Men’s Spa Gift Certificates: the Perfect Father’s Day Gift!

Father’s Day is June 20th – which is only three weeks away! And if your Dad or husband is like ours, he’s extremely difficult to shop for.

Many Dads go out and buy whatever they want for themselves – making gift giving even harder! And we’re pretty sure that the Dad in your life probably does NOT want (or need) another shirt or tie or bottle of cologne for Father’s Day.

We’re finally coming out of the pandemic. But while Dad may not show it, this past challenging year with the worry, uncertainty and isolation of the coronavirus quarantine has likely been just as hard on Dad as it has been on the rest of us. After months of uncertainty, working from home, homeschooling kids, and worrying about the rest of the family, most Dad’s could probably really use some “pampering” right about now.

A gift certificate from AMAE Plastic Surgery & Med Spa let’s you give Dad something he really wants … like a way to get rid of that extra fat from the “Quarantine 15” that many of us have gained.  Or perhaps he would like a little men’s Botox (aka “Brotox”) to erase some of the worry lines from his forehead! Honestly, we don’t know one Dad who wouldn’t want to be thinner or better looking!

And, even better, our Gift Certificates can now be purchased online – making them the ideal Fathers’ Day gift that you can give without even leaving the house to shop.

In this article we tell you about three men’s cosmetic procedures that we offer at our Birmingham Medical Spa that Dad probably really wants, but would never buy for himself. And when you buy a gift certificate online, Dad can choose from these or any service that he likes.

Give Dad Better Abs for Father’s Day with CoolSculpting

After a kid or two, many men develop the dreaded Dad Bod: thicker around the middle, less defined abs, and those chunky “love handles” that don’t respond to diet or exercise.

CoolSculpting is a completely non-invasive, non-surgical fat-removal procedure, with no downtime. A handheld applicator applies cold temperatures to the unwanted fat. This applicator “freezes” or “crystalizes” the fat cells, and the body then naturally eliminates them. This is a permanent fat removal solution – and the fat never comes back to the CoolSculpted area.

CoolSculpting can remove fat and inches from Dad’s waist, abs, “love handles” and even his “double chin”. Why not give Dad a body he (and Mom!) will love, with a gift certificate for CoolSculpting?

Give Dad a Younger Face for Father’s Day with Botox

We know Dad would probably never buy a cosmetic procedure for himself. But we also know that those lines and furrows caused by aging, the stress or work and the pandemic (and worrying about you!) probably bother him a lot.

Botox is a safe, effective and popular treatment for reducing the signs of aging in men as well as women. In fact, more than 500,000 men received Botox treatments in 2019 alone!

Recently many male celebrities – including everyone’s favorite American idol judge Simon Cowell – have openly stated that they rely on Botox for maintaining their youthful, manly good looks!

Our Botox prices are the lowest in the Birmingham, MI area making them a very affordable Father’s Day gift, too. Call us, stop in or purchase a Botox Gift Certificate online today.

Father’s Day Kybella for Dad’s Double Chin

If your Dad has a double chin, he probably hates it and feels very self-conscious about it. But he may not know that you can easily get rid of a double chin with a series of injections that destroy the “submental” fat cells beneath the chin area.

No incisions are required, each treatment only takes about 15 to 20 minutes in our discreet Birmingham Med Spa, and there is little to very minimal downtime for most patients. So Dad can get back to work, with no one having to know he had his double chin “dissolved”.

Best of all Kybella treatment is permanent – so Dad’s double chin won’t ever come back. And he will have the smooth, strong, masculine jawline he’s always wanted! Why not give Dad the best gift ever with a Gift Certificate for Kybella treatments?

4 Cosmetic Procedure Christmas Gifts for Him –

2020 … what a year! Now it’s time to try and celebrate the holidays and find those perfect gifts – while still social distancing! What if there were a perfect gift, guaranteed to “fit”, that you could buy online – without having to leave the house? The answer is: a Plastic Surgery or Body Sculpting Gift Certificate that you can buy online, print at home, and let’s the recipient choose exactly what they want!

