Answer Snippet
Could I achieve a lean chiseled face if I got down to 8 percentage body fat?
Lean Chiseled Face
Jan 8, 2017
You would most certainly develop a lean chiseled face if you got down to a low percentage body fat. Do you know what your percentage body fat is in this picture? Your bone structure looks fine underneath. You would probably look chiseled once you lowered your percentage body fat to around 18%. You would not need to go as low as 8%. Any reputable medical weight loss center will have a biometric ultrasonic device to measure your percent body fat at your initial assessment. With…
I have lost 85 pounds and as a result my belly fat hangs down. Would CoolSculping be right for me?
Hanging Belly Fat & CoolSculpting
Jan 8, 2017
You need to have an assessment by a certified CoolSculpting medical office. The key to a good assessment is to see if there is a significant amount of “pinchable” fat. This fat is nicely removed by CoolSculpting. If the sag is caused mostly by fat dependency then it should tighten up gradually after the procedure. If the overhang is more due to stretched out skin you can still remove the fat and then follow with a radio frequency procedure or have both the fat and skin…
Am I overweight? Do I need to lose weight? please help!
Overweight or Not Overweight?
Jan 8, 2017
The best way to assess your health is to know your percentage body fat, not just your weight. Not only will this tell you if you are fit, but how close you are to becoming lean. We use biometric ultrasonic technology to measure this in our medical weight loss centers, not just a scale. We know that muscle weighs much more than fat. You appear very muscular. So, if someone is heavy, but has a body percentage less than 22% as a man, 33% as a woman, depending…
Do you have any payment plans for the CoolSculpting?
Payment plans for CoolSculpting
Jan 8, 2017
Most medical clinics who perform CoolSculpting offer financing. We offer an in-house financing with low interest to help people that are needing to do several areas, but cannot afford to pay all up front. People really appreciate this. We know that they will be satisfied with the results and will refer their friends and family, so we want to make it easy for them to give it a try. Good luck finding a clinic you feel comfortable in.
If I have an innocent heart murmur, can I take a natural diet pill?
Innocent Heart Murmur and Diet Pills
Jan 8, 2017
There are two types of diet pills; metabolic stimulators and appetite suppressants. A metabolic stimulator tries to increase your metabolism by a stimulant like caffeine or ephedra. These are not safe with any heart murmur because these cause the heart to beat harder and faster. They can stress the heart even if natural. An appetite suppressant quiets your desire for food. These are safe with an innocent heart murmur because there is no significant stress on the heart…
Coolsculpting and hernia surgery.
CoolSculpting is Okay With Prior Hernia Surgery
Dec 18, 2016
CoolSculpting is safe and effective in removing fat around an old scar from hernia surgery. With a qualified office that performs CoolSculpting you will have an assessment where it is decided where to place the applicators. There needs to be enough fat surrounding the old hernia repair site. Otherwise the applicator needs to placed not directly over the scar site. There also has to be no intestines bulging through the hernia site to qualify for the CoolSculpting procedure.
Will one coolsculpting section get rid of this little pooch?
Ideal Body for CoolSculpting
Dec 18, 2016
You have an ideal body for CoolSculpting. The way your fat bulge is localized you are the ideal patient for a single treatment of CoolSculpting. Each cycle removes 25% of the amount of fat that gets pulled into the CoolSculpting applicator. That will be enough on your body to give you the flat look your are looking for. The treatment is quick, painless and effective for permanent fat loss. The new Cool Advantage applicators make the process even quicker and easier. You should be pleased….
While coolsculpting aims to reduce fat instead of weight loss, what’s the average range of lbs one can
CoolSculpting and Weight Loss
Dec 18, 2016
CoolSculpting is not for weight loss, but for sculpting bulges from subcutaneous fat. Fat is not nearly as heavy as muscle. When the fat is dissolved by lipolysis from freezing with coolsculpting, or any fat reducing procedure, the amount of weight loss is minimal. If you want to lose weight then you combine the CoolSculpting first with 2-3 months of a medical weight loss program using fat burning injections and an appetite suppressant to help reduce your intake of calories and…
I want to lose 25-30 pounds?
The Secret of Rapid Weight Loss
Dec 17, 2016
25-30 pounds should not be that hard to lose, especially in the time that you have. The standard way to lose weight is by cutting calories and increasing exercise. There is another secret way to lose weight rapidly. We use this method at our medical weight loss clinics. If you keep the blood sugar between 75-85 for most of the hours in the day, you will see fat come off your body more rapidly. You can test your blood sugar twice daily with a glucometer found in most pharmacies. The…
If the cool sculpting applicators were not applied evenly to my inner thighs will I get uneven results?
Uneven Results?
Dec 11, 2016
Your thighs should not turn out uneven with just a one and a half inch variance in placement of the applicator. This is because as the fat cells dissolve the remaining tissue evens out in the area. As long as the applicator was centered over where the fat was bulging the most it will dissolve the same amount of fat as the other leg. The tissue will then distribute over time to become smooth and even. This procedure does not need the same precision as plastic surgery.
I am 28, weight 255lbs, 5’8 and tried diets. Could I be accepted for surgery?
Is Surgery The Proper Choice?
Dec 11, 2016
At your age and size surgery would not be the proper choice for you. You are too young and you are not obese enough to warrant the surgery. Instead you should seek out a reputable medical weight loss clinic in your area to help you achieve success. With proper education about nutrition, a properly prescribed appetite suppressant along with fat burning injections and supplements you should be able to reduce to a normal size. Until you have been under proper medical direction with a…
I have thyroid issues. Can I take the weight loss pill PhenQ?
Thyroid and Weight Loss Supplements.
Dec 11, 2016
As long as your thyroid is properly managed by your doctor you can safely combine a weight loss supplement like PhenQ with thyroid supplementation. This product looks safe, but would be much more effective when combined with a properly prescribed appetite suppressant. In our clinics we use a similar natural product, without the caffeine, but with an FDA approved appetite suppressant for a much greater effect on weight loss. This also avoids…
I had this done yesterday. Am I too fat for CoolSculpture?
How to get the best results with Coolsculpting
Dec 11, 2016
In order to get the best results with the Coolsculpting procedure I would advise loosening the amount of fat underneath the bulging area with 4 weeks of intensive weight loss first utilizing a prescription appetite suppressant. We use coolsculpting in our office and often combine it with a medical weight loss program for an initial period of time to help loosen the subcutaneous fat. A looser bulge will assure the most amount of fat that will be able to be frozen…
Can I get Coolsculpting after a Tummy Tuck?
CoolSculpting after a Tummy Tuck
Nov 26, 2016
CoolSculpting is an excellent non-invasive procedure to add after undergoing an abdominoplasty in the past to add further contouring effect on your body. It safely removes any additional sub-dermal fat left behind by simply freezing up to 25% of the amount of fat that can be pinched in your hand. This will be confirmed by an assessment in a qualified office.
Abdomen pain. I need a medicine!
Alternative analgesic and anti-inflammatory
Nov 26, 2016
There are effective alternatives to traditional analgesics and anti-inflammatories. Arnica montana is a natural anti-inflammatory and Hypericum perforatum is a natural analgesic that can be used after all invasive and non-invasive procedures. They shorten the healing time and reduce discomfort. They can be taken together and combined with Neurontin after CoolSculpting if the pain is more severe.
