Punxstawney Phil didn’t see his shadow on Groundhog Day, and while the clocks change this Sunday, a sure sign that spring is on the way, snow, cold and more winter weather still dominate the forecast for polar vortex-tired New Yorkers. But don’t fret; frigid temps don’t always have to be a bad thing. Amazing things can happen when cold combines with advanced technology.
You eat healthy, maintain a healthy lifestyle, and are proud to have reached and maintained your ideal weight. So why won’t that little belly hiding your toned abs and hard work go away? Or maybe you need an added push to enhance your new healthy lifestyle as you work hard to reach your target weight.
CoolSculpting is a revolutionary procedure clinically proven to reduce pockets of fat through a patented cooling technology. Based on the science of Cryolipolysis, wherein cold has been proven to affect fat cells, Harvard University scientists developed the non-invasive, non-surgical, no downtime treatment. One CoolSculpting session renders approximately a 25% fat reduction in the treated area.
How It Works
The CoolSculpting device is placed over the area of stubborn fat, where it delivers controlled cooling to the area, not affecting the skin, but crystallizing fat cells and causing cell death. The body then naturally excretes the diminished fat cells and over a period of typically two to four months the remaining cells condense, forming a thinner layer of fat and creating the desired appearance.
The procedure takes only an hour and patients can return to work, exercise, and their normal routines immediately. With FDA approval, years of research, and countless patients delighted with their non-surgically slimmed bodies, CoolSculpting is a treatment that has changed lives and the world of aesthetics.
SkinCeuticals Body Tightening Concentrate
As the years pass, reduced volume and sagging skin are changes in skin’s appearance that do not limit themselves to only above the neck. This aging on the body is precisely why SkinCeuticals developed Body Correct, a line of products developed specifically to treat body damage resulting from aging skin and their Body Tightening Concentrate does just that. A cooling solution specially formulated for the areas of the body that fight gravity the most; the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, knees, and upper arms, this treatment has been proven to work in a controlled clinical study of multiethnic women above the age of 35. Using a combination of Tripeptide, Yeast Extract, Hydrolyzed Rice Protein, and LHA, the concentrate’s ingredients stimulate collagen and hyaluronic acid in the skin to firm, replenish lost volume, lift and tighten, in addition to evening skin tone.