If the man in your life is like most of us, he’s had an extremely stressful year. And if he’s a “typical guy” he’s probably also extremely hard to shop for. Chances are he usually buys himself what he wants and needs throughout the year. So coming up with gift ideas that are a surprise – and is something your husband or boyfriend really wants – can be a difficult task! But this year, we’ve got you covered with some suggestions for the perfect Christmas gift that keeps on giving all year round! Even better, every gift on this list will also make YOU happy, too. And there’s no size or color to pick out, and you don’t even have to go to a crowded shopping mall!

You can give any one of the Christmas gifts on this list below with a Cosmetic Surgery Gift Certificate from our prestigious Detroit area plastic surgery office. Your husband, boyfriend, fiancé, father, brother or other special guy can even choose what service he would like – and he can use the gift certificate now, or wait until later in 2021.

1. Give Him CoolSculpting for Christmas

Does he complain about his midsection, gripe about his love handles, or walk around trying to suck in his gut when he’s out in public? What if you could give the guy in your life the body he’s always wanted (or the body he used to have) for Christmas? And we are NOT talking about buying him a new piece of exercise equipment or another gym membership!

We offer several body enhancement and fat loss treatments at our Detroit area cosmetic surgery office that take away his fat in problem areas – to reveal those abs! Our most popular is non-invasive CoolSculpting – which offers non-surgical fat loss – with no downtime!

CoolSculpting is a completely non-invasive fat-removal procedure that removes up to 24% of fat in a treated area. A handheld applicator applies cold temperatures to the unwanted fat. This applicator “freezes” or “crystalizes” the fat cells, and the body then naturally eliminates them. CoolSculpting can remove fat and inches from the waist, abs, and “love handles” – and almost anywhere else on the body, even a “double chin”.

A Gift Certificate for CoolSculpting can help him get rid of the stubborn fat pockets she hates, and reveal the abs he can be proud of – all with no exercise and no downtime!

2. Give Him Liposuction for Christmas

Want to give him the “abs” he’s always wanted for Christmas? Now you can!

Another fat loss procedure most guys would love to find “under the Christmas tree” is a Gift Certificate for tumescent liposuction. Lipo can remove fat from almost any area of the body, including the belly and flanks, as well as the buttocks, thighs, back and arms.

Liposuction is especially ideal for stubborn pockets of fat around a man’s middle that don’t respond to exercise or dieting. Usually this type of fat is hereditary to some degree, and the only way to permanently remove it is with liposuction or CoolSculpting.

Liposuction is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that requires only local anesthetic, and the results are almost immediate. So he can get the liposuction in January and be swimsuit-ready for a February beach vacation or a Detroit area “stay-cation”.

Can’t decide between liposuction and CoolSculpting? No problem! A Gift Certificate from our Detroit area cosmetic surgery office enables your guy to choose the procedure HE wants.

3. Give Yourself a Breast Augmentation for Christmas … that He’ll Love, too!

If you really want to GO BIG for Christmas, then consider scheduling your OWN breast augmentation at our Detroit area Medical Office and Med Spa! This gift to YOURSELF is also one that the man in your life will enjoy for years to come.

We know that he loves you just the way you are! But if you are a bit dissatisfied with (or self conscious about) the size, shape or placement of your breasts, breast enhancement surgery can give you the gorgeous bustline you’ve always wanted.

You’ll look better in clothes – AND in the bedroom – with breast implants that help you love the way you look. And we promise, HE will love the way you look too!

4. Give Him (and You) Better Sex with Vaginal Rejuvenation

Give your partner AND YOURSELF the gift of better sex and improved intimacy this holiday season with a vaginal rejuvenation treatment.

Sadly, childbirth, aging and post-menopausal hormone decrease all take their toll on a woman’s vagina. The vaginal lining can become looser, lax (lacking in tone), dry, and less sensitive. This results in painful sex for the woman and less sensation and less satisfaction for both partners.

