Even the healthiest lifestyle can leave you wanting more in terms of fat loss and muscle gain. Do you want to contour your body and increase muscle tone? CoolTone is a safe and non-invasive treatment that strengthens the muscles in the treatment area.
When you’re ready to tone your figure, you can turn to the professionals at Chetco Medical and Aesthetics in Brookings, OR, for more information about your treatment options. We have seen great results using CoolTone™, and it may be just what you have been looking for to achieve your goals for your body.
What Is CoolTone?
CoolTone is a treatment that requires no surgery to build and tone muscle. The treatment is cleared by the FDA and targets the muscle under the fat and skin safely. The results are different from other body sculpting technologies like CoolSculpting®. Most other sculpting technology only removes fat without building and toning muscle, but CoolTone stimulates the muscles in the treatment area.
How Does It Work?
CoolTone uses Magnetic Muscle Stimulation technology to cause the muscles in the target area to contract thousands of times in a quick treatment session. Our professional uses a special device to stimulate the area, resulting in more toned and strengthened muscles in each session. You may need more than one session to reach your desired results, and results vary from patient to patient. The treatment is conducted in the comfort of our office, and you should be able to get back to your normal routine or work right after the treatment.
What Can CoolTone Improve?
Muscle Definition and Firmness
Targeted muscle stimulation activates deep muscle fibers that are difficult to engage with standard workouts. Patients who struggle to build definition through exercise alone can benefit from these treatments.
Core Strength
A strong core supports overall stability, improves posture, and reduces strain on the lower back. The contractions stimulated by CoolTone activate the deep abdominal muscles responsible for core strength. This activation can improve spinal alignment and enhance balance, making daily activities like bending, lifting, and standing for long periods feel easier. Patients who experience weakness in their midsection, whether from aging, inactivity, or past injuries, may find this treatment beneficial in reinforcing core stability.
Muscle Tone Maintenance for Older Patients
Age-related muscle loss, known as sarcopenia, can affect strength, mobility, and overall physical function. Patients looking to maintain muscle tone as they age often find that traditional strength training becomes more challenging due to joint discomfort, decreased endurance, or limited flexibility. This treatment can help sustain muscle mass and strength without the impact of high-intensity workouts. Stronger muscles also provide better joint support, reducing the risk of falls and improving posture.
Athletic Performance
Well-conditioned muscles contribute to better endurance, coordination, and power during physical activity. By strengthening muscle fibers in key areas, this treatment can help with explosive movements, sustained stamina, and post-workout recovery. The stimulation provided also promotes neuromuscular adaptation, which can enhance movement precision and control.
Post-Pregnancy Recovery
Pregnancy can weaken the abdominal muscles, particularly the rectus abdominis, which may separate (called diastasis recti) during childbirth. Strengthening these muscles without excessive strain can be challenging, but focused muscle stimulation helps re-engage and rebuild core strength. This can be useful for patients experiencing a weakened midsection, pelvic instability, or difficulty regaining core control postpartum.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
The treatment is cleared by the FDA to treat three key areas of the body where many individuals struggle to get results.
- Abs: It can be difficult to get tight and flat abs through traditional methods. With this innovative toning treatment, we may reveal your abs while strengthening and building muscle to get the abdomen you desire.
- Thighs: The thighs can be an area that is difficult to tone with proper diet and exercise. We can treat the thighs using this amazing treatment.
- Buttocks: In some cases, CoolTone can be used to provide results similar to a butt lift with no surgery. This means no set downtime or healing time and no risks that come with invasive procedures. After a series of treatment sessions, you could have tight and firm buttocks.
Why Choose CoolTone?
Treatments Are Non-Invasive
Muscle stimulation is achieved without incisions, anesthesia, or downtime. The device uses electromagnetic energy to penetrate through the skin and fat layers and directly targets muscle fibers. It is suitable for patients looking to enhance muscle tone without undergoing surgery.
Treatments Are Fast and Pain-Free
Each session lasts about 30 minutes. The sensation feels like strong muscle contractions, similar to an intense workout, but without strain or discomfort. There’s no need for numbing agents, and most patients tolerate the treatment well without modifications. After the session, muscle fatigue may be noticeable, similar to how muscles feel post-exercise, but patients can immediately return to normal activities without restrictions.
Treatments Can Complement Other Body Contouring Methods
CoolTone can be combined with fat reduction treatments to enhance results. While muscle stimulation focuses on strengthening and firming, procedures like CoolSculpting target fat cells in the same areas. For those already at their goal weight but looking for more muscle definition, this treatment can provide additional refinement beyond what fat reduction alone can achieve.
What to Expect During Your First CoolTone Session
During your treatment, we will assess the target areas to determine the appropriate settings for muscle stimulation. We place the applicators on the skin, where they deliver the electromagnetic pulses that trigger rapid muscle contractions. The intensity starts at a lower setting and gradually increases based on comfort and response. The treatment cycles through different contraction patterns to engage the muscles in a way that mimics strength training. Patients can relax during the treatment, and there is no downtime.
FAQs About CoolTone
How Safe Is the Treatment?
This treatment is a safe way to build toned and strong muscles. The treatment is FDA-cleared to treat multiple areas and could help you avoid anesthesia, liposuction, invasive procedures, and surgery.
How Many CoolTone Sessions Will I Need?
Most patients start with two or more sessions spaced over two weeks to build an initial foundation of muscle tone. The number of sessions can vary depending on muscle strength, fitness level, and treatment goals. Some patients choose additional sessions for further muscle definition.
How Can I Maintain My CoolTone Results?
CoolTone results can be maintained with regular strength training, a balanced diet, and periodic follow-up treatments. Without continued stimulation, muscles may gradually lose tone, similar to what happens after pausing an exercise routine. Many patients schedule monthly or quarterly maintenance sessions to keep muscles engaged and defined.
Is CoolTone the Same as CoolSculpting?
Both treatments are non-invasive but serve different purposes. CoolTone strengthens and firms muscles using electromagnetic stimulation, while CoolSculpting reduces fat by freezing and eliminating fat cells. Some patients choose to combine both treatments for enhanced definition, especially in the abdomen, thighs, or buttocks.
How Long Does It Take to See Results From CoolTone?
Muscle stimulation begins immediately, but visible changes usually develop over a few weeks as muscles adapt and strengthen. Full results can usually be seen several weeks after completing the full treatment plan.
Is CoolTone a Weight Loss Solution?
This treatment focuses on muscle definition and strength rather than fat reduction. It does not replace weight loss methods or significantly impact overall body weight. Patients at or near their ideal weight are the best candidates.
Can CoolTone Replace a Workout?
While muscle stimulation engages deep muscle fibers, it does not replace traditional exercise. Strength training and cardiovascular activity support overall fitness, endurance, and metabolic health. Patients who exercise regularly may see more pronounced benefits since CoolTone can complement their existing workout routine.
