CoolTone™ by CoolSculpting®
You work out regularly and have a healthy diet, but you can’t seem to get the muscle tone you desire. Many people are familiar with this issue. CoolTone™ can help you tone and strengthen muscles in the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks, which are hard to target with traditional exercises.

No downtime
More effective than exercise aloneIs It Safe?

Ideal Candidates
Candidates for CoolTone™ treatments maintain a healthy lifestyle but have trouble achieving ideal muscle tone in the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks. Patients should be in good general health and at or close to their ideal weight.
How It Works
CoolTone™ uses Magnetic Muscle Stimulation technology to induce involuntary muscle contractions that are stronger and utilize more muscle fibers than the contractions you can achieve with traditional exercises.
The CoolTone™ applicator will be placed on the target site. Once the machine is turned on, you will feel the muscles in the treatment area contract and release for 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the treatment area. The process is comfortable and does not require anesthesia or special preparation.
Recovery and Results
There is no downtime from a CoolTone™ session. However, Your muscles may feel slightly sore for a few days afterward, similar to the feeling you get after an intense workout. The treated muscles will begin to feel stronger and firmer and will look more toned after a series of treatments.
Because it takes time for muscle fibers to build, you may begin to see initial results in about two weeks. The effects of your treatment will then continue to improve. Most patients require a series of four to six treatments to achieve optimal results. Semi-regular treatments are suggested to maintain results. CoolTone™ can also be combined with CoolSculpting® for comprehensive body contouring.
