The patient’s new physique will be more or less permanent after CoolSculpting body contouring med spa treatment. In fact, the patient’s body shape will simply become a slightly larger version of their pre-treatment figure, even if they put on a moderate amount of weight following the procedure. Rejuvenate Medical Spa, led by Dr. Bijan Farah, provides body contouring procedures to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding locations.  

Permanent Fat Cell Reduction

The fat cells in the area treated with CoolSculpting are eliminated permanently, and these dead fat cells will not return. The adult body cannot generate new fat cells, even if the individual gains a moderate amount of weight. Therefore, the fat cells eliminated by liposuction are gone for good. The body contouring effects of CoolSculpting will be noticeable until the patient does not gain an excessive amount of weight. But, it is vital for patients to understand that the fat cells that remain in the treated site after CoolSculpting can grow bigger if they put on a large amount of body weight, Over time, the patient will experience changes to their physique due to the natural process of aging. However, they can continue to enjoy the cosmetic benefits of CoolSculpting as long as they follow a balanced diet and regular exercise regimen.  

What Becomes of the Fat Cells and Can They Re-Grow?

Once fat cells are removed from the adult body via CoolSculpting, they cannot re-grow. Patients can be assured that these fat cells cannot return. The body contouring advantages of liposuction are permanent. However, an increase in fat may occur with significant weight gain. CoolSculpting eliminates fat cells from the treated sites and offers the benefits of permanent contours, even with moderate weight gain. However, the fat cells remaining in the treated area can increase in size, which may cause the treated area to appear larger. Patients should follow a balanced diet and exercise plan to make sure that the results of their CoolSculpting med spa treatment sustain.  

Watch What You Eat

Patients can maintain their sleeker post-liposuction body shape in the following ways:

• Limit the consumption of carbohydrates such as rice, pasta, and bread
• Eliminate sugar and unhealthy fats such as vegetable oil
• Include sufficient amounts of healthy vegetables in their diet
• Consume proteins such as pork, beef, and fish
• Drink plenty of water
• Do not skip meals and have a healthy breakfast every day

Restricting carbohydrates in the diet is an effective method for many patients to reduce weight. In addition, cutting down on sugars, such as foods with a high glycemic index, can help reduce and maintain the body weight in the long-run. Avoiding starches and food items such as muffins, bagels, cereal, crackers, and bread also helps CoolSculpting candidates to maintain their weight. It is also a good idea to include large amounts of salad greens in the diet.    

Make sure you get Sufficient Sleep

According to studies, patients with regular sleep habits have a lower percentage of body fat compared to those with erratic sleep cycles. Research indicates that a ninety-minute variation in the sleep duration can have a profound effect on the amount of fat that a body stores. Women who sleep for under 6 ½ hours or more than 8 ½ hours tend to have a higher percentage of body fat, while those who lie between these metrics fare better on fat indexes.
