CoolLipo®
 New Technology for an Age Old Problem
Why Choose CoolLipo?
As we grow older our skin begins to show the signs of sun, lifestyle, and aging. The face and neck are exposed to the sun more than any other part of the body; therefore, they both tend to age more quickly. As these aging effects begin to appear we look for topical formulas and non-invasive treatments to help reduce future aging, plus improve current appearance. Many prefer not to undergo extensive surgical face and neck lifts due to the expense and risk. Additionally, these procedures require significant time for the face and neck to heal, not always an option for people with limited recovery time.
CoolLipo (laser-assisted lipolysis) is a new, minimally invasive technology that liquefies fat for easy removal. It is a laser-based procedure that breaks up and removes fat cells in areas such as under the chin, neck, and jowls or areas with loose skin such as the arms. In addition, the unique wavelength of the CoolLipo laser system directly contracts collagen and tightens the skin, an effect not seen with standard liposuction.
Benefits
- Gentle fat disruption and removal technique for small areas
- Treats areas that are difficult for conventional liposuction
- Less invasive than a neck or face lift
- May be performed under local anesthesia only
- Short procedure in your physician's office
- Safe with minimal bruising and side effects
- Minimal downtime post-procedure
What is CoolLipo?
CoolLipo is a laser based, minimally invasive procedure that aids your physician in the remove of unwanted fat during a standard liposuction procedure. In addition and most importantly, it provides skin tightening. It can used to treat areas of lax skin that until this time were difficult to do or provided poor results post treatment with conventional liposuction.
How long does the CoolLipo procedure take?
Procedure
times vary in length depending on the size of the area being treated
and the volume of fat that is removed. Typically, treatment times last
from one to three hours.
How long will it take to recover from the CoolLipo procedure?
Procedure
times vary in length depending on the size of the area being treated
and the volume of fat that is removed. Typically, treatment times last
from one to three hours.
How soon will I see results from my CoolLipo procedure?
Some patients will see an immediate improvement after their procedure. Improvement in skin tightening can continue for up to 6 months. Again, please discuss with your physician what his or her prior patients have experienced.
Can the CoolLipo treatment be performed on my stomach, hips or other large body areas?
Currently the CoolLipo treatment is ideal for small, fatty problem areas such as the neck & chin area and arms. It improves the outcome of conventional liposuction in larger areas such as abdomen and thighs.
Why should I choose CoolLipo over other similar laser-assisted lipolysis procedures?
CoolLipo unique 1320 nm wavelength provides proven skin tightening and lifting benefits in addition to fat lipolysis. There is minimal risk of pigmentary changes using the 1320 wavelength.
