Body contouring (Coolsculpting) for men

What is the principle of body contouring ?

The essential goal is to lose weight by eliminating unsightly fatty bulges and excess fat. Depending on the extent of the weight gain, the tissues located on either side of the fat may or may not be affected:

• when skin sagging is low, the skin ends up tightening naturally during remodeling.
• in other cases, I offer a complementary treatment for the muscle and skin, without surgery: monopolar radiofrequency.

What are the techniques of body contouring ?

The main technique is the destruction of fatty tissues by intense cold (between -5 and -10°C) and prolonged (session of approximately 20/30 min): this is CoolSculpting® cryolipolysis. The destruction of adipocytes (lipolysis) by cold (cryo) results in their permanent death, because these cells cannot multiply. If the “death” is immediate, the released fatty acids and cellular debris will be “cleaned” by the macrophages over a longer period of time, which explains why the final result requires 1 to 3 months.

If the skin sagging is marked, it will also be necessary to help the dermis to retract. For this I have a monopolar radio frequency device.

The specificities of body contouring for men

These specificities mainly relate to the areas to be treated and the objectives sought.

Which areas should CoolSculpting® treat in men?

For hormonal and metabolic reasons, the distribution of fats in men and women differs. In men, 3 areas are more frequently affected.

The belly

This is the main request: to tackle the traditional belly from the age of 40. Cryolipolysis allows you to reduce fat mass from approximately 25 % to 30 % in a single session, resulting in a rapidly slimmer and more dynamic silhouette.

Adipomastia

Fatty rolls on the upper thorax, at chest level, are common. My medical diagnosis is then essential, so as not to confuse adipomastia (fat deposit) with gynecomastia (hyperplasia of residual breast tissue).

The face

Here, the most frequent request concerns a double chin, with or without sagging skin. Cryolipolysis allows it to be treated specifically, to find a slimmer and more toned profile.

What are the demands on humans?

Very often, weight gain in the stomach or face causes some people to associate fatty rolls with a lack of dynamism and a form of sluggishness. This is particularly unfair in a professional environment, because these two things are obviously not linked. It is therefore normal to want to remedy this.

40 or 50 are also ages when we decide to take control of ourselves, to seduce, please and please ourselves. The disappearance of fatty deposits in the belly can be a great incentive to motivate you to return to physical activity. Cryolipolysis makes it possible to restore a flat stomach, or to remove bulges from the chest – sport can then take over!

Whether you want to seduce in your personal life or convince in your professional life, I offer CoolSculpting® to find a beautiful, slimmed-down silhouette, conveying a dynamic and toned image.

Progress of the coolsculpting® session for men

One session generally allows two areas to be treated, without being fasted or anesthetized.

I seat the patient comfortably in an armchair for the duration of the Coolsculpting session (around 30 minutes depending on the area to be treated).

I apply a gel to protect the skin, then the handpiece: the latter creates a depression to suck up the tissues and bring up the fat, while delivering intense cold. All you have to do is wait!

The patient can go home immediately afterwards, without pain.

Results of body contouring male

Some redness or bruising may occur following tissue aspiration. A slight induration or insensitivity may also appear for a few weeks, transiently.

The final results are visible after approximately 2 months, with a reduction in fatty tissue of approximately 25 %. If necessary, I can do a second Coolsculpting session after 2/3 months, to find a slimmer silhouette reminiscent of a sporty and dynamic young man's body!
