The sunny months are finally here! There's no doubt that “getting into shape” is a great way to boost your summer spirit and feel confident about flaunting your looks when swimsuit season arrives - but this means more than just losing weight. Fat is certainly one aspect to consider when honing your ideal physique, but the condition of the overlying skin and underlying muscles should also be taken into account. Here at the Bengtson Center, we offer CoolTone body contouring for women and men interested in the ultimate “tone up.”
Traditional strength training to build muscle mass through regular exercise does more than simply make your body look lean and attractive with a better posture. It also improves your overall health by lowering body fat, strengthening the body, and reducing the risk of serious illnesses.
However, due to genetics and fat distribution, not everyone who routinely lifts weights and works out is able to achieve visibly larger muscles in certain areas. While the health benefits are there, they find it near impossible to craft their desired look due to fat's unpredictability. Some fat cells shrink in response to diet and exercise changes, while others seem to stubbornly remain the same size, no matter the effort put into reducing them.
CoolTone is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment that allows you to move past these obstacles.
This personalized treatment is meant for patients who are already fit and healthy, but who want to overcome a workout plateau to add extra definition to their frame by targeting a few select areas and gaining that “wow!” factor. The wand-like applicator targets underlying muscle fibers directly by causing contractions. This flexing tightens and builds up the muscles through Magnetic Muscle Stimulation (MMS).
The CoolTone device has been cleared by the FDA for enhancing three common problem areas that are often resistant to training: the abdomen, butt, and thighs. CoolTone can create a more proportional body frame by enhancing any of these individual trouble zone or zones. For example, working on your leg muscles can make them look longer and give you more of that that runaway model appearance. Another advantage for CoolTone patients is that they can return to their daily activities right away, as there is no downtime required after the non-invasive procedure.
