Perspective is important. The team at Element Body Lab wanted to give perspective to people looking for a CoolSculpting clinic on the real stories about why to get CoolSculpting. We ask a lot of questions during your free consultation to put together a more customized and personal approach to the CoolSculpting transformation. We aim to meet your expectations, so understanding your body frustrations and your goals for the CoolSculpting procedure are necessary.
The most important thing we hope to impress upon you is that you’re not alone if you’re struggling with unwanted fat. There are lots of others right by you, and at Element Body Lab, we hope to share some of the stories behind the before and after photos. We hope you identify and that you feel hope by the transformations here.
The following are real patient stories about CoolSculpting , shared with our client’s permission.
GENDER: Female
AGE: 36
BODY PART: Upper Arms, Bra Fat, Inner Thighs, Knees (Distal Thigh)
ELEMENT BODY LAB SAYS:
We’re excited that you’ve been referred over from Lemmon Avenue Plastic Surgery and Laser Center. What questions can we answer about CoolSculpting?
SHE SAYS:
I had a full mommy makeover surgery and an arm lift. I recently started doing heavy weight training again 4 times per week and I love the improvements I’ve seen since my surgery and with more regular exercise. I’m wondering if CoolSculpting is a good option to help see a little bit of improvement in the small spots I still have trouble with sculpting in the gym. I know it doesn’t help with skin, but can we do a little bit more refinement from my surgery to enhance my results?
ELEMENT BODY LAB SAYS:
CoolSculpting may be just what you’re looking for, and you’re on the right train of thought. CoolSculpting is not a weight loss procedure but is ideal for helping sculpt away small pockets of fat, regardless of surgery. We’re thrilled you’re loving your surgical results and we want to make sure your plastic surgeon is on board and aware of you doing anything additional for body contouring. We always recommend making sure scars are well healed and that you have medical clearance prior to diving into a full body assessment.
We don’t think it’s a good idea to be in too big of a hurry to make these changes in your body. Often, by the time people talk to professionals about body sculpting, they’re beyond ready for a change. It’s important to remember that this is a journey and you won’t see your results overnight. We’ll have our medical director discuss your surgery, previous medical history, and take a look at your scars to ensure you’re a good candidate (and that you’re cleared for treatment). Results from CoolSculpting take anywhere from 3 weeks to 3 months to actualize, which brings me to my next question. Do you have any trips coming up this summer that have you looking to see changes immediately?
SHE SAYS:
No trips besides visiting my lake house this summer for fishing, and it’s only in East Texas. I want to make sure I’m well healed, and it’s a good reminder to know that this will take time to see results.
ELEMENT BODY LAB:
Yep – and it can feel like an eternity, but most things that work fast don’t last long. We really believe in the CoolSculpting technology and embrace the artistry to customize the treatment plan for your body. CoolSculpting isn’t for everyone, but it sounds like you’re on the right track. Let’s have our medical director take a look at the areas you’ve mentioned to get his approval and recommendations. You mentioned legs, arms, and the bra line. Is there anywhere else you want us to look today?
SHE SAYS:
Not today! I’m sure once I’m treated, I’ll find some other areas for you to freeze. I hope I’m a candidate!
GENDER: Female
AGE: 55
BODY PART: Love Handles
ELEMENT BODY LAB SAYS:
Welcome back! Having happy clients return for additional body areas always brings us joy. Thanks for coming in – I hear you’re coming back for love handle treatment!
SHE SAYS:
Yep! I loved my abdomen treatment and posted my transformation photo on Facebook and had a few friends want your info after sharing. As you know, I’ve got two grown men as children and am recently remarried. After menopause, I carry so much more fat in my abdomen and love handles. I was treated in January on my abdomen and loved it, but you were right. Now I can totally see why I’d want my love handles treated too.
ELEMENT BODY LAB SAYS:
Congrats on the marriage! As hopeless romantics, we know how much CoolSculpting can impact how you feel in front of your partner. It’s awesome that you’re staying so active and making healthy choices. Are you still doing yoga or have our workouts changed?
SHE SAYS:
I’m doing intermittent fasting now, but that’s new. I’m doing more weight activity and harder workouts. I should probably get back to yoga, but I am exercising regularly and eating well. I’m actually stronger and fitter than I’ve ever been.
ELEMENT BODY LAB:
That’s great! We love how CoolSculpting can help take you further with your exercise and fitness routine. And we get it, sometimes a change of pace with workouts is necessary. As long as you’re staying active and feel strong, that’s what’s most important. So, let’s hear it. What would a knockout result on your love handle treatment look like? Do you want more of that pin-up look or slimmer hips?
SHE SAYS:
Oh, great question. It’s the “spill over” I see when I’m in pants that I’m bothered by. It’s just top-heavy if you know what I mean. My husband said do anything I want, but please don’t take away the curves or hips. Ha!
ELEMENT BODY LAB:
It’s awesome that he’s onboard for treatment! We can make sure to accommodate for that by sticking high on the waistline and just softening the lower love handles. We won’t want to go too low on the hips as to keep the nice curves you have. Do you have time to knock this out today? If so, let’s get to freezing.
SHE SAYS:
I’ve got an hour! Could we get it done by then?
ELEMENT BODY LAB:
Absolutely! Since we have 2 CoolSculpting machines we can treat both sides at once. Let’s get started!
