We’ve all heard the story that somewhere in the timeline of Coca Cola, they decided that their soda bottle would have the curvaceous shape of a woman. From neck to legs it would resemble what largely separates men from women.

What a compliment that someone believed the female shape to be so significant and satisfying that they would pay homage to it by designing their entire product around it.

As a woman, in the society we are in, it sometimes feels like curves aren’t appreciated. Pursuing the latest diet and exercise regimen, we find ourselves testing the limits of how thin we can get without compromising the figure that inspired the bottle.

Instead of “dwindling” ourselves down through dieting until our curves have disappeared, wouldn’t it be great if there was another way to easily reshape our bodies, yet maintain those “coke bottle” curvaceous curves?

Well, there is a way.

Introducing CoolSculpting® from Guyer Institute.

CoolSculpting® eliminates stubborn fat safely and effectively, without surgery or downtime. This fat reduction treatment is the only FDA-cleared procedure to use controlled cooling to safely target and eliminate diet-and exercise-resistant fat. CoolSculpting® results are proven, noticeable, and lasting, so you’ll look and feel great from every angle.

And, a real advantage of CoolSculpting® is that it works best on those areas of the body that can accentuate that curvaceous figure we seek.

Denise Kaler is certified in CoolSculpting® and has treated hundreds of patients at Guyer over the past year.

“It’s ideal for people that just have those stubborn spots. Maybe it’s the love handles, a muffin top; inner thighs that they just don’t like or maybe they want a little inner thigh gap, the new trendy thing,” said Kaler.

How does it work, you ask?

By delivering precisely controlled cooling to these targeted areas, CoolSculpting® freezes the fat cells underneath the skin. The treated fat cells are frozen and then die. Over time, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells, leaving a more sculpted you.

It’s truly a balanced, sensible way to reshape your body.

Just as the shape of the coke bottle has remained attractive for over a hundred years, CoolSculpting® can help you achieve that timeless, curvaceous figure you desire.

Let’s face it…

If VANITY was a movie that charged admission, we would all willingly purchase a ticket.

The simple truth is, we all desire to feel good about ourselves and want others to perceive us favorably.

Oh, we may not show it on the same level as narcissistic Hollywood celebrities- (remember Gloria Swanson’s ‘Norma Desmond’ character’s famous line from the movie SUNSET BOULEVARD – “I am big, it’s just the movies that got small”)?

But vanity plays out in many ways.

When we shop for clothes, we may try to fit into clothes marked the same size as we wore years before. Clothing companies know this and use “vanity sizing,” the labeling of clothes with sizes smaller than the actual cut of the items.

For men, those size 34 slacks might really be closer to size 36 or even bigger.

Women have to cope with an even greater variability in sizes – the same woman might wear a size 4 in one brand and a size 10 in another, according to Stephanie Clifford of the New York Times.

Clothing companies do this for one reason: they know the downsized labeling make customers feel good.

And that got us to thinking about how good CoolSculpting® can make you feel.

After all, it’s a surgery-free body sculpting treatment that gives you an honest and healthy way to get back into those “college-era” size clothes without having to be part of the clothing companies shenanigans.

This FDA-cleared procedure permanently eliminates unwanted fat from your body. It’s not a fad; the results are real and the fat is gone for good.

Denise Kaler, certified technician in CoolSculpting® procedures, says the process is uniquely suited for those fatty areas resistant to diet and exercise:

“It’s ideal for people that just have those stubborn spots. Maybe it’s the love handles, a muffin top; inner thighs that they just don’t like”.

CoolSculpting® actually freezes and kills unwanted fat in those areas most critical to achieving a size-slimming, good fit. Then, the dead fat cells are naturally eliminated from your body. The result is a noticeable, natural-looking reduction of fat in treated areas.

So, don’t fall prey to the “vanity-sizing” smoke and mirror games of the clothing companies. Call us today for the real and lasting image you deserve.

While we’ve all heard the expression “You are what you eat”, fashion divas would also add “You are what you wear!”

While the message has been presented in many ways through the years, its meaning is unmistakable and always the same – The clothes you wear and the way you groom yourself will change the way other people treat you. Your appearance will transmit that message to their subconscious minds – are you like them? Are you different? That message will determine whether they listen to you or ignore you, trust or distrust you.

We think Anna Wintour; editor-in-chief of Vogue and one of the most important figures in the fashion world said it best:

“If you can’t be better than your competition, just dress better.”

