CoolSculpting Santa Rosa

Sometimes diet and exercise aren’t enough to achieve the body you desire, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you need surgery to achieve your cosmetic goals. CoolSculpting® is a revolutionary new option for body contouring at the Santa Rosa practice of Dr. Victor Lacombe that helps women and men treat pockets of excess fat that are resistant to diet and exercise.

Dr. Victor Lacombe’s Artemedica practice is CoolSculpting® Certified. We were the first to offer CoolSculpting in Napa, Marin and Sonoma County and we are currently the only Premier Crystal practice in the Northern Bay Area.

Candidates for CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting is an exciting, scientifically proven, new innovation in body contouring that may offer benefits to a wide range of individuals. You may be a candidate for CoolSculpting if you:

• Have pockets or bulges of unwanted fat and desire a slim and healthy looking appearance
• Are reluctant to undergo cosmetic surgery for body contouring
• Are a healthy size and weight but have stubborn pockets of fat that don’t go away with diet and exercise

Areas that can be treated with CoolSculpting:

• Submental Fat (double-chins)
• Flanks (love-handles)
• Upper and Lower Abdomen
• Arms
• Back/Back Bra Line
• Inner Thighs
• Outer Thighs
• Arms
• Knees
• Underarm/Front Bra Line
• Under Buttocks

The Procedure

As with any cosmetic procedure, Dr. Lacombe will personalize your body contouring treatment to match your specific needs, desires and body type. Here is a general outline of the procedure:

• No preparation or anesthetic is required for this FDA-cleared procedure.
• A process known as Cryolipolysis™ cools and destroys targeted fat cells without causing damage to surrounding skin and tissue.
• Approximately 20% of the affected fat cells are naturally eliminated by the body during the months that follow the procedure, and they do not return.
• Although most patients see results with just one treatment, many return to our office to enhance their results or sculpt other areas of their bodies.

The Recovery & Results

One of the many benefits of nonsurgical alternatives to liposuction in Santa Rosa is the minimal recovery period. See why women and men are choosing Coolsculpting as a non-invasive answer to excess fat:

• Most patients return immediately to work following treatment.
• Sometimes slight redness and numbness is experienced in the treatment area, but this should dissipate in 2 to 3 hours.
• Visible improvement is gradual, with final results expected after 2 to 4 months. Many patients begin to see their reductions in 3 to 4 weeks following their CoolSculpting procedure.
• Treatment areas typically show approximately a 20% reduction in fat, which creates a smoother and firmer body contour.
• Patients who maintain a healthy lifestyle and weight can expect to maintain their results indefinitely.
