What’s Better, CoolSculpting or Liposuction?

/in , /by

CoolSculpting vs. Liposuction –

CoolSculpting and Liposuction are two of Dr. Ali’s most popular – yet very different – fat loss treatments. Dr. Ali has helped hundreds of women and men in Birmingham, West Bloomfield & Oakland County get the body they want using these procedures.

In this article we discuss differences between Liposuction & CoolSculpting – to help you begin deciding which procedure is right for you.

Remember you are unique! What is the best fat loss procedure for one person may not be right for someone else. The best way to decide on your ideal fat loss treatment is a consultation with Dr. Ali. He will evaluate your situation and provide detailed answers to your questions, so that you can chose the best fat loss treatment plan for your goals.

CoolSculpting Procedure

CoolSculpting and Liposuction both remove stubborn areas of fat that resist diet and exercise.  However, neither Liposuction nor CoolSculpting are weight loss tools for obesity and they do not remedy flabby or loose abdominal skin or muscles.

However, CoolSculpting is non-surgical and non-invasive. This means that there is no incision and no need for anesthetic. This also means that there no “downtime” and you can resume normal activities immediately after the treatment. In fact many people go back to work the same day!

CoolSculpting typically involves more than one treatment – while Liposuction is generally done in a single treatment.

The CoolSculpting process “freezes” the fat to kill the fat cells. The body then gradually and naturally eliminates the dead fat cells.

Because it takes time for the body to eliminate the dead fat cells, with CoolSculpting you will begin to see results after 2 to 4 weeks. And it may take 2 months for more dramatic results, and up to 3 to 5 months to deliver complete and final results. Full results will eventually reduce the area treated by 20 to 25%.

Liposuction Procedure

Unlike non-invasive CoolSculpting, Liposuction is a surgical technique that removes the excess fat deposits located between the skin and muscle.

In most cases Liposuction is performed under local anesthesia.  A very small (less than 3mm) incision is made inLiposuction – but typically there are no stitches and no (or unnoticeable) scars.

While CoolSculpting waits for the body to eliminate the fat cells, Liposuction actually suctions the fat cells out at the time of the procedure. This means only one treatment is typically needed.

The patient can go home within a half hour after the procedure, however there is some downtime with Liposuction. The recovery time for Liposuction is from 2 to 7 days before normal activity can be resumed. And mild pain (treatable with medication) or discomfort gradually subsides over a period of 2 weeks up to 8 weeks.

Once the swelling goes down in 4 to 6 weeks, the Liposuction results are visible “immediately”. This is because the fat has been surgically “sucked out” and there is no need to wait for the body to eliminate it.

In summary, CoolSculpting is less invasive, less uncomfortable, and has less downtime than Liposuction. But CoolSculpting usually requires more treatments than Lipo, and CoolSculpting results take more treatments and the results take longer to be visible.

Best CoolSculpting in Birmingham, West Bloomfield & Oakland County

The best way to determine which fat loss treatment is best for you is to discuss your goals with a board certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Ali who offers both procedures. Dr. Ali will assess your skin, muscles, body, lifestyle and goals to help you chose the best treatment for your individual needs.

As an aside, it is wise to be very wary of doctors or clinic that only offer one type of fat loss procedure. They may try to steer or pressure you into the procedure they offer – even if another procedure would be better for you. Only a surgeon like Dr. Ali who offers multiple treatment options can give you the array of choices you need to find what’s best for your fat loss goals.

Dr. Ali has helped hundreds of women and men across Birmingham, West Bloomfield, Bloomfield Hills & Oakland County get the body they want with CoolSculpting and Liposuction. He will be happy to offer you a consultation to help you understand your options and decide if CoolSculpting or Lipo is right for you.

Update: FDA Approves CoolSculpting for Lax, Loose Skin

/in /by

FDA Approves CoolSculpting for Double Chin Lax Skin –

Skin laxity refers to “loose” skin that has lost its firmness, tightness or elasticity. Think of sagging skin under the chin, or the so-called “bat wings” that hang down from arms. These are types of lax skin.