So, how does all this relate to CoolSculpting®, you may be asking. “Can CoolSculpting® help me dress better?”

The answer is simple. We all feel better when we wear the clothes that make us look our best. But, unwanted fat may be preventing us from wearing those eye-catching outfits.

That’s where CoolSculpting® can help.

Ideal for freezing and killing the fat cells in those stubborn areas like “muffin tops” or thighs, CoolSculpting® lets you once again wear those lovely, but long-neglected clothes and once again look like a million dollars.

The reality is, it’s not necessary to buy trendy, expensive designer wear in order to look great – It’s simply a matter of looking great in the clothes you have. And, when you know you look good, you’re going to give off an air of confidence others will notice.

That’s the psychology of dressing well.

CoolSculpting® is a body-contouring treatment that helps you get back into the clothes you want. It is the only non-surgical way to eliminate unwanted fat using a patented, cold technology. Most patients start to see results as early as three weeks following treatment and experience the most dramatic results over the next 1-3 months.

The amazing part about all this is, when you look better, you feel better.

The fashion maven (Anna Wintour) herself might sum it up this way – CoolSculpting® can be a cool accessory to any great wardrobe ensemble!

If you’ve ever watched Cinderella (and who hasn’t?), there’s a subtle, but basic, fashion statement being played out. And it’s this – FIT is the most important aspect of your clothing.

Think about it. Her sisters dressed her in rags while they wore finery, but somehow Cinderella managed to look the most beautiful. Why? Because the FIT was perfect!

Let’s face it; no matter your size, the FIT of your clothes makes a difference in the way you look and feel about yourself. And that’s where CoolSculpting® can help!

At Guyer Institute, this non-surgical body-sculpting alternative to liposuction targets unwanted fat that is resistant to diet and exercise. It’s a revolutionary technology that can freeze the fat away from those difficult areas of the abdomen and thighs, the very areas that prevent you from having that perfect-fitting image you desire for yourself.

Okay, we get it…Cinderella may never have been plagued by a persistent ‘muffin top’ or fatty inner thighs, but a lot of us mere mortals are! And our own Denise Kaler and Christina “Cricket” Hemp, both certified in CoolSculpting®, have seen the benefits experienced by hundreds of patients over the past few years.

“It’s ideal for people that just have those stubborn spots and are looking to target unwanted fat that is resistant to diet and exercise.”

You will like what you see. In the weeks and months following your procedure, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells. Once the treated fat cells are gone, they’re gone for good.

Okay, we can’t guarantee you’ll look as good as Cinderella after a single CoolSculpting® treatment. But, we’re confident you WILL notice an improvement in how well your clothes FIT.

You’re probably familiar with a very famous quote from Henry Ford about his early cars: “They can have it in any color they like as long as it’s black.”

Unless you happen to have a monopoly, that attitude would never fly with consumers today. With a mantra of “WIIFM” (what’s in it for me!), today’s buyers have a greater desire to know the benefit before making the purchase.

And such is the case with CoolSculpting®.

When patients first ask us about this revolutionary body-contouring procedure, the real question they want answered is…

“WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS I CAN EXPECT FROM COOLSCULPTING®?”

So, let’s talk benefits:

• Expect natural-looking results

Everyone wants to know “How will I look after a treatment?”

After one session, the treated area will, over the course of the next six months, come to appear smoother and more toned.

The majority of the frozen fat cells will naturally work their way out of your body in the first two months, but many see some fat reduction after just four weeks!

Following CoolSculpting®, patients typically see a 25% reduction in the treated area, with results as early as 3 weeks. The most dramatic results are typically seen 12 weeks after treatment.

Many patients are satisfied after one treatment. However, during your consultation, we can discuss a treatment plan that will meet your specific treatment needs.

• The CoolSculpting® procedure is FDA-cleared.

CoolSculpting® uses controlled cooling to target and freeze away fat cells. Developed by scientists at the Wellman Center for Photomedicine at Massachusetts General Hospital, it’s the only FDA-cleared fat freezing technology. The treatment is gentle and safe for your body – but tough on stubborn fat.

• It’s convenient and comfortable

Each area treated requires a 60-minute application. During the minimally invasive procedure (that means no cutting or incisions) you can read, watch our large screen TV, get work done – or even sleep!

• Your treatment will be done by Qualified Professionals

As with any medical procedure, it’s important to have your procedure done by trained, certified professionals. Denise Kaler is certified in CoolSculpting® and has treated hundreds of patients over the past year. The Guyer Institute is a certified CoolSculpting® practice as well.

