CoolTone®

You can now achieve muscle definition and a firm, sculpted body – with fewer hours spent actively working out.

CoolTone® allows you to increase muscle mass, tone, and strength with quick and simple treatment sessions in our office. This non-invasive, high-frequency electromagnetic technology can stimulate the effect of hundreds of crunches or squats in just one session. 

Dr. Rapaport and his team of body contouring specialists proudly offer CoolTone® and several other body sculpting treatments to help patients shape and tone their bodies with options that best suit their lifestyles. Dr. David Rapaport was among the first medical professionals in the world to deliver CoolTone® treatments before its general release in October 2019.

Learn More About CoolTone®

CoolTone® is an FDA-cleared treatment and is safe for most people. You are likely a candidate for CoolTone® if you:

  • Are in good general health
  • Want to achieve greater muscle definition and strength
  • Do not have a pacemaker or other type of implanted medical device that could be disrupted or damaged by electromagnetic activity on or near it.

CoolTone® vs. CoolSculpting®

Both CoolTone® and CoolSculpting® were developed by Allergan to sculpt the body, but they work differently. CoolTone® is a muscle toning device, whereas CoolSculpting® is a fat reduction treatment. 

The two devices use very different technologies. CoolSculpting® freezes fat cells, destroying them, after which your body sheds them over the weeks and months following treatment. CoolTone® delivers electrical pulses to trigger rapid contractions to increase muscle mass, lift, and definition. 

It’s essential to understand that neither of these treatments is a replacement for exercise and a healthy diet, but they can help you target small areas of stubborn fat or improve muscle tone outside the gym. If you have excess fat over the muscles you want to treat with CoolTone®, the results may not be evident, and we may recommend CoolSculpting® to reduce fat first.

The CoolTone® device delivers high-frequency electromagnetic pulses to the targeted muscles, causing them to contract rapidly. These repeated, high-intensity contractions emulate an intense workout. CoolTone® does not harm the skin or require any incisions to produce visible muscle definition, increased muscle mass, and a taut, firm, lifted look. 

The intense, rapid muscle contractions triggered by CoolTone® improve muscle mass and firmness far beyond what could be achieved with exercise. The pulses also stimulate increased circulation that promotes higher levels of collagen production, increasing the strength of muscle connective tissue and remodeling your figure from within. The increased collagen production and stronger connective tissue substantially enhance muscle tone and definition.

The electrical current emitted by the CoolTone® device flows directly into the muscles, activating the motor nerves to stimulate deep muscle contractions. These contractions affect the full array of muscle fibers, dramatically remodeling your physique.

CoolTone® is a simple procedure that takes no longer than a workout but produces far superior results. A session typically lasts 30 minutes, with no restrictions or downtime after. 

One of our experts will apply the CoolTone® device applicator(s) to your treatment area, and you can simply relax, read, or stream your favorite movie or TV show while it puts your muscles through an intense workout. Different intensity levels allow us to customize your treatment to your goals and comfort level. You will feel the involuntary muscle contractions but should not feel any pain. The intensity can be lowered for patients who find the treatment uncomfortable.

For maximum results, two sessions per week for two weeks is the standard, which can be repeated to enhance your figure further. This groundbreaking treatment can significantly resculpt and firm various body areas, including:

  • Abdomen
  • Thighs
  • Buttocks
  • Upper Arms

There is no downtime after CoolTone®; you can return to your usual routine with little to no side effects. The only side effect you may experience is muscle soreness, similar to what you would feel after an intense workout. If you experience any soreness, which is uncommon, it typically lasts a day or two. 

Lack of soreness does not mean the treatment is not effective! This technology works to reduce lactic acid buildup following muscle contractions to eliminate soreness. You can resume exercise whenever you feel comfortable and are encouraged to do so since this will help improve and maintain your results.

It takes time and repetition to see visible results from CoolTone®, like lifting weights or exercising to improve muscle strength and definition. During your consultation, we will assess your condition and goals to create a customized treatment plan and determine how many sessions you’ll need. We typically recommend a series of CoolTone® treatments for at least two weeks. Patients will start to see more muscle definition after a few weeks. These results will improve with continued treatments and regular exercise.

CoolTone® results are long-lasting. However, if not maintained, the treated muscles will gradually lose their increased strength and tone. Occasional maintenance sessions can help, and patients will enjoy the best outcome if they regularly exercise to retain their fitness.
