Debra Messing Swears By This Treatment to Get Rid of Fat

You might remember Debra Messing from Will and Grace. If not, she’s in the up-and-coming remake of Dirty Dancing. And she’s swearing by a certain treatment in the cosmetic world: CoolSculpting.

If you’ve never heard of CoolSculpting, then you might be surprised by how exactly this fat reduction treatment works.

Freezing off Your Fat… Literally

CoolSculpting works on a basic principle of fatty tissue: fat cells are more sensitive to temperature differences than other types of tissue.

Doctors noticed the phenomenon when dimples would appear on kids who ate popsicles. 

And when a case study appeared from the vaults that a woman who went riding naked through freezing weather (yes, this apparently happened) lost quite a lot of fat on her thighs, scientists put two and two together.

And so the idea of CoolSculpting came to be. But don’t reach for those ice packs and DIY kits just yet, because there’s a bit more tech involved.

At Just the Right Temperature

There’s a perfect balance between the temperature needed to kill fat cells and the temperature that’ll cause frostbite.

Using advanced monitoring technology, CoolSculpting balances that line perfectly – and also manages to make the procedure no worse than slightly uncomfortable.

Some patients who have gone through the procedure before relate how during the hoursomething long procedure, they were able to catch up on work and make calls. So it can’t be THAT uncomfortable, right?

Do note that this procedure works best for those who already take care of their health. Messing herself notes that she has an extremely clean diet–and that CoolSculpting is mainly for those bulges that diet and exercise won’t quite get rid of.

Think you’re a good candidate for CoolSculpting? There’s actually quite a few options when it comes to fat reduction treatment.
