58-year-old American Undergoes Fat Reduction Procedure Post-Cancer Battle

The patient undergoes Cool Sculpting to achieve dramatic body transformation

United Arab Emirates, Dubai, 30 July 2018, (AETOSWire) : A 58-year-old American woman may have survived two different forms of cancer, but the stubborn fat on her body just wouldn’t wade off. However, determined to get rid of troubled areas on her body, she opted for CosmeSurge’s Cool Sculpting – a fat freezing process to stride off the unwanted fat.

There’s an emotional toll that a cancer patient faces when fighting for her life, but that’s just one part of the whole journey. Cancer, and it’s various forms of treatment, may have a strong impact on a person’s physical stature as well. Chemotherapy and steroids are two of the more well-known treatments of cancer, however, they also have appearance-altering side effects, and to be able to feel good about herself after her intense treatment, the patient choose Cool Sculpting to regain her confidence back.  According to cancer.net, some of the side effects include:

• Intense food cravings
• Increase in appetite
• An increase in fatty tissue
• A noticeable increase in weight

Imagine enduring the fight of a lifetime and, at the end of it, you’re physically unrecognizeable. It shouldn’t be that way, and it doesn’t have to be. Cool Sculpting is a safe non-invasive body contouring fat reduction procedure, which freezes the fat in the area to be treated. When the fat cells are frozen it causes them to die and be removed from the body as waste. This procedure is seen as more effective than other non-invasive fat reduction treatments and has fewer risks and complication than surgical treatments like liposuction. The entire procedure is about 35 minutes to an hour, and generally takes 8-10 weeks for the results to show.

“We all have certain areas on our body that we wish we could tone up. When the cancer patient visited us for the first time, she was determined to feel good about herself, in spite of going through vigorous chemotherapy to treat her cancer. As such, we decided to perform Cool Sculpting. It was a total body transformation process for her, which involved treating her abdomen, back, arms, and legs. The results were dramatically positive, leaving her thrilled,” said, Dr Lana Kashlan, Consultant Dermatologist at CosmeSurge.

Dr Kashlan explains that Cool Sculpting is not a weight loss treatment. It is a fat reduction process, and is designed for people who live active lifestyles, experience minimal weight fluctuations and are looking to target certain areas of the body that are resistant to exercise and healthy eating habits.

“One important reason that most people in the UAE opt for Cool Sculpting is that it is a significantly safer procedure as compared to other fat reduction treatments. It is non-invasive as it doesn’t make use of needles, cuts or anaesthesia. In addition, there is no downtime or discomfort that patients have to experience with this procedure,” concluded Dr Kashlan.