But the fantastic news is that a one-time, non-surgical vaginal treatment can “turn back the clock” on female intimacy problems. Radiofrequency “vaginal rejuvenation” restore tightness, elasticity, lubrication and sensation to the vagina – in just one treatment, without surgery and without hormones!

Wouldn’t YOU like to get (and give) better sex for Christmas? The best news is that there is no downtime – and results begin to take effect almost immediately! So there’s still time to schedule a treatment before Christmas! Now that’s a gift he’s sure to love!

Detroit Area Cosmetic Surgery Gift Certificates

Many men are incredibly hard to shop for. And in 2020, spending hours in the mall is no longer an option. But a cosmetic surgery Gift Certificate lets him choose a life changing procedure. After opening his Cosmetic Surgery gift certificate, he can schedule a consultation at our Detroit area Med Spa in Birmingham, MI to discuss the procedures he wants. We will help him decide what treatments are right to achieve his appearance goals, and he’ll be thanking you now and for years to come.

How to Get Thin by Christmas

/in , , /by

How to Get Thin by Christmas – 

Thanksgiving is rapidly approaching, and Christmas & Chanukah are only a couple months away. And many people in the greater Detroit area are looking for a way to “get thin quick” or “lose fat fast.” Even though social gatherings will be smaller this year – we still want to look our best when we attend those family gatherings and Christmas parties – whether they are in person or via Zoom!

Around the holidays our office usually receives many inquiries about how long liposuction or CoolSculpting takes to get results. Additionally, this year, many of us have gained 5 or ten extra pounds during the quarantine and working from home due to less activity, more snacking and the stress of the pandemic!

Dr. Ali is a Detroit area board certified plastic surgeon who has helped hundreds of women and men in the greater Detroit area get the body they want. He offers a wide variety of procedures to remove fat and inches from almost every area of the body, including: liposuction, CoolSculpting, tummy tucks and more. In this article we discuss the time-frames of the most popular body sculpting procedures.

How Long Do Liposuction Results Take?

Liposuction shows results the “fastest” of the most common body sculpting procedures.

Tumescent liposuction is the newest generation liposuction procedures, which uses a “micro-cannula” (tiny tube) to suck out the fat. Tumescent liposuction only involves one procedure and significantly less swelling and “downtime” than older liposuction techniques.

As the swelling goes down (after the first few days up to about 4 to 6 weeks) the liposuction results become visible. Because the fat has been surgically “sucked out” and does not have to be eliminated by the body, the results are immediate – though only visible post-swelling.

Your recovery period will depend on how extensive the procedure was, how much fat was removed, your age, your general health, etc. But in most cases the swelling will subside, and substantial results will be visible in 4 to 6 weeks.

So, if you are hoping for results before Christmas, November is the time to book your liposuction appointment!!

How Long Do CoolSculpting Results Take?

Like liposuction, CoolSculpting can remove stubborn areas of fat that resist diet and exercise – but it is not a weight loss tool.

CoolSculpting is non-surgical and non-invasive – giving it the advantage of having virtually no “downtime” and no period of recovery. However, CoolSculpting, involves multiple treatments.

Patients typically begin to see results within 4-5 weeks, although it may take 3 to 6 months to deliver complete and final results.

So, while CoolSculpting is less invasive, less uncomfortable, and has less downtime, seeing results takes more treatments – and the results take much longer to be visible.

If you book a CoolSculpting appointment in November, you will likely see some – but not complete – results by Christmas.

How Long Do Tummy Tuck Results Take?

A tummy tuck (also called abdominoplasty) is a more invasive procedure than liposuction or CoolSculpting. A tummy tuck tightens “flabby” skin and loose muscle, while liposuction or CoolSculpting only remove excess fat.

Immediately following your tummy tuck, loose, sagging skin will be gone – but some swelling will continue. Gradually the swelling decreases over a period of several weeks, revealing the firm, tight skin and muscles.

A tummy tuck typically requires general anesthesia. An incision is made across the lower in order to remove excess abdominal skin and tighten the abdominal muscles. This does result in a longer recovery time and more intense discomfort.

