Dr. Echavez is proud to be one of the first providers to offer CoolTone in San Francisco. This revolutionary technology can build muscle and minimize the appearance of fat in the treatment area. This non-surgical device has 50% more power than leading competitors and can help tone the abdomen, buttocks, thighs and more while being completely non-invasive.
CoolTone uses Magnetic Muscle Stimulation (MMS) technology to strengthen, tone, and firm the muscles of the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs.
CoolTone’s powerful MMS technology penetrates below the fat layer to strengthen and tone muscle. The state-of-the-art system features liquid-cooled applicators. And as part of Allergan’s trusted portfolio of products, you will be eligible to earn Brilliant Distinctions® rewards.
Areas of treatment CoolTone is designed to target three primary muscle groups: the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs. These areas respond well to MMS, and clients often seek CoolTone to tone, strengthen and improve muscle in abs, glutes, and thighs.
CoolTone™ vs CoolSculpting®: How they work together In the cosmetic industry, there are all kinds of new non-surgical techniques and technologies hitting the market, each of which are designed to help give you better results with less downtime. Two different technologies you may have heard of are CoolTone™ and CoolSculpting®. It’s easy to get these two confused since they are produced by the same company, but the technologies are different and each provides you with varying benefits. For some, you may be looking at CoolTone™ vs CoolSculpting® to determine which is right for you to achieve your desired results. However, for others, it may be possible to take advantage of both technologies to achieve those desired results. The non-surgical experts here at The Skin Center By CPS are here to help you not only understand the difference between CoolTone™ vs CoolSculpting® but also determine the best course of action to help you reach your desired outcome.
CoolTone Results The Cooltone™ device has 50% more magnetic intensity than the leading competitor, measured in Tesla at the point of contact. Results are typically seen within 4-8 treatments, depending on desired outcome. Patients can start to see results as soon as three weeks following treatment, with the most dramatic results occurring over a period of two to four months. Cooltone™ is not intended as a weight-reduction program for overweight individuals.
Candidates for the Treatment The best candidates for the CoolTone™ procedure are people near their ideal body weight who eat well and exercise regularly and have areas like abdomen, buttocks, and thighs that have not responded to a healthy lifestyle and not considering a surgical procedure.
Dr. Echavez will help tailor an individual treatment plan in order to reach your specific goals. Depending on expectations and existing levels of muscle definition, You may be recommended either 4 to 6 treatment sessions with additional maintenance treatments in the future.
Patients describe the beginning of the treatment as warm, intense muscle contractions that dissipates after the first few minutes of treatment.
Typical side effects following the procedure include redness, swelling, tingling, mild muscle pain or cramping. While not everyone experiences these side effects, we can provide you with prescription options to help with discomfort.
Change may be noticeable as early as three weeks after your treatment, the most dramatic results happening after a three-month period of time.
CoolTone™ is a completely non-surgical treatment, so patients typically return to all normal activities immediately.
After seeing results, many people obtain a healthier lifestyle. However if you do gain weight, or discontinue your current activity, it can results in muscle decrease.
Emsculpt is electronic muscle stimulation, while CoolTone is electromagnetic muscle stimulation, which bypasses the sensory nerves enabling patients to tolerate the high intensity contractions more comfortably, unlike it’s competitor.
A free consultation with Dr. Echavez will help determine the number of treatments needed for desired result. Pricing is per treatment area, and is based on the number of treatments required.
The CoolTone™ procedure is FDA-cleared for toning, firming, and strengthening the muscles on the buttocks, thighs, and abdomen.
Varying based on treatment area, CoolTone™ treatments take less than 1 hour per area.
I’ve been going to Dr. Echavez for the past 20 or so years and I have to say that I wouldn’t go anywhere else. I’ve had multiple procedures done at his office. From the removal of broken capillaries, to the removal of moles, tags etc, to BOTOX and fillers. He’s always professional, never rushed and thoroughly precise. He has an excellent bedside manner and is painless both in his procedures and on the pocketbook. I highly recommend his services and I couldn’t be happier with the results we’ve achieved.
I have been seeing Dr Echavez for over 2.5 years ever since I saw him back in April 2014 when he (perfectly) fixed a Belotero job that a SF dermatologist had placed incorrectly. He is very talented with his work and also very kind. His office assistant Karla is also great. They never fail to call after any visit and they genuinely care about your results, pocketbook, appearance and feelings. I highly recommend.