There are two primary causes of skin laxity: chronological aging (getting older) and photo ageing (exposure to sun or other environmental toxins, such as smoking or pollution). Poor diet can also accelerate skin laxity, due to a lack of circulating antioxidants that regenerate the skin.

In chronological ageing, the skin produces less collagen and elastin and the fibril layers loosen and become less organized, as we get older. As a result the skin becomes thinner and sags. However, photo aging accelerates this process by exposure to sun, cigarette smoke, pollution or poor diet that makes the skin older “before its time”.

Additionally, large or sudden weight loss can result in loose or sagging skin. And, some loose or sagging skin – for example a double chin – may be hereditary.

Treating Lax Skin with CoolSculpting

Anyone with skin laxity will tell you that creams only go so far – and that there are no miracle ointments that cure lax skin. Up until recently, surgical “tightening” was the only 100% successful way to remove lax skin. And for some people – such as those who have experienced significant weight loss – surgical skin tightening is still the best (and possible only) remedy for loose skin.

Nonetheless, the search for a non-surgical treatment for lax skin has been ongoing. One area that is particularly troublesome to treat has always been the “double chin” or so-called “turkey neck”.

However, this month the FDA announced that the CoolSculpting® treatment is the first and only non-surgical fat reduction technology to be FDA-cleared for improved appearance of lax tissue in double chins, (also called submental fat).

How CoolSculpting Treats Double Chin Lax Skin

A 2017 survey conducted by the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS) revealed that 73 percent of adults are bothered by excess fat under the chin to some extent!

CoolSculpting for the double chin had already been clinically proven to reduce fat under the chin of up to 20 percent after just one treatment. And in most patients, two CoolSculpting CoolMini treatments are sufficient to restore a defined appearance to the jaw line.

An 18-week clinical study of CoolSculpting used on double chin areas found that 77 percent of patients showed an improvement in their lax tissue. And 75 percent of patients reported that their chin looked more toned following just a single treatment.

Based on these stunning results, the CoolMini® applicator for the CoolSculpting® system treatment of the submental (chin) area was approved by the FDA this month.

Best CoolSculpting in the Southfield Area

Of course, other double chin treatment options also exist – including Kybella, liposuction and neck lift surgery.  The best way to determine which double chin treatment is best for you is to discuss your goals with a board certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Ali who offers Kybella, CoolSculpting, Liposuction and more – in addition to other double chin remedies such as surgical neck lifts. Dr. Ali will assess your double chin and help you choose the best treatment for your individual needs.

It is wise to be very wary of doctors or clinic that only offer one type of double chin procedure. They may try to steer or pressure you into the one procedure they offer – even if another procedure would be better for you. Only a surgeon like Dr. Ali who offers multiple treatment options can give you the choices you need, so you can chose the double chin treatment that is best for you.

Dr. Ali has helped hundreds of women and men across the Detroit & Ann Arbor area get the jawline they have always wanted with FDA approved CoolSculpting, Kybella, Liposuction and Neck Lifts. He will be happy to offer you a consultation to help you understand your options and decide which double chin treatment is right for you. And remember, financing options are also available!

New Year’s Resolution 2018: Lose Inches with CoolSculpting!

/in /by

New Year’s Resolution: Lose Inches with CoolSculpting, without Diet or Exercise!

It’s that time of year again, when we all make “New Year’s Resolutions”. And every year the number one resolution in America is to diet and exercise. Yet every year, very few people follow through with their plans to improve their bodies.

This year, why not consider CoolSculpting – and actually get the body you want once and for all, without crash diets & endless 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 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.

For many American’s the pursuit of a more beautiful body is a lifelong challenge that is never accomplished. Dieting, depriving themselves, exhausting themselves at the gym, only to get frustrated with slow or no progress. They end up spending thousands of dollars with no results to show.