Scheduling a tummy tuck in November will reveal a tighter abdomen by Christmas.  But, realistically, because it is actual surgery, it will be after the holidays before complete results of your tummy tuck will be visible. Additionally, if you elect to have a tummy tuck before the holidays – care must be taken not to “overdo it” during your recovery period.

Best Detroit Area Liposuction Surgeon

Dr. Ali has helped hundreds of women and men across the greater Detroit area get the body they want with liposuction, CoolSculpting, tummy tucks, and other non-invasive, minimally-invasive and surgical procedures. He will be happy to offer you a consultation to help you understand your options and results time-frame, so you can choose the best procedure for your goals.

And remember, liposuction financing options are also available!

How to Look Thinner on Zoom (Part 1)

8 Ways to Look Thinner on Zoom (Part 1) – 

There have been many surprising changes to our lifestyles during the pandemic. One of these is that many of us our finding ourselves “on camera” and being videoed for the first time in our life. And, whether we are participants or presenters in Zoom meetings, we are all becoming acutely aware that the old adage is true: “the camera adds ten pounds.”

And while some Zoom meeting just involve a few close colleagues, others are taped for broadcast, watching and re-watching company-wide. Couple this with the fact that many of us have gained a few (or fifteen) extra pounds from the more sedentary stay-at-home lifestyle of the quarantine – and both women and men are becoming increasingly concerned about looking chubby on camera.

The good news is that there are both “camera tricks” and aesthetic treatments that can make you appear slimmer on camera (and off!). In addition to using lighting, highlighting and camera angles to your advantage, Dr. Ali offers the fastest and safest aesthetic procedures for losing the “quarantine fifteen” so you look more like a celebrity – and less like a couch potato on camera.

Camera Tricks to Look Thinner in Zoom Meetings

Let’s first start with some easy “basics” here, to looking thinner on Zoom and other video platforms.

#1. Camera Placement: Make sure your camera is at eye level to look thinner.

If the camera is below you, and angled up, everyone is getting a birds-eye view of the underside of your chin. And, unless you’re a fit twenty-five year old (or George Clooney), looking up at the flesh beneath the chin is rarely a flattering angle.

#2. Body Placement: Sit at a slight angle to the camera to look thinner on Zoom.

Most people sit facing the camera directly…often leaning back slightly. This will make your face and body look wider and more square. Think “side-saddle” when sitting in your office chair, which places your body at a more slimming 45 degree angle to the camera.

And, leaning back accentuates both the belly and (double) chin. So, don’t forget to sit up straight! In addition to making you look more confident and professional, pressing the shoulders back will help elongate the neck and make the face look slimmer, too!

#3. Head Placement: Tilt the forehead slightly forward to look thinner on Zoom.

This is an old photographers’ “trick” that works equally well on Zoom and in videos, as it does in still photos. Tilting the forehead slightly forward will make the face look longer and less round. It also casts a shadow over the chin, concealing any excess fat below the jaw.

#4. Wear Dark, Fitted Clothing: Avoid vertical stripes, loud prints and baggy clothes to look thinner on Zoom.

In person, your colleagues can tell where your clothes end and you begin. But on a smaller video screen wide or loose clothes simply make your body look wide, too. Additionally, anything that draws the eye from side to side – like horizontal stripes – also makes you look bigger. And busy patterns and bright colors also draw the eye’s focus to the body.

#5. Contour with Make-Up or an Angled Beard: this reduces the chin’s appearance in women or men with “shadowing.”

For hundreds of years men have been hiding their double chins with a well-trimmed beard! The sharper the angles of the beard, the squarer the jaw will appear. Women can achieve a similar illusion of a slimmer face by creating subtle shadows around the jawline, along the sides of the face, and under the cheekbones with well-placed contouring. (see illustrations, below).

