(Updated) Medical CoolSculpting Elite Treatment at Halley Body Slimming Clinic Singapore

I admit I am still seeking for a better body image although I love my body!

Being an advocate for self love, accepting body images and agreeing all shapes and sizes are beautiful in their ways are always encouraged. However, I do seek for a better version of myself because of the fact that I can be leaner and healthier. What my body is experiencing now is the aftermath of my bad lifestyle habits. Indulging in rich diet and not having enough activities to burn those calories are really deadly! Not to mention the aging metabolism I’m having too.

I got to know about the CoolSculpting Fat Reduction Treatment at Halley Body Slimming Clinic 魅丽医学纤体瘦身诊所 when I visited Halley Medical Aesthetics for Juvéderm previously. Located in the same premise at Orchard Gateway, Halley Medical Aesthetics focuses on beauty medical services while Halley Body Slimming Clinic aimed at helping patients attaining body goals through non-invasive body treatments. Medically-proven to be safe and effective, their treatments range from doctor-monitored weight management treatments, fat reduction, body firming, to muscle toning.

I decided to give CoolSculpting Elite at Halley Body Slimming Clinic a try since the fats around my tummy and flanks are persistent, and also after reading many successful reviews on this procedure. This is a great self love I give to myself, besides embarking on a healthier lifestyle such as eating lesser meats & dairy products, as well as doing a 45-mins cardio thrice weekly.

What is CoolSculpting  Elite?

CoolSculpting Elite is a body contouring treatment using cryolipolysis (fat freezing) on stubborn fat without surgery. CoolSculpting Elite freezes and kills fat cells with no downtime and we can proceed with our regular activities right after the procedure. This is also a medical procedure approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treating fats especially when located on the abdomen, flanks, back, inner and outer thighs, upper arms, and buttock

How much does CoolSculpting Elite at Halley Body Slimming Clinic cost?

I was prescribed for 12 CoolSculpting cycles with total treatment cost at $7,920. (price excludes GST)

The cost will depend on your personalized treatment plan, including factors such as the number of areas to be treated, the size of the areas, and the number of sessions.

Who is a good candidate for CoolSculpting Elite?

CoolSculpting Elite works best for people with a body mass index (BMI) of less than 25 and is having at least ⅔ of an inch of pinch-able fats in order to fit into the CoolSculpting Elite’s applicator.

I am a good candidate for CoolSculpting Elite as I am already starting my healthier lifestyle but still has problem areas that are resistant to diet and exercise. If I’m too big, more treatments are needed to see an outcome, which are going to be costly. Anyway you are unable to have CoolSculpting Elite on the areas with wound, scar tissue, or skin condition until they are being resolved.

What happened during the CoolSculpting Elite procedure?

Each CoolSculpting Elite treatment for an area will take 35 to 60 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas being treated. At Halley Body Slimming Clinic, Dr Terence Tan offers QuadSculpting , a fat reduction method using four CoolSculpting Elite devices at the same time to reduce the overall treatment time.

For precise application, Dr. Terence Tan used the CoolSculpting Elite templates to map out the specific areas I am targeting on with marker pens. A protective gel pad is being placed over my skin before applying the applicator to the treatment area. At this point, the treated area has its temperature lowered till -10ºC – the effective temperature to freeze and kill the fat cells.

When the treatment time is up, Dr Terence Tan removed the applicator and massage the frozen fat / “butter cake” (because it looks so much like a frozen lump of butter) to kick-start the process of excreting dead fat cells. The treated area is tender and sore to touch at this point of time but got better after the massage is done.

Dr. Terence Tan prescribed a total of 12 CoolSculpting Elite applicators to treat my stubborn fat on tummy and flanks. Compared to the legacy CoolSculpting applicators, CoolSculpting Elite range of applicators can reduce treatment time greatly! A traditional CoolSculpting applicator takes 60 minutes but this duration is reduced to 35 minutes with the CoolSculpting Elite applicator. The CoolSculpting Elite range of applicators also features an enhanced cup design for improved comfort as well as a larger cooling area to treat a bigger area.

Does CoolSculpting Elite works?

CoolSculpting Elite removes 20-25% of fat cells in the treated area each time. And because our body is unable to produce new fat cells after age of five years, the fat cells that died from the fat freezing treatment will not reappear. This is why CoolSculpting Elite is effective to remove unwanted fat which cannot be removed through exercises.

How well does CoolSculpting Elite works also depend greatly on the doctor, who is willing to pay attention throughout the procedure since the planning and assessment on the procedure are really important – not about putting on the device solely.

I have prepared a list of Q&A on CoolSculpting Elite relating to my experience for your references. These are good pointers especially if you are considering for a CoolSculpting Elite procedure!

Q: Did I lose weight with CoolSculpting Elite?
A: Nope. CoolSculpting Elite is not a weight loss solution but a medically proven body contouring fat-reduction method.

Q: Does CoolSculpting Elite hurt?
A: I experienced discomfort such as aching and pulling from the suction from the applicator initially. Once the treated area is cooled till -10ºC, the mentioned symptoms subsided. I felt really comfortable thereafter and could even do my work on the phone.

Q: Is CoolSculpting Elite safe?
A: CoolSculpting Elite is FDA-approved as a safe medical treatment but patient must meet the criteria as a suitable candidate. Knockoff machines might sometimes get their way into spas and medical practices, so make sure you are getting the real CoolSculpting Elite machines from provider such as Halley Body Slimming Clinic.

Q: What are the risks and potential side effects of CoolSculpting Elite?
A: Possible side effects include swelling, tenderness, bruising, tingling, or cramping from a few days to several weeks can be experienced. In very rare cases, CoolSculpting Elite might create bulge in the shape of the applicator. Your doctor should inform you of the possible risks before starting the treatment.

