What is it?

The CoolTone® procedure is a body contouring procedure that applies noninvasive electromagnetic stimulation onto the muscles. The procedure involves repeatedly contracting muscle tissues by passing electric currents through applicators that are in contact with the specific body area. The CoolTone® procedure is FDA- cleared for improving abdominal tone, strengthening the abdominal muscles, and development for firmer abdomen. Also, the CoolTone® procedure strengthens, tones, and firms the buttocks and thighs.

What does it do?

The CoolTone® noninvasive body contouring treatment uses magnetic muscle stimulation to strengthen, tone, and firm the muscles of the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs. The technology penetrates below the fat layer to strengthen and tone muscles in the treated area. Results can vary from person to person.

CoolTone Before After

What does it feel like?

Our team will discuss your individual treatment plan for your needs. A strap covers the applicator, and you may be dressed in a thin layer of clothing. Depending on the selected body area of treatment, one or two applicators may be applied over the targeted area. The electromagnetic stimulation is delivered through the applicator and our team may adjust the intensity of the magnetic muscle stimulation as tolerated by you. During treatment, you will feel a series of involuntary deep muscle contractions over the targeted area that will last for a few seconds followed by a period of rest.

What will it accomplish?

The CoolTone® procedure improves abdominal tone, strengthens the abdominal muscles, and develops firmer abdomen. Also, the CoolTone® procedure strengthens, tones, and firms the buttocks and thighs. Results and patient experience may vary.