However, our CoolSculpting treatments begin at only $700. And the results are permanent. So you spend once, get the results you want, and never again waste money on fad diets, dangerous diet pills, or expensive gym memberships!

Most American families spend approximately $1000 every year on Christmas gifts for everyone else! Isn’t it time to give yourself the gift of the body you’ve always wanted? And with our financing options, you can get started today.

How CoolSculpting Works without Diet or Exercise

It really is NOT your fault if you break your New Year’s Resolution and give up on diet and exercise every year! 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 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 b 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.

CoolSculpting in January – Swimsuits in June

January is the perfect time to consider CoolSculpting – because your results will be complete by the time swimsuit season rolls 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. And it may take 2 months for more dramatic results, and up to 3 to 5 months to deliver complete and final results.

So January is the perfect time to get started! By June your body will be 100% bathing suit ready. Your partner and friends will be amazed at the “new you” that emerges from your winter sweater and into that bold bikini!

Detroit Area’s Best CoolSculpting

Isn’t it time you finally achieved your New Year’s Resolution – and got the slimmer, trimmer, more beautiful body you’v e always wanted?

Dr. Ali has helped hundreds of women and men across Oakland County, including Birmingham, Rochester Hills, Troy and the surrounding area lose the fat, and get the body they want with CoolSculpting.

Double Chin: CoolSculpting vs. Kybella

/in , /by

What’s Better for Getting Rid of a Double Chin: CoolSculpting or Kybella?

Nobody wants a double chin – but unfortunately this area of fat is usually hereditary and impossible to lose with diet or exercise. Fortunately, new non-surgical technologies such as Kybella Injections and CoolSculpting “fat freezing” can now reduce or eliminate dreaded double chins!

For decades, surgical procedures – including liposuction and neck lifts – were the only option for getting rid of extra fat (“submental fullness”) under the chin.  Now patients have multiple non-surgical options when it comes to getting rid of their double chin.

Dr. Ali has helped hundreds of men and women in the Detroit and Ann Arbor get the sleek, defined jawline that they have always wanted. In this article he discusses which treatment is better for a double chin: Kybella or CoolSculpting?

Kybella for Double Chin

Kybella is the only injection approved by the FDA for eliminating unwanted fat beneath the chin. Kybella is a synthetic version of the substance dexoycholic acid, which causes the rapid destruction and absorption of fat cells – and also prevents future fat accumulation. The destroyed fat cells are slowly eliminated by body’s natural metabolic processes.

Coolsculpting for Double Chin

CoolSculpting is a non-surgical body treatment that literally freezes unwanted fat.  The dead fat cells are then gradually expelled from the body through natural processes. The fat removal is permanent and the double chin will not recur.

The FDA has recently approved CoolSculpting for treatments of smaller areas of the body, including under the chin. A new applicator called the CoolMini targets fat cells in double chins to freeze them off.

Similarities of Kybella & CoolSculpting for Double Chin

In both procedures only fat cells are targeted, and all other cells and tissue are not affected at all. And both Kybella and Coolsculpting Coolmini can dramatically improve the chin area, and substantially define the jawline.

Additionally, both treatments are non-surgical – meaning no scarring, no anesthesia, and no downtime with either Kybella or CoolSculpting. Side effects of both Kybella and Coolsculpting CoolMini are minimal, and may include swelling, bruising, redness, or discomfort that typically subsides in less than a week.

Differences of Kybella & CoolSculpting for Double Chin

Individuals who dislike needles may prefer CoolSculpting, as Kybella is performed through a series of injections.

However, because it is injectable, Kybella can treat smaller, more precise or isolated areas of the chin.  While CoolSculpting treats the whole area, rather than smaller targeted areas.

CoolScupting CoolMini may be preferable for patients with loose or mature skin, as it has recently been proven to have some skin tightening effects on “lax” neck skin.

Treatments Required

While improvements are possible after a single treatment of Kybella or CoolSculpting CoolMini, most patients will require a series of treatments in order to achieve their final desired result.

