FDA-approved for skin cooling associated with dermatological procedures, Zeltiq is pending approval for use as a fat reduction device and has been proven to reduce fat cells in Canada and Europe.
Melting fat away isn’t the only way to reduce fat cells; a new solution literally can chill your fat away. Dr. Anne Riordan from Wildwood Dermatology continues to offer the very best in dermatological procedures and techniques by performing the first Zeltiq procedure in the St. Louis area. FDA approved for cooling the skin for dermatological procedures, Zeltiq has an FDA-pending application for non-invasive fat layer reduction. And Dr. Riordan is the only dermatologist in the area with the Zeltiq System.  Zeltiq CoolSculpting Results, Front “Unwanted love handles, stomach pooches and back fat can be the hardest areas to target with diet and exercise,” said Dr. Riordan. “The CoolSculpting procedure from Zeltiq targets fat cells in these areas and uses advanced cooling to eliminate these cells without doing any harm to the surrounding areas. The cells are gradually eliminated from the body and as a result, these areas can look and feel more toned. CoolSculpting is completed without needles or incisions and has virtually no recovery time. With the first Zeltiq System in the area, Wildwood Dermatology is excited to start providing this innovative service to our patients.” During a CoolSculpting procedure, a non-invasive applicator is applied to the skin and targets specific areas with controlled, cooled temperature. Because these cells are susceptible to cool temperatures, these cells can break down and be metabolized by the body. The procedure is non-invasive and most patients can resume their normal daily activities immediately.  Zeltiq CoolSculpting Results, Side “Fat cells are more vulnerable to cold temperatures than other cells such as skin cells. That is how CoolSculpting can specifically target these cells which can then be metabolized by the body. A CoolSculpting procedure can reduce the fat layer by 20 to 40% and the process can result in a reduction in fat cells over a two to four month period depending on the patient. We invite anyone who is interested in the procedure to give our office a call to set up a informational appointment about whether to procedure is right for you,” said Dr. Riordan.
