GIVE YOURSELF AN
EARLY GIFT THIS YEAR
Now is the Time for CoolSculpting
Patients treated with CoolSculpting
typically see a 20%-25% reduction of
stubborn fat. The technology features
specific applicators for areas including
upper arms, bra fat, belly fat, outer
thighs, inner thighs and love handles. A
specialized mini-applicator treats double
chins, which is rapidly becoming one of
the most popular procedures. Treatment
takes about 35 minutes, and patients can
watch movies, work on their laptop, and
even enjoy a meal during the application.
My results from treating my double chin
were extraordinary – they even made me
an official neck model.
People interested in CoolSculpting
need to understand that outcomes are not
immediate. Patients see optimal results
within 60-90 days. Therefore, if you want to reduce fat in the new
year without the gym membership, start your treatment plan now.
To assist patients with their body transformations, PureLife
Medi-Spa offers a complimentary weight loss program in
combination with the purchase of CoolSculpting. An eightweek
Detox B12 Program can be started immediately to help
patients reach their goals. PureLife Medi-Spa has the ability to treat
multiple areas simultaneously with four CoolSculpting devices.
This is a time-saving benefit to patients with busy schedules.
If you are ready to learn the ways that CoolSculpting can help
you get your body back without any hassle, we can help. This
treatment also makes the perfect gift for the holidays.
Call (727) 595-3400 or visit purelifemedispa.com today to schedule
a complimentary CoolSculpting consultation. 9

Say hello to a brand new you in 2020.
If you are looking at the calendar
and thinking how can I quickly get
in shape for the new year, I have a
solution for you. Time isn’t running out,
time is on your side...with CoolSculpting.
Like most of you, I am reminded every
year that New Year’s resolutions just
never work out. The good news? You
don’t have to worry. There is an easy
solution to safely and effectively spot
reduce fat on your body without special
diets and exercise. The best results are
seen in 60-90 days, so if you want to
start the new year off without stubborn
fat, you should consider scheduling an
appointment now.
CoolSculpting is holding steady as
the premier body sculpting procedure that is a noninvasive
alternative to liposuction. Developed by Harvard University
scientists, it is FDA-cleared, and deemed safe and effective with a
95% satisfaction rate for patients. Not to mention, pharmaceutical
giant Allergen purchased the technology for 2.48 billion dollars
in 2017. Most people ask, does it really work?
Through the process of Cryolipolysis, CoolSculpting technology
crystallizes lipids in fat cells. This crystallization of lipids causes
the slow collapse of the fat cells and results in cell death, called
cellular apoptosis. It’s important to note that CoolSculpting only
targets the fat cells in the superficial fat layer close to the skin.
It does not affect other tissues in the treated area. The human
body’s lymphatic system then gradually eliminates the dead cells
through natural processes, including sweating and urination. If
you can squeeze it, we can freeze it.
CoolSculpting requires no needles, no surgery and virtually no
downtime. In most cases, patients return to their normal routines
the following day. From working in the office, to working out
at the gym, CoolSculpting patients have few restrictions. The
treated area may feel a bit numb for several days, but this is
mild and improves with time.
