"Characterized by the formation of a fatty mass on the upper outer thigh, the saddlebags is one of the physical disgrace that women complain the most," says Dr. Julien Carré, aesthetic doctor. Good news: The company Zeltiq® Aesthetics, which has developed the CoolSculpting® procedure, a cooling technology to control localized fat deposits, is proposing a new handpiece called CoolSmooth TM . Without invasive gesture and without social foreclosure.
The session
It is painless and has no direct application of cold. A handpiece, consisting of three facets to treat a total surface of about seventeen centimeters in width and fourteen centimeters in length, extracts the natural heat from the affected area, causing a deep tissue cooling that is between - 15 ° C and - 20 ° C.
The adipocytes (only cells sensitive to this exposure to cold) react by entering "apoptosis", that is to say by "suicidating" naturally and gradually. They will then be eliminated by the lymphatic system. And no risk of damage to the skin because its temperature, strictly controlled, always remains higher than 0 ° C.
The results
A single session is sufficient to see, as of the third week, a decrease in the thickness of the adipose tissue. Then the benefits increase for four months to result in a decrease of two to three centimeters of the thigh. They are definitive, provided they maintain a stable weight.
The side effects
At the end of the treatment, one can feel a slight sensation of numbness and tightness that disappears quickly.
The price
About 1800 € the session for both thighs.
The opinion of Your Beauty
With remarkable results on fat deposits localized resistant to all diets, this technique sculpts the thighs but does not lose pounds . A disadvantage: the very long duration of the session (four hours), each leg being treated separately for two hours.