Kybella sessions normally last 10 to 20 minutes, and involve multiple injections. Almost all patients require multiple sessions in order to achieve optimal results. Most individuals require three to six sessions of Kybella to fully treat the double chin.

CoolSculpting sessions lasts approximately 45 minutes. Patients typically require two sessions to fully eliminate all of their unwanted double chin fat, but generally will see a noticeably stronger jaw after just one treatment.

Results Time

With Kybella, most patients see a 50 percent fat reduction after just two sessions, and a 70 percent reduction after four – with full results after six Kybella treatments. Kybella requires the dead fat cells to be metabolized and eliminated by the body, so it will be a few weeks after each treatment before you see the fat start to melt away.

A single CoolSculpting Mini session can reduce neck fat by up to 20-25 percent, with similar results in each successive treatment. It can take approximately 8-12 weeks for your body to break down and metabolize crystallized fat cells after a CoolSculpting CoolMini session.

Best CoolSculpting in Detroit & Ann Arbor

The best way to determine which double chin treatment is best for you is to discuss your goals with a board certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Ali who offers Kybella and CoolSculpting – in addition to other double chin remedies such as liposuction and neck lifts. Dr. Ali will assess your double chin and help you choose the best treatment for your individual needs.

CoolSculpting for Gynecomastia & Male Breasts

CoolSculpting for Gynecomastia: Get Rid of Male Breasts & “Man Boobs”!

Gynecomastia (male breasts, “man boobs” or “moobs”) can be an embarrassing and confidence shattering condition for men. However, a new, affordable, non-surgical treatment called CoolSculpting™ has proven very effective in reducing the size of male breasts for many men.

Dr. Ali has helped many men with fatty breast areas achieve the more masculine chest they desire with CoolSculpting. Now you can enjoy the beach, feel more attractive during sex, and look better at the gym – all while leaving your T-shirt behind.

Gynecomastia & Pseudo-Gynecomastia

Gynecomastia is the medical term for abnormal development of large mammary glands in men – resulting in enlarged breasts. Pseudo-gynecomastia is the excess deposit of fat in a man’s chest, which gives the appearance of breasts. These two different types of gynecomastia have different causes and different treatment options.

True gynecomastia is results from a hormonal imbalance, and is typically treated with hormone therapy – and sometimes requires surgery to remove the breast glandular tissue. CoolSculpting is not used for “true” or “hormonal” gynecomastia – however board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ali can provide you with other effective male breast reduction options for hormonal gynecomastia

CoolSculpting, however, very effectively reduces the male breast fat deposits in pseudo-gynecomastia. Dr. Ali can help you determine which type you have – and the best treatment options – in a private and discreet consultation.

CoolSculpting for Pseudo- Gynecomastia

If you are a candidate for CoolSculpting male breast reduction, the treatment only takes about 1 hour per side. It is completely non-surgical and non-invasive – so there is no unsightly scarring, and no one will ever be able to tell you had the procedure done!

A special machine is used to freeze the fatty areas of the male breast. Over the next 2 to 3 months, the fat cells will be naturally eliminated by the body – and you will see the size of the breasts reduce dramatically.

Since there is no downtime, you can resume your normal activities. Many men go back to work the same day as their CoolSculpting male breast reduction!

A single CoolSculpting procedure will eliminate about 20% of the fat cells, so a second treatment is sometimes recommended for optimal results. Full results are seen in about 2 months, after the frozen fat cells have been fully eliminated. (Faster benefits may be achieved with liposuction, however “lipo” is a surgical procedure with some downtime.)

Is CoolSculpting for Male Breasts Safe?

CoolSculpting is 100% safe for men and women. The only reported side effects are slight swelling, bruising or discomfort that subsides with a week or so.

While CoolSculpting has not yet been specifically approved for male breast reduction, Dr. Ali and many of his colleagues have had excellent results using CoolSculpting for “off label” man breast treatment.

