30 minutes per treatment area and I had 2 areas of my stomach done. We took before pictures and when I go back for my follow up appointment, we will take after photos!
Results are generally seen within 4-6 weeks from the time of your procedure.
What is cool sculpting you ask?
It is an innovative, non-invasive way to contour your body freezing unwanted fat. It delivers controlled cooling to gently and effectively target the fat cells underneath the skin while leaving the skin itself unaffected. Over time your body processes the fat cells and they die, FOR GOOD! NOT COMING BACK! Yep, thats the best part!
I did have some soreness the next 2 days but it did not hinder my activity in any way! Loved it and I am excited for my results! Check them out.