Q: What is recovery of CoolSculpting Elite like?
A: The recovery varies, and also highly depending on how the body reacts to the treated areas. There is no downtime and we can resume our daily activities but you may feel soreness and see swelling. It will be good to wear compression garments to ease swelling and discomfort till they are subsided.

After a week or so, I also felt itchiness in the treated areas. This is normal as the nerves are regenerating and a histamine reaction to the inflammatory process of clearing fat cells. These will subside as time goes by, without feeling any pain.

The body will flush out the damaged fat cells over the next three to four months so drink plenty of water and take good care of yourself by opting for healthy food and exercise!

Q: How soon can a second CoolSculpting Elite treatment be scheduled?
A: The second treatment should be scheduled within 30 to 60 days as it can enhance the treatment result greatly. The first treatment triggers an inflammatory response around the fat cells that dissipates in 60 to 90 days, & a second treatment within the first 60 days generates a stronger inflammatory response, leading to greater fat reduction. The number of treated areas may also be reduced since your fat cells have been flushed out from the body after the first treatment.

Q: How long does it take to see CoolSculpting Elite results?
A: I saw result within a month but majority should see the result within two months. The body will continue to eliminate the treated fat cells for up to three months post-treatment. If you are planning to get CoolSculpting Elite for an event, make sure you schedule it way earlier in order to enjoy its full visible effect.

Q: Why CoolSculpting Elite took so long to deliver results?
A: CoolSculpting Elite releases the fats to be metabolized and eliminated according to our individual biology. To speed up, drinking plenty of water and exercising will help.

Q: Is the result from CoolSculpting Elite permanent?
A: The frozen fat cells killed by CoolSculpting Elite are permanently gone. A healthy diet and regular exercise will help to maintain. Gaining weight will cause the remaining fat cells in the treated areas to expand, developing surface irregularities.

My Final Thought

Reducing excess body fat is a good motivator to kick-start your healthy lifestyle. Result is definitely visible after I did my CoolSculpting Elite at Halley Body Slimming Clinic. Although I am more mindful for what I am eating nowadays, the love for food and celebrations always got me indulging more than usual, moreover creating social media contents with food reviews is a norm for me.

Is it worth to get CoolSculpting Elite? My answer is yes, especially when you have soft stubborn fats at areas that refused to go away with exercise and diet. I did not control my diet or go for exercise regularly after my CoolSculpting Elite so the result achieved is really amazing! I tried many health supplements, diet plans and exercises but none can give me result like CoolSculpting Elite did – a more contoured treated area and deflated fat pockets permanently.

A healthy diet with lesser sugar & fats is always the rule to a balance lifestyle, and should also prolong the effects from CoolSculpting Elite greatly. Gain confidence with CoolSculpting Elite and make sure you have good amount of pinch-able fats and time for the effect of CoolSculpting Elite to take place!

Get Ready For Lunar New Year 2022 with Tokyo Bust Express

I cannot believe Lunar New Year will be here in less than a month! BUT no qualm for me because I’m ready, so sisters please get ready too!

2021 is over and in a blink, the Year of Tiger (Lunar Chinese New Year 2022) is coming! Being the most important festival for Chinese, we always welcome it with pride, preparing the best for ourselves and love ones. This annual event will also comes with diverse activities and celebrations, where we will present ourselves at the best for a brand new start. What is that something you will do each year when you prepare for Lunar New Year?

Buying new stuffs for myself and home is a must since it symbolizes new beginning to me. I will also be busy doing spring cleaning as it symbolizes removing negativity in the year to welcoming the positive ones in the coming new year. While doing all these, I also make sure to stay diligent with my self care routines such as daily skincare, exercising and getting a healthy meal as much as possible.

Here I’m sharing with you my top 3 must do for my Lunar New Year. Do these resonate something or are relevant to you too?

1. Spring Cleaning

I clean almost everything in the house including the furnitures & walls, as well as removing stuffs that I don’t need anymore. Expired stuffs will definitely be thrown while old clothings and stuffs that could repurpose will be donated to the relative organizations. This is an important procedure to me since I cluttered stuffs throughout the days and might even forgot their existence after putting away. This is a great opportunity to sort, throw & organize – also to remove all the bad luck in the year and welcoming the prosperous ones in the coming new year.

2. New Year Shopping

Shopping is one of my favorite activities all year round but is extra attractive during the festive season because there will be good promotions and discounts running by the companies during this period. In the past, I will always join the crowds in shopping malls and markets, shopping for new clothes, home decorations, CNY tidbits and snacks, as well as fresh plants and flowers for my home. Ever since the pandemic hit, online shopping has become my preferred option – for its safety, for its convenience, as well as e-commerce companies will always launch promotions with huge discounts!

3. Self Care Routine

Lunar New Year is the time where we meet up with relatives and family members that we have not meet for some time. We will meet them for reunion before the actual new year day, as well as the first few days of the festival. This is also the time where I will be viewed and commented by them so grooming my appearance pleasant is highly important to me.

Proper daily skin care routine should not be neglected, and I will also apply beauty mask and taking supplements extra diligently during this period. I like to dress up to emphasize my curves so eating healthy and taking care of my bust are also essential to make me feeling great for the Lunar New Year. I will try to wear Cheongsam (Qipao) if I spot pretty design so getting myself ready with healthy looking bust line is a must. Exercising, staying hydrated, applying moisturizer and sunscreen are the few things I did at home for my bust care. Checking out Tokyo Bust Express regularly can also be a good alternative if you prefer to let the professionals take care of them instead. I have a few experiences with Tokyo Bust Express previously and have noted them in my blog. You can click links below to check them out for your reading pleasures.
