New Cryo-Liposuction System Offers Safer, Non-Invasive Liposuction Technique
Over the years, there have been many variations of liposuction systems looking to remove excess fat without subjecting the patient to invasive surgery. Cryolipolysis™ (Cryolipo),branded as CoolSculpting by its maker ZELTIQ™, is the latest and safest noninvasive liposuction treatment currently on the market.
Most noninvasive liposuction systems use various methods to destroy fat cells that the body then naturally disposes of. There was some question however, about the pace at which the liver had to work with previous system. Unlike previous methods though, Cryolipo gradually causes the body’s lymphatic system to dispose of the cells over a 2 to 4 month period post-procedure, a safer alternative.
The CoolSculpting device works by emitting cool, cryogenic energy, to the targeted area. Naturally, you body invokes its automatic inflammatory response to the rapid temperature change, damaging excess fat cells. These damaged fat cells are then disposed of naturally (as detailed above).
Cryolipolysis™ has become so popular since its launch that it was even featured on Good Morning America. But despite the hype surrounding it, it is important to remember that non-invasive liposuction techniques are only effective in removing very small amounts of fat. More dramatic results can be seen through traditional, surgical liposuction – also available at Dermatology Associates of Atlanta.

Dr. Edmond Griffin Adds Zeltiq Coolsculpting Procedure To Practice
As seen on AtlantaHealthandBeauty.com
Zeltiq Coolsculpting is the newest technology in body sculpting that uses cryolyposis to literally “freeze your fat off.”
Dr. Edmond Griffin, a Zeltiq provider in the Atlanta area, has recently added the body contouring procedure which utilizes cryolipolysis to his list of services. One of the few practices in the U.S. that offers Zeltiq, Dr. Griffin is proud to be one of the first to offer this non-invasive fat reduction option in body contouring.
Zeltiq, while not recommended for those seeking to remove large amounts of fat, is ideal for patients that are in relative good health who want to remove stubborn spots or pockets of fat. The procedure isolates fat pockets and utilizes cooling technology to freeze fat cells, which then triggers a slow death of the fat cells over the next 3-4 months.
