CoolSculpting is a non-surgical, FDA-approved procedure that has helped millions of men and women address unsightly pockets of fat. Unlike liposuction, CoolSculpting is non-invasive, which means it does not leave any suture scars and there is no risk of a suture-site infection.

Read on to learn how you can improve the results of your CoolSculpting treatment:

Maintain a Healthy Diet

CoolSculpting is not a replacement for a balanced diet and exercise. Rather, it is a tool you can use to enhance your efforts.

People who experience the most dramatic results from CoolSculpting are those who already maintain a healthy lifestyle but have struggled to eliminate stubborn pockets of fat in particular areas on their body. Ultimately, CoolSculpting is a form of body contouring, which means it will leave you shapely and sexy.

After CoolSculpting, your body will naturally expel fat cells over the following weeks and months. Although these cells will not grow back, your existing fat cells can still expand. A single CoolSculpting session can remove 20 percent to 25 percent of fatty tissue in the target area, which means 75 percent will remain. As such, eating a healthy diet is essential for maintaining your results.

After undergoing CoolSculpting, try to avoid consuming excessive amounts of food that contain added sugars. These include soda, energy drinks, candy, desserts, and many processed foods.

You should also avoid eating a diet that is high in transfat. Popular food items that contain transfat include anything battered or fried, as well as most desserts.

Exercise Several Times Each Week

Finding the time to exercise can be challenging, but once you commit to a routine, it will be far easier than you anticipated. Regular exercise will keep your body toned and tight after undergoing CoolSculpting, but that’s not the only reason to get moving.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, regular exercise can reduce the risk of several health conditions including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and certain types of cancer. Despite these amazing health benefits, though, regular exercise is not an effective way to “spot treat” stubborn fat pockets. Luckily, there’s CoolSculpting.

If you’ve been working tirelessly to achieve your ultimate beauty goals and there’s nothing between you and your desired physique but a few pockets of fat, body contouring may be for you.
