Working out regularly, but still have problem areas?
Are you following an exercise program, but still have areas that just won't slim down? “Dawn,” a 36-year-old physician assistant, was working out seven days a week—but couldn't get rid of some stubborn fat on her hips and thighs.
“I'm extremely athletic,” she says. “I do cardio, kickboxing, weightlifting, Pilates and running. I don't have a lot of body mass, so I needed just a subtle sculpt.” When Dawn heard that Dr. Parungao now offers Cool Lipo, she came in for a consulation.
‘I needed subtle sculpting’
Because she is fairly lean, Dawn realized that the quantity of fat she needed removed was small. “Dr. Parungao had to be conservative with me because with someone who's already working out and fairly lean, you don't want to get ‘tracking’ or ‘rippling’ by working too close to the skin's surface,” she explains.
“With Cool Lipo, the laser melts the fat and then gently heats the underside of the skin to tighten the collagen,” Dr. Parungao explains.
Cool Lipo offers advantages
over traditional liposuction
  • “Cool Lipo allows me to fine-tune,” Dr. Parungao explains. “It uses a laser to literally melt the fat, rather than breaking it up into smaller pieces as in traditional liposuction.

  • “With Cool Lipo, I use a smaller cannula (a pen-like instrument) to suction out the fat,” he says. “The Cool Lipo cannula is just 2 millimeters wide (about the width of the head of a pencil).

  • “The 2-millimeter cannula makes it easier for me to work in a small space,” says Dr. Parungao.

Less bruising, quicker recovery with Cool Lipo
“Traditional liposuction uses a larger cannula with a sharp side that shears the fat,” Dr. Parungao explains. “During traditional liposuction, I have to move the cannula back and forth, like slicing ham, to break up the fat before it can be suctioned out. Not surprisingly, this can result in considerable bruising for the patient.
“Because Cool Lipo melts the fat, there is considerably less bruising and swelling—and thus a quicker recovery—than with traditional liposuction,” says Dr. Parungao. “And Cool Lipo's skin-tightening effect helps avoid the loose-skin look that can sometimes result from traditional liposuction.”
‘It was quick and easy—and I love the results!’
Dawn made a fast recovery after Cool Lipo and is very pleased with her new look. “I had barely any bruising, and just a bit of soreness and swelling,” she says. “Now I'm very happy with the contour changes in my hips and thighs.”

Cool Lipo offers several advantages over traditional liposuction:

  • Gently melts unwanted fat

  • Tightens the skin

  • Results in less bruising,
    swelling and downtime

  • Can be done under local anesthesia right in Dr. Parungao's office

Ask Dr. Parungao
Are there specific body parts that are
more amenable to Cool Lipo than traditional liposuction?
Yes. Cool Lipo is most useful for gently removing excess fat in fibrous areas of the body, such as “saddlebags” at the top of the thighs, as well as the calves, ankles, love handles and male breasts. These areas have more connective tissue, which makes it more difficult to remove excess fat using traditional liposuction.
Have a question? Ask Dr. Parungao.
