Patients who want to get the most success from their body contouring efforts need to focus on three separate areas: not just fat and skin, but muscles too! Reducing volume in a targeted area is important, and so is tightening loose skin. Muscle tone, however, is often overlooked - probably because there have been procedures and treatments that can tackle unwanted fat cells and skin laxity, but not build muscles. Until now!
In the summer of 2019, the FDA officially cleared Allergan's breakthrough CoolTone™ technology for toning muscles in the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks. Grand Rapids plastic surgeons, Dr. Brad Bengtson, Dr. David Alfonso, and the Bengtson Center team are excited to announce to men and women in Michigan that CoolTone™ is available at the practice as of this fall! We are one of the 20 first practices in the country to launch CoolTone™, and the second in Michigan! We're so excited about this advanced and effective treatment, we're offering special launch pricing for anyone who wants to use it for a slimmer, sleeker, more toned look.
It may seem too good to be true, but technological innovations have made it possible to tone muscles without setting foot in the gym. Unlike the popular and related CoolSculpting treatment, which freezes fat cells in specific areas, CoolTone™ is designed to use magnetic muscle stimulation (MMS) as non-invasive a way of firming, building, and strengthening muscle fibers. This revolutionary technology, more powerful than the similar Emsculpt™, is a quick and convenient way to make those stubborn areas around the belly, thighs, and butt look better.
CoolTone™ is ideal for helping you add extra definition to take your physique to the next level. Traditionally used for athletes and physical therapy, this form of technology tones muscles to a degree that would be impossible on your own - even with thousands of sit-ups and other exercises! The CoolTone™ machine works on the deep layers of muscle in specific body areas by encouraging involuntary contractions.
Depending on your body type and areas of concern, you may prefer the fat-busting benefits of CoolSculpting, the toning effects of CoolTone™, or both!