Aesthetic Treatments to Look Thinner on Zoom

These “tricks” can certainly help you look thinner when on camera. But the reality is, camera angles can only go so far to disguise unwanted fat on the face and body. Fortunately, there are three fast, affordable and non-invasive or minimally invasive procedures offered at AMAE Med Spa in the Detroit area that can actually permanently get rid of unwanted fat on the face and the body.

8 Ways to Look Thinner on Zoom (Part 2) – 

In Part 1 of this Article we revealed 5 camera “tricks” that can help you look thinner when on camera, whether in Zoom meetings, Facetiming or taking Selfies. But the reality is, camera angles can only go so far to disguise unwanted fat on the face and body. Fortunately, there are three fast, affordable and non-invasive or minimally invasive procedures offered at AMAE Med Spa in the Detroit area that can actually permanently get rid of unwanted fat on the face and the body.

With non-invasive CoolSculpting for body or double chin, Kybella double chin injections, and/or liposuction, you can permanently get rid of unwanted fat so that you look great on camera … and “IRL” when things get back to normal!

Aesthetic Treatments to Look Thinner on Zoom

#1. Kybella Double Chin Injections to Look Thinner on Zoom

Kybella eliminates a double chin through a series of injections under the jaw that “dissolve” the fat cells. The destroyed fat cells are then eliminated by the body’s natural metabolic processes.

Most Kybella patients see a 50 percent fat reduction after just two sessions, and a 70 percent reduction after four Kybella treatments – meaning your face can look 70% thinner in Zoom meetings with Kybella!

#2. CoolSculpting Fat Loss to Look Thinner on Zoom

CoolSculpting is a non-invasive, non-surgical treatment that literally freezes away unwanted fat almost anywhere on the body – including the chin, for which it was recently FDA approved.

Once the fat cells are frozen and destroyed, they are gradually expelled from the body through natural elimination processes and can never come back.

Because it takes a while for the body to absorb and eliminate the frozen fat cells, CoolSculpting results take longer than liposuction to be visible – with results beginning to appear 4 to 5 weeks after treatment, and 3 to 5 months to deliver final results.

#3. Liposuction to Look Thinner on Zoom (and “IRL”!)

Liposuction offers the largest amount of fat loss with the most rapidly visible results. Liposuction can be used as a body contouring technique – safely removing up to 11 pounds of unwanted fat. It is also an ideal tool for sculpting the face, neck and double chin.

Only local anesthetic is required for modern liposuction, which is less invasive. And, unlike CoolSculpting or Kybella, liposuction requires only one treatment, and the results are visible as soon as swelling subsides!

While there is some downtime after liposuction, many patients have found that it’s an ideal time to come in for lipo – since thy can work-from-home while they are recovering … and no one will even know they had anything done.

Aesthetic Treatments to Look Thinner on Zoom

It’s proven that the camera does add 10 pounds to a person’s appearance! And, in addition to being more aware of our appearance on camera thanks to increased Zoom and Facetime, many of us have packed on the “quarantine 15” due to more time snacking a home and less time being active. But whether your motivation to look thinner is Zoom meetings or “real life” board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ali has the aesthetic fat loss treatments to make your face and body look thinner, younger and more well-proportioned.

Schedule a fat loss consultation with Dr. Ali, in person or via video chat, and see which fat loss treatments will make you look like a star every day!

Four Ways to Get Thinner Arms & Tighten Arm Skin

/in , , , /by

Four Ways to Get Thinner Arms & Tighten Arm Skin –

Arm fat, as well as unsightly flabby skin that hangs down from the arms, can make a man or woman self-conscious about baring their arms in tank tops, bathing suits or sleeveless clothing.

Arm fat can be especially frustrating for women preparing for a big event – such as a wedding or other formal occasion! Because the latest fashions in wedding gowns, bridesmaid dresses, and evening wear, are most often sleeveless, excess arm fat or skin can turn dress shopping from a joyous occasion to one of sadness and disappointment.

But that does NOT have to be the case. At AMAE in the Troy, MI area we offer several surgical as well as non-surgical / non-invasive treatments that can trim and tone arms.

