CoolTone

Westlake Dermatology is proud to be among the first in the nation to offer CoolTone, a revolutionary non-surgical body contouring procedure that tightens, strengthens and tones the muscles of the stomach, butt, and thighs for a firmer, more defined look.

CoolTone treatments require no needles, no surgical incisions, no anesthesia, no pain medications, and no recovery time.

What Is CoolTone?

The CoolTone delivers bursts of electromagnetic energy into the muscle fibers, bypassing both skin and fat layers, causing a series of involuntary contractions. Up to 25,000 supramaximal muscle contractions can occur in a single CoolTone session. The frequency and intensity of these contractions is far greater than what can be achieved through even the most intensive exercises. The body’s response to the involuntary contractions is to strengthen its muscle fibers, resulting in improved muscle conditioning.

CoolTone is indicated by the FDA for improvement of tone, strengthening of the muscles, and development for firmer abdomen, buttocks and thighs.

What Happens During the Procedure?

The CoolTone device is positioned on the selected treatment area of the body to most optimally deliver the electromagnetic stimulus to the targeted underlying muscles. The patient remains comfortably seated or lying during the session.

While treatment session duration can vary based on patient need and treatment area, the typical CoolTone session lasts about 20 to 30 minutes.

What Kind of Results Will CoolTone Provide?

CoolTone can improve the appearance of the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks by improving the tone and strength of underlying muscles in the area. With the help of an experienced medical provider, CoolTone can help patients realize enhanced body contours without the need for surgery.

Some patients cite some strengthening of the muscles and an improvement in appearance after a single treatment. However, most patients will require a series of four CoolTone treatment sessions over a month to achieve their final desired result.  The exact number of sessions needed can vary and depend on the patient’s muscle characteristics and the area being treated.

Am I a Good Candidate?

CoolTone is ideal for anyone looking to improve muscle definition in either their abdomen, buttocks, or tops of thighs. The ideal patient for maximum efficacy would have a healthy BMI (body mass index), a degree of subcutaneous adipose tissue, and evidence of some existing muscle definition or tone.

CoolTone vs. CoolScupting

While both treatments are from the same manufacturer, CoolSculpting and CoolTone are two very different non-surgical body contouring treatments. CoolSculpting technology works by safely freezing and killing fat cells, while CoolTone technology works to increase muscle tone and definition.

CoolTone and CoolSculpting can be used simultaneously to maximize both fat reduction and muscle toning. Through the combination of both treatments, skilled providers can transform the silhouette by enhancing the contours of the body.
