The pandemic followed by wildfires around the state rendered a number of people in Oregon and northern California unable to keep up with their fitness goals. Now that the holidays are approaching, it might seem impossible to sculpt and contour your body as you had hoped. VIDA Aesthetic Medicine is here to help with the very effective CoolSculpting treatment. This treatment targets small areas of unwanted fat so that you can contour your body as you like, all with a non-invasive procedure that requires no downtime.

The concept for CoolSculpting was discovered in the 1970s when researchers realized that children who ate a lot of Popsicles had less fat in their cheeks than their peers. When fat is exposed to certain low temperatures, it “dies” and is naturally absorbed and expelled by the body. CoolSculpting operates on that fact and can be used to treat virtually every part of the body including the stomach, back, upper arms, thighs, and even below the chin.

Unlike liposuction, a surgery that vacuums fat from the body, CoolSculpting takes a slow and steady approach. Results aren’t immediate since it takes some time for the unwanted fat to be frozen and expelled from the body. Rather, the results are revealed in the weeks following your CoolSculpting treatments. Exactly how many treatments you will need depends on your goals, amount of fat, and number of CoolSculpting sites. Most clients require 3 – 5 sessions per site.

That slow approach is a good thing. It allows the body to get used to a slimmer, more svelte you. This means there is virtually no chance of skin sagging or becoming crepe-like, which can happen with weight loss surgeries or liposuction. CoolSculpting gives your skin time to adjust so you can enjoy not only a contoured body but skin that remains taut.

Right now is the perfect time to start your CoolSculpting journey. You will see results in time to celebrate the holidays and show off your New Year’s style with a more sculpted body. Connect with VIDA by calling (503) 399-0021 and learn more about CoolSculpting.