Non-Surgical, Non-Invasive Arm Fat Treatment

At AMAE in the Troy, MI area we offer CoolSculpting to get rid of arm fat – the #1 non-invasive procedure in the world for permanently reducing arm fat!  CoolSculpting gets rid of arm fat painlessly and permanently – without surgery, diet or exercise.

A single CoolSculpting treatment will typically reduce the fat layer thickness in the arms by 20-25% in just a single treatment.  And, additional treatments will produce even more fat reduction in the upper arms.

Full results develop over time, as the body naturally eliminates the frozen fat cells – so schedule CoolSculpting three to four months before the big event to see complete arm fat reduction results by the big day!

Non-Surgical, Non-Invasive Arm Skin Tightening

While CoolSculpting has some mild, but not dramatic skin, tightening effects, we also offer state-of-the-art new Profound skin tightening. Profound can be used on its own to tighten lax, flabby arm skin – or in conjunction with CoolSculpting to reduce fat and tone loose skin on the arms.

In 2020 we AMAE in the Troy, MI area added the newly released Profound radiofrequency microneedling. Profound stimulates renewed production of collagen and elastin – the building blocks of tight, toned, elastic skin. Profound also rejuvenates the production of hyaluronic acid, another substance produced by the body to yield smoother, tighter skin.

Surgical Arm Fat Removal

For larger amounts of arm fat removal liposuction can be highly effective. Only minute, well concealed scars will be left that fade over time.

Liposuction immediately removes fat from the arms by sucking it out through a small straw-like cannula. After about 3 weeks, most of the swelling will have gone down leaving visible results. These results will continue to improve over the next 6 months or so.

There is down time of two or three days after liposuction – with a compression garment worn for 10 days or so, and limits on physical activity for a few weeks. So make sure to schedule your liposuction well in advance of any big event.

Surgical Arm Skin Tightening

People with decent skin elasticity may see their arms naturally “bounce back” and tighten after liposuction. Others with more skin laxity may need to tighten the remaining skin with Profound radiofrequency, discussed above. But patients with excessive amounts of loose, hanging or flabby skin may want to consider a surgical arm lift for optimal arm skin tightening and toning.

With new surgical techniques and technologies, arm lift surgery is now safer, easier, less invasive and more comfortable than ever. As a result, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons reports that, over the last 10 years, the number of arm lift surgeries performed in the U.S. has increased by a whopping 4,378%!

Thanks to these advancements, arm lift surgery patients are able to enjoy better results than ever, with smaller less conspicuous scars and significantly less downtime.

During arm lift surgery, excess skin from the upper arm (sometimes known as a “bat wing”) is surgically removed, using incisions that are strategically placed to be less visible.  The remaining skin is then tightly pulled together and sutured – leaving trim, toned arms.

Downtime can range from 1 to 2 weeks, and strenuous activities must also be avoided for about 6 weeks after arm lift surgery. But patients universally agree that the longer recovery period is well worth it to achieve the most dramatically trimmed and tightened arms possible.

Get Thinner Arms & Tighter Arm Skin – Troy, MI

Schedule a consultation at AMAE with renowned Troy, Mi area plastic surgeon Dr. Ali. He will help you determine the best procedure(s) for you to get thinner arms and tighter arm skin. Then a custom treatment plan will be put in place so you can get the arms you love – and wear the clothes you want – with confidence!

3 Surprising Ways to Get Rid of Back Fat

/in , , /by

3 Ways to Get Rid of Back Fat (#3 Will Surprise You!)

If you have unwanted back fat – sometimes called “bra rolls” or “back bulges” – you know that it simply does not respond to diet or exercise. Even women at or near their ideal weight can suffer from dreaded, unsightly back fat – especially as they get older.

Back fat can squeeze out from beneath bra bands and straps, ruining the appearance of t-shirts and other fitted clothing, or apparel made from thin material. And, sadly, back fat can make a woman think twice about even considering a sleeveless wedding dress or evening gown.

