TINA THOMAS-BASSETT GETS BEACH BODY READY WITH DR. CLAIRE OLIVER
Whilst looking at a proof of Air Aesthetics’ latest advert, I emailed Dr Claire Oliver back to say, “Oh I would love a beach body like the model in the image! If you need a model I'm available”. Moments later a reply came back, “You’re welcome to meet Dr Oliver for a complimentary consultation Tina, to assess your suitability”.
A few days later I was sitting in consultation with Dr Claire Oliver in her Aesthetics clinic in Henley-in-Arden. Claire has a wonderful way with clients and explained in great detail the science behind CoolSculpting, how the treatment works and happily showing me areas where she herself has been treated. After which she assessed my suitability for the treatment, as it isn't suitable for everyone. Dr Oliver's assessment of my medical history and squidgy tummy area made me an ideal candidate. No matter how hard I worked out in the gym, my stubborn stomach area just didn't respond to my hard work!
A week later I was back in the capable hands of the good doctor and experiencing CoolSculpting for myself. The treatment isn't painful, more peculiar in sensation. Powerful suction draws your targeted fat between the cooling plates, a sensation that takes only minutes to get used to. I was soon tackling my emails and inbox and responding to messages, and the hour passed quickly. Claire and her team ensure you are relaxed and settled throughout with water, teas and snacks, as well as films being offered to while away the time.

Afterwards, my tummy felt numb, but not at all sore, a feeling that continued, albeit less over time, as my fat cells were gradually expelled. I returned to work the very next day, which is true to Claire’s words that there is ‘no downtime compared with other fat reducing treatments’. Despite it only being two weeks since my treatment, I'm sure I can see results already; Claire explained that you can expect to see the full results in 90 days.
A WEEK LATER I WAS BACK IN THE CAPABLE HANDS OF THE GOOD DOCTOR AND EXPERIENCING THE
COOLSCULPTING FOR MYSELF. THE TREATMENT ISN'T PAINFUL, MORE PECULIAR IN SENSATION

Before CoolSculpting treatment with Dr Claire Oliver. CRYOLIPOLYSIS... HOW DOES THE
TREATMENT REMOVE THE FAT CELLS? By the time we reach adolescence, the body has laid down all the fat cells it will have as an adult. So when you put on weight your fat cells are swelling rather than multiplying. Once frozen, the fat cells undergo apoptosis i.e. they are destroyed and they do not re-grow.Zeltiq CoolSculpting® is an FDA approved technology that is completely non-invasive and is clinically proven to remove fat permanently such as love handles, post-pregnancy paunch, muffin top, upper arms and inner
thighs.CoolSculpting® treatment developed by Harvard scientists and FDA approved is precisely controlled cooling to remove fat by a process called Cryolipolysis. The fat cells are then naturally absorbed and removed by the body without injury to the skin or other tissue that results from more invasive procedures such as liposuction. A single one hour treatment can achieve between 20-40% fat reduction. Results are visible from three weeks onwards with the most dramatic results showing at four months.
“I intend to update you with my progress on fighting those fat cells, but in the meantime, here's what you can expect to experience after CoolSculpting and points to consider”...
AFTERCARE • You may resume normal activities following the procedure, but a period of rest is recommended immediately afterwards.
• Tissue may look or feel stiff immediately after the procedure. This is normal and dissipates within a few hours.
• The treated area will be reddened for approximately an hour after the applicator is removed.
