Have You Heard About The New Weight Loss Trend called "Cool Sculpting"?

                Freezing off festive flab: CoolSculpting promises to remove 20 to 25per cent of fat in targeted areas such as the stomach or thighs
While surfing the net this morning, I came across an article that enlightened me on a new weight loss trend called "CoolSculpting," and thought to share with you my esteemed readers.
Simply put, Cool Sculpting is a non-surgical treatment that painlessly freezes off fat from the body.
CoolSculpting device was designed by Harvard scientists at Zeltiq in California, and has been around since 2010.
The device features a gel patch that clamps on to the targeted area and freezes fat cells beneath the skin.

Please continue...


The sub-zero temperatures cause the fat cells to die. They are then flushed away by the body over the next few months.
The treatment, which takes anything from one to several hours, is relatively painless.
The skin and muscle tissue is unaffected by the procedure because fat freezes at a higher temperature than other cells.
Thousands are turning to CoolSculpting, otherwise known as cryolipolysis, which costs upwards of $750 per session and promises to remove 20 to 25per cent of fat in targeted areas such as the stomach or thighs.
Mitchell Levinson, Zeltiq’s founder, said trial patients had been monitored for three years without the fat returning.
A single treatment is usually enough for each love handle. A larger beer belly or a set of flaps of fat under the arms may need two treatments.
Zeltiq says it is for those in need of a little fat removal and is not suitable for the obese.