The good news is that AMAE Plastic Surgery and Med Spa in the greater Troy, MI area offers three fast, affordable and permanent solutions to back fat. And the third back fat treatment option we offer is sure to surprise most people! Bra roll reduction can be done via liposuction, CoolSculpting, and now by Kybella injection!

What Causes Back Fat

There are two primary causes of back fat. And the first simply can’t be helped: heredity. The placement of fat on our bodies is primarily determined by our genes. That’s why even “thin” people can have stubborn fat deposits on their thighs or their back – no matter how much they work out or how little they eat.

Additionally, as women age, the spine compresses causing a loss of height. According to a report by the AARP, women lose an average two inches in height between the ages of 30 and 70, and by age 80, most women have shrunk a total of three inches.

So, if you put the same amount of hereditary back skin and fat on a smaller frame, it is simply going to “bulge” more as the woman loses inches. Fortunately, all three treatments available at AMAE Plastic Surgery and Med Spa in the Troy, Mi area can get rid of back fat – so you feel confident and sexy in whatever you wear!

#1. Liposuction to Get Rid of Back Fat

The fastest way to remove the largest amount of fat that has accumulated in their upper or lower back is liposuction. Some of the most dramatic results from liposuction can be seen when it is applied to the back.  Patients can lose several ounces or even pounds of fat with lipo. A tube-like device called a cannula is gently inserted into the fat layer of the back and the fat cells are suctioned out. Once the back fat cells are removed, they are gone for good and fat cells can never return in that area!

back fat liposuction troy macomb county area#2. CoolSculpting to Get Rid of Back Fat

CoolSculpting is a less invasive method for getting rid of back fat – killing fat cells by freezing them, after which they are eliminated by the body. CoolSculpting can reduces approximately 20 to 25% percent of the fullness of the “back bulge” during a single 35-minute session – without incisions or surgery. And multiple treatments can remove even more.

A specially designed CoolSculpting applicator called the CoolCurve is specially shaped to target and eliminate unwanted back fat. Results begin to show after a few weeks but will become dramatically visible after several months, as the body continues to flush the frozen and destroyed fat cells. And there is no downtime with CoolSculpting back fat removal.

#3. Kybella to Get Rid of Back Fat

The newest and most surprising way to get rid of back fat is with Kybella injections! Originally approved to destroy and eliminate unwanted submental fat in the “double chin” area, Kybella has more recently proven effective at reducing bra fat rolls. The FDA approved Kybella to get rid of back fat in 2018.

Kybella is an injectable medicine that literally dissolves fat, much in the same way that a detergent can break down grease. A series of “shots” targets and dissolves the fat in the bra roll, and then the body removes the liquified fat through its natural elimination processes.

Kybella typically requires multiple treatments, depending on the amount of back fat being targeted. But on average, 2 or 3 Kybella sessions are all that is needed to get rid of small to moderate-sized “bra bulges”.

Get Rid of Back Fat – Troy, MI

Once back liposuction, CoolSculpting or Kybella remove back rolls and bulges they will never come back. As a result, patients permanently experience a more slender and contoured physique. Your clothes, sleeveless dresses, bathing suits (and lingerie!) will look better. And you will have a new sense of self-esteem and confidence, on the beach, at the banquet, or in the boardroom or the bedroom!

Lose the “Quarantine 15” with CoolSculpting

Lose the “Quarantine 15” with CoolSculpting: No Dieting or Exercise!

After months of social distancing and working-from-home, many of us are looking in the mirror and seeing some extra fat from the extra hours spent in front of the TV or computer snacking. Dubbed the “Quarantine 15” by the media, most experts seem to think that the average person’s pandemic weight gain is about 3 to 5 pounds.

But whether you have gained an extra 5 pounds or an extra 15 pounds, fat loss is probably high on your list of priorities. And with summer almost over – an outdoor exercise coming to an end – it’s easy to get frustrated by unsightly jiggle on the belly, thighs, love handles, hips and arms.

