CoolSculpting is the world’s #1 non-invasive fat reduction procedure and has just arrived at Canada MedLaser. The revolutionary treatment uses controlled cooling to get rid of unwanted, stubborn fat that can’t seem to go away with regular diet and exercise. The best part? One doesn’t have to go under the knife to receive results similar to that of liposuction; the procedure works by freezing away fat in a minimally invasive way. CoolSculpting was developed by two Harvard doctors who noticed that some children got dimples when eating popsicles, while others did not. They discovered that the same type of effect could also be applied to the rest of the body, and the connection was made between cold and the loss of fat cells. Through their research, they discovered that nerves, skin, muscle and other body tissues were far less sensitive to cold temperatures than body fat. Due to this discovery, they were able to determine the exact ideal temperature to maximize fat reduction without harming other areas of the body.