In fact a new CoolAdvantage applicator is an excellent choice for treating most pseudo-gynecomastia “man boobs”. In the skilled and experienced hands of board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ali, CoolSculpting can very effectively contour your chest into a more manly and masculine appearance.

Get Rid of Male Breasts & “Man Boobs” with CoolSculpting

Though it is not often talked about, Gynecomastia is more common than many people think, and it affects a large percentage of men.  However, CoolSculpting now provides a safe and effective non-surgical treatment for male Pseudo-Gynecomastia.

CoolSculpting for Pseudo-Gynecomastia is ideal for:

  • Small to moderate male breasts
  • “Man Boobs” that are NOT the result of obesity
  • Men’s breasts that are NOT the result of hormonal imbalance
  • Male breasts primarily composed of fatty tissue
  • Men with no desire for surgery
  • Men who want NO downtime or recovery period
  • Men who can wait four to eight weeks to see results

Don’t let embarrassment keep you from doing something about your male breasts.

Celebrities That Have Had CoolSculpting –

It’s no secret that most of today’s actors, actresses, models and celebrities have had “some work done” in order to look their best on and off the red carpet. The “fat freezing” technology called “CoolSculpting” is among the most popular non-surgical procedures for Hollywood movers and shakers – enabling them to look slim and trim – without surgery!

For many years celebrities didn’t discuss their fat loss secrets – preferring everyone to think they were simply “born beautiful.” But now more and more actresses are coming forward to discuss their love of the fast, effective CoolSculpting fat loss procedure!

Khloé Kardashian Has Had CoolSculpting

Thirty-two year old reality star Khloé Kardashian transformed her look this past year, slimming down and toning up! Tired of always being the “bigger” Kardashian sister, Khloé attributes her “new body” to diet, exercise, and CoolSculpting!

Though she still vehemently denies using “Botox” she is an open and enthusiastic advocate for CoolSculpting.  (And rumor has it that her sister Kim, also loves CoolSculpting to achieve those killer curves!)

“Perfect” Jennifer Aniston & CoolSculpting

Now well into her 40s, Jennifer Aniston looks as beautiful and slim as she did as Rachel on the TV series “Friends”. So how did she stop aging like the rest of us?

Aniston, recently told InStyle Magazine she “loves lasers and non-invasive treatments,” leading to speculation that she has used CoolSculpting to target some trouble areas.

Debra Messing Has Had CoolSculpting

Didn’t you just love the “Will & Grace” reunion? Thankfully, the show has been picked up for another season starting in January! But how does adorable “Grace” (Debra Messing) look as great as she did when the original series ended 11 years ago?

Emmy Award-winning actress, and mom, Debra Messing is outspoken about her love for CoolSculpting, saying that: “Coolsculpting® is my best discovery of the year!”

With her series being revived, Debra opted for the CoolSculpting non-invasive fat reduction treatment to help feel “as authentic and beautiful as possible”. She went on to say that with CoolSculpting, “I like myself. I like my body. It’s just a slightly better version.”

In an interview, Debra explained that during wardrobe fittings, her outfits fit better, feel better, and look better!

Molly Sims Has Had CoolSculpting

Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Molly Simms turned 44 this year. An outspoken fan of CoolSculpting, Molly says the fat freezing treatments helped her deal with leftover belly fat after two pregnancies. “There was no downtime. It’s perfect for busy moms!” Molly was quoted as saying in an interview with Vanity Fair.

In fact, Molly has been quoted as saying “I’m thinner now than I was when I was modeling.” No wonder she looks so great on NBS’s drama “Vegas”!

Even Miss USA Has Had CoolSculpting!

Ali Landry – actress, model, and Miss USA 1996 – turned 44 years old this year, too. And she looks amazing! After admitting that she was tired of “always wearing Spanx to suck in her pooch”, she underwent an hour-long CoolSculpting treatment on behalf of E! News.

Ms. Landry targeted her belly fat with a single CoolSculpting treatment and has exclaimed that: “Two months later … I can see my waist again!”