Thankfully, the Detroit area fat loss experts at AMAE Plastic Surgery offer two state-of-the-art, rapid and effective fat loss treatments to permanently get rid of the Quarantine 15: CoolSculpting and Liposuction. In this article Detroit area board certified plastic surgeon Dr. M. Azhar Ali discusses the benefits of non-invasive CoolSculpting for fat loss… without dieting or exercise.

The Cost of CoolSculpting vs. Diet & Exercise

According to market research firms, Americans spend more than $60 billion every year to try to lose fat and unwanted pounds – and yet few are successful. And those who do lose the weight, typically “yo-yo” and put the weight back on within a year… starting the cycle of diet spending all over again.

How CoolSculpting Works without Diet or Exercise

It really is NOT your fault if you accumulate stubborn fat in unwanted areas! You see, your DNA determines where your body will deposit fat. The number of fat cells in our bodies becomes fixed in our teenage years and losing weight simply does not decrease this number of fat cells.

As you gain weight, the fat cells on your body may get bigger, however the number of fat cells does not increase. And in the same way, when you diet and exercise, the cells may get smaller but the number of fat cells stays the same.

So even with diet and exercise, you can still have a jiggly middle, or stubborn muffin top, or other stubborn fat pocket that just won’t go away. It’s not your fault, it’s your DNA!

CoolSculpting uses a handheld applicator to apply cold temperatures to the unwanted fat. Mild suction pulls the fat bulges into the applicator. The applicator “freezes” or “crystalizes” the fat cells. This literally “kills” the fat cells. Your body then eliminates the fat cells over time.

Once the fat cells are gone, they are gone for good! They never come back. And this is something that all of the diet and exercise in the world cannot accomplish.

Get CoolSculpting in September – Be Thin by Thanksgiving

September is the perfect time to consider CoolSculpting – because your results will be dramatically visible by the time the holidays roll around.

Once the fat is frozen, your body’s lymphatic system will gradually remove the dead fat cells over time. Because it takes time for the body to eliminate the dead fat cells, CoolSculpting results start to be visible after 2 to 4 weeks. But the most dramatic results typically become visible in around 2 months.  Complete and final results will appear in 3 to five months.

So September is the perfect time to get started on your fat loss plan! Whether you see your friends and family in person or virtually this Thanksgiving and Christmas, they will be amazed at the new slender you that has emerged from Quarantine!

How Much Does CoolSculpting Cost in the Troy, MI Area?

As the Troy, MI area’s top provider of state-of-the-art CoolSculpting fat freezing treatments, many of our patient’s first questions is “How much does CoolSculpting cost?”

In this article our fat loss experts provide you with the facts and figures you need to understand how CoolSculpting pricing and discounts work, to give you the fat loss results you want almost anywhere on your body.

Best Troy, MI Area, CoolSculpting Prices

We completely understand that during these financially uncertain times, every penny counts. That is why we offer the best CoolSculpting prices in the Troy, MI area – along with special CoolSculpting discounts during the month of May, 2020.

Everybody’s fat loss needs are different – so each person will have a customized CoolSculpting treatment plan, which means the cost will vary from person to person.

Calculating CoolSculpting Prices

Your CoolSculpting cost will depend on two factors: the number of areas to be treated, and the amount of fat to be removed.

CoolSculpting can remove from 20-25% of the fat in a treated area in one procedure. So a person with less fat to lose may only need one treatment – while a person with a larger amount of fat to lose may require multiple treatments. Obviously, as with any service, multiple CoolSculpting treatments will cost more than a single treatment.

Additionally, some individuals may only need to lose fat from their belly or their love handles, while others may want to have fat removed from their belly, back, thighs and arms. There is a cost for each area treated – so the price for individuals treating more areas is higher than it is for patients treating one area.

That’s why we offer a consultation to put together a personalized treatment plan and determine an exact price.  You will meet with one of our experienced and certified CoolSculpting technicians who will discuss the areas you want treated, take measurements, and put together a plan and a CoolSculpting price for you.

To help you invest in the body you’ll love, we offer package discounts – as well as monthly specials – including this month’s May 2020 special of $500 OFF CoolSculpting!
