Now that the New Year is here, you might be ready to say goodbye to those last few inches of stubborn fat on your tummy, your thighs, or your back. Maybe you’re tired of your double chin and are ready to finally do something about it – without resorting to surgery. Luckily, there’s CoolSculpting, a non-invasive procedure that freezes your fat away.
CoolSculpting works on various areas of the body, from the chin to the arms and from the abdomen to the thighs. Although each applicator can only treat a single area at once, if a spa has two devices, you can double your results in the half the time. One of the biggest differences between CoolSculpting and other fat removal procedures is that you are completely awake for the procedure. The process is also relatively comfortable. Depending on how many areas you are having treated, you can expect to be in the treatment room for anywhere from one to five hours. Here’s what you can do to relax and make the most of your treatment.
Dress Comfortably
It’s great to dress to impress, but you don’t have to – and probably don’t want to – when going in for CoolSculpting. Instead of wearing a "wow" outfit, think comfort first. If looking stylish at all times is important to you, you can still look great while dressed for comfort.
Wear a pair of yoga pants or leggings, with a loose fitting top, for example. You’ll be able to comfortably relax in that outfit, and you probably won’t feel self-conscious about anyone seeing you in it. A pair of loose, flowing pants is another comfortable, but still stylish option.
Leave the heels at home, and bring along a pair of ballet flats or sneakers to your treatment. Feel free to kick off your shoes during the procedure to feel more at ease.
Settle In for a Movie
You’re going to want to find something to do to keep yourself occupied during your treatment, since you’ll be awake and confined to one area. You need to stay seated while the CoolSculpting applicators do their thing.
Depending on how long your treatment will take, it can be the ideal time to load up a movie on Netflix or another streaming service. There is Internet in each of the treatment rooms at Houston’s Mirror, Mirror Beauty Boutique, so you can settle in and connect to your Netflix or Hulu account.
Get Some Work Done
Perhaps you need to feel productive while you freeze away your fat. If you’ve got a busy day of work ahead of you, don’t let CoolSculpting stand in your way. You can do some work while the treatment is going on. You might want to wait until the area is fully numb before you start working on a paper, running reports, or launching into a conference call, though. A bit of tingling and pressure at common at the start of the treatment, but these quickly fade away.
Catch Up with Friends
CoolSculpting can give you an excuse to catch up with old friends. While you are able to drive home after the treatment and won’t need someone to stay by your side, it can be nice to have a friend come with you to Mirror Mirror to keep you company during the process.
Of course, you can also call up a long-lost friend, using the hour or so that you’ll be in the treatment room as a chance to catch up. Whether you let your friend know that you’re getting CoolSculpting at the same time as your phone call is entirely up to you.
Plenty of people take advantage of their hour or more in the CoolSculpting treatment room. They look at it as a way to check things off of their to-do list or finally get caught up with friends and with their favorite TV shows. It can also be a scheduled time to get away from it all and just relax. It is not uncommon for people to nap away their CoolSculpting session. The treatment is comfortable enough that some people soon find themselves dozing off.
Mirror Mirror Beauty Boutique is one of the only places in Houston where DualScultping (with two CoolSculpting devices) is offered. If you’re ready to comfortably get rid of that stubborn fat, call (281) 810-9083 to learn more about the treatment, today.