In fact, all our people have been through advanced training protocols to ensure the best possible results. And, they are ready to share their observations of the amazing results they’ve experienced first-hand.

In summary, CoolSculpting® is not a fad. Results are real and the fat is gone for good.

Now, that’s a benefit even Henry Ford would like!

History is full of examples of simple observations that led to great inventions. Take, for example, Benjamin Franklin’s kite-flying escapade using a key. He observed that lightening is a form of electricity. That observation paved the way for the invention of the lightning rod and, later, of batteries.

Then, of course, there’s the ‘popsicle effect’ observation that led to the invention of CoolSculpting®, the most effective, non-invasive fat reduction procedure available today.

“What’s that”, you say? Popsicle effect?

It’s true. Renowned Harvard University scientists, Dieter Manstein, MD and R. Rox Anderson, MD, observed that some children got dimples due to eating popsicles.

But, what was causing the dimples?

Believe it or not, it was the popsicles! When held against the inside of the cheek for an extended time, they lowered the temperature in the immediate area enough to actually impair fat metabolism and cause disruption (lysis) of the fat cells.

This caused the fat cells to actually freeze and die. The dead cells were metabolized by the body for fuel, leaving a cheek with reduced fat content and a dimple.

The “POPSICLE” effect observation led the two doctors to begin experimenting on animals. This ultimately led to the first cryolipolysis medical devise cleared by the FDA in 2010. CoolSculpting® actually freezes the fat off!

How cool is THAT?

If you’ve ever sought help in losing some unwanted fat, you know how frustrating it can be. There seems to be an endless array of diet books, exercise regimens and equipment, diet supplements, surgical procedures- all promising the dream of an Adonis-like physique.

Even if you try these methods and achieve results, you often find yourself left with disappointing, stubborn excess fat. It could be the ‘love handles’ or ‘muffin tops’ in the stomach area, or those inner thighs where impenetrable fat refuses to go away despite herculean effort.

CoolSculpting® is designed to freeze the fat away in these troubled areas.

CoolSculpting® is uniquely suited for fine-tuning, sculpting, and reduction of fatty areas around the waist, thighs, hips, and vulnerable areas that generally are unresponsive to exercise and diet.

So, enjoy that Popsicle! Then, call us to schedule your CoolSculpting® treatment.

Can a 21st century, FDA-cleared procedure be best described as “Ice Age” in origin? Now there’s an interesting question: if anthropologists tell us there were few, if any, “obese” cavemen, is it possible our early ancestors knew something we don’t?

In fact, we’re referring to the “coolest”, most innovative, non-surgical way to lose annoying bumps and bulges of stubborn fat. Known as CoolSculpting® (cryolipolysis), this revolutionary technology targets and freezes unwanted fat, then eliminates it naturally eliminated from the body.

CoolSculpting® has been available for only five years. But, in that short time, this fat reduction procedure has proven itself to be an effective technique for treating stubborn fatty spots with results that can be visibly dramatic.

This post is the first in a series related to information about this exciting, new quick-fix fat reduction treatment that is sweeping the country.

The first question anyone asks, when hearing about CoolSculpting® for the first time, is “What, exactly, is it”?

CoolSculpting® is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive fat reduction treatment, a cheaper and quicker way to unwanted fat, that’s resistant to diet and exercise. When compared to liposuction and other invasive procedures. With CoolSculpting® there’s no downtime, no after-care or follow-up, no incisions, no needles, no cutting of any kind. You return to your daily life immediately following a treatment.

What, exactly, should you expect? A special applicator is placed on the treatment area, chilling the skin and, over time, freezing and killing the fat cells in that area.

Treatment areas of the body vary. For men, this could mean those ‘love handles’ in the stomach area. For ladies, that might mean the ‘muffin top’. Or, perhaps it’s the inner thighs where stubborn fat is preventing you from having the trim look you would like.

Where does all that “frozen fat” go when it dies? After being crystallized by CoolSculpting®, those fat cells are eliminated naturally by the body over the four to six months following treatment, with the most dramatic results typically apparent 12 weeks after treatment.

The end result? A more sculpted you.

So, what’s the skinny on CoolSculpting®? Simply put, it is an FDA-cleared, non-surgical fat reduction treatment option that eliminates stubborn fat otherwise resistant to diet and exercise.

And, unlike the cavemen’s Ice Age procedures, CoolSculpting®’s results are lasting!
