Fort Myers, FL, July 05, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Leading Treatment for Non-Surgical Fat Reduction Now Cleared for Two Most Common Body Trouble Spots; Offered Locally by Riverchase Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery

Men and women dealing with one of the most exercise and diet-resistant problem areas – “belly fat” – have a viable nonsurgical option to reduce the fat. Approved just over a week ago by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), CoolSculpting® is a non-surgical alternative that uses a freezing technique for the reduction of fat in the abdomen area.

CoolSculpting has been clinically shown to reduce fat in the treated area without surgery or the downtime. In a recent study of CoolSculpting physicians, 95 percent of patients who had just one CoolSculpting treatment were satisfied with the reduction of fat in the treated area, and because it is so effective patients have been returning for additional CoolSculpting treatments in other areas or for a more pronounced reduction in the same area. In a nationwide survey of adults, 59 percent reported the abdomen is the area of the body they are most interested in having treated with CoolSculpting.

Unlike most other methods of fat reduction that use heat, CoolSculpting cools fat cells to temperatures that trigger their natural death, shrinking the cells that are then eliminated naturally by the body over the following weeks and months.

During the procedure, a non-surgical applicator delivers precisely controlled cooling to the treatment area to specifically target underlying fat, without damaging the skin. CoolSculpting does not involve needles, surgery, pain medication or downtime. Patients typically return to normal activities immediately following treatment, which lasts one to two hours.

CoolSculpting consultations are being scheduled at the Riverchase Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery offices in Cape Coral and Fort Myers, with procedures being performed at the Fort Myers office. Drs. Andrew Jaffe and W.G. Eshbaugh perform CoolSculpting® procedures in Lee County.
