Do I Need Liposuction or CoolSculpting?

Do I need liposuction or CoolSculpting to get the best results?

Check out the article below to get all of your questions answered on these two incredible treatment options to sculpt and contour your body. 

What Is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a surgical procedure where your surgeon will remove excess body fat from your body to create a smoother figure. 

This procedure can be performed under local or general anesthesia as well as under sedation. 

Liposuction Treatment Areas

Popular treatment areas for liposuction patients include the waist, hips, buttocks knees, neck, upper arms and more. 

What Is CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is a surgery-free body contouring option where a temperature technology is used to dissolve fat cells. 

During this treatment, your fat cells are targeted and cooled to a temperature until they are destroyed. 

These fat cells are then depleted from your body through your natural metabolic process. 

CoolSculpting Treatment Areas

CoolSculpting is currently indicated for use on the double chin area as well as on the flanks, thighs and stomach. 

Do I Need Liposuction or CoolSculpting?

In order to determine which procedure is best for you it is first important to consider your induvial case. 

If you are looking for a surgery free approach to body contouring with zero downtime, then CoolSculpting may be best for you.

However, for patients with substantial fatty areas looking for a procedure that is deemed to be the most effective way to eliminate body fat then surgical liposuction may be your best bet. 

Your doctor will be your best resource to help determine which procedure is best based on your body goals.
