Plastic Surgery Specialist in New Jersey Offering Seminars on CoolSculpting

ENGLEWOOD, NJ, March 27, 2011 (Press-News.org) Dr. Richard D'Amico (http://www.drdamico.com), a board-certified plastic surgeon in New Jersey, has been performing CoolSculpting by ZELTIQ for several months and is now offering educational seminars on this new body contouring procedure.

Dr. D'Amico's educational seminars will help women and men learn how CoolSculpting works, see its many advantages, and discover how it differs from traditional liposuction. Three seminars will be offered in March: March 16 from 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm; March 23 from 9:30 am - 10:30 am; and March 23 from 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm. Registration is required for these free seminars and people interested in attending should call 201-567-9595.

Dr. D'Amico states, "Many people who had been considering liposuction in New Jersey are now learning about ways to achieve a slimmer figure without surgery. CoolSculpting is often ideal for people who have tried to lose weight with diet and exercise but have not seen the body slimming results they want. With CoolSculpting, it is possible to reduce smaller areas of unwanted fat without surgery."

This non-surgical body contouring method is also becoming increasingly popular at Dr. D'Amico's plastic surgery practice in New Jersey in part due to its rapid recovery time. CoolSculpting may take as little as an hour to perform, and immediately afterwards patients can return to their regular activities. This is very different from traditional liposuction, which can require several weeks before recovery is complete.

"CoolSculpting makes sense for people who want to change their bodies but simply don't have the luxury to take weeks off from work, family or other responsibilities," adds Dr. D'Amico. "This is a real scientific advancement in how I am able to achieve body contouring for my patients."

CoolSculpting may not be ideal for everyone, and for people who need more extensive correction, traditional liposuction or even a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) may be a more appropriate choice. Dr. D'Amico also performs cosmetic enhancements for the face and breasts including face /neck lift (rhytidectomy), breast augmentation and breast reconstruction.

"I hope anyone interested in CoolSculpting will be able to attend one of the convenient seminars offered at my office," says Dr. D'Amico. "Sometimes the first step is the hardest one, but people who decide to take charge of their appearance and self-image can see very satisfying results."
