NEW YORK, Feb. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- OpposingViews.com recently ran an article highlighting the surge in popularity regarding CoolSculpting, a cosmetic procedure that serves as a nonsurgical alternative to liposuction. Dr. Dave E. David, who offers this treatment to his patients, explains that this popularity is due to the fact that this is a noninvasive technique that requires patients to take no time off for recovery—meaning that it can be fit into even the busiest of schedules without interfering with a patient's work or other obligations.

The article explains that CoolSculpting works by freezing the fat cells in the body using sub-zero temperatures. The area undergoing treatment is put into a clamp, which applies the cold temperature to the skin and, ultimately, freezes the fat cells that lie beneath. Appointments for this type of treatment can last from one hour to several, depending on which areas and how many areas are undergoing the procedure. Patients feel relatively no pain and are awake and alert during the process. 

"We have seen the same enthusiasm and results here in New England pertaining to CoolSculpting as other doctors have seen in New York City and along the West Coast," comments Dr. Dave E. David. "CoolSculpting is certainly all the rage right now, and for good reason. This technique offers a great alternative to surgical liposuction to patients who are extremely busy but still want to see results. As such, this completely noninvasive procedure is easy to fit into a packed schedule, requires no down time, and has quickly become a favorite among patients."

The article cites Dr. Michele Green, who works as a dermatologist in New York City, as also noticing the raise in demand for CoolSculpting: "CoolSculpting is an easy in-office procedure to free away that bulge in their stomach or love handles. It is especially popular after the holidays when we have all eaten too much."

Dr. David warns patients that, like traditional liposuction, CoolSculpting is not a procedure that will result in permanent weight loss. Should patients stray from their diet and exercise routines, they can certainly gain the weight back. As such, Dr. David encourages that patients try to get to their target weight before the procedure and then use the treatment as a tool to remove any unwanted fat that diet and exercise cannot.
