Coolsculpting® Now Available At Plastic Surgery Of Southern Connecticut

Plastic Surgery of Southern Connecticut is pleased to offer CoolSculpting®, a safe, non-invasive treatment for eliminating those stubborn layers of fat without needles, special diets, supplements, or surgery.

Dr. O’Connell finds CoolSculpting® to be very effective in refining beautiful, natural contours for both men and women with no anesthesia and virtually no downtime. In the hands of Dr. Joseph O’Connell, this innovative technology allows you to say goodbye to unsightly belly fat, back fat, and love handles.

Unlike most other methods of fat reduction, CoolSculpting® involves no downtime. During treatment, patients often spend their time reading, working on their laptops, or simply relaxing. Cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and studied in clinical trials, CoolSculpting® uses non-invasive technology to gently cool fat cells and induce a natural, controlled elimination of body fat. This breakthrough science was developed at the Wellman Center for Photomedicine at Massachusetts General Hospital. A vast body of research demonstrated that fat cells are selectively, permanently, and painlessly destroyed when subjected to cold temperatures; the scientific term for this technology is apoptosis.
