Dad bod

When it comes to the body, the abdomen is the primary focus of the male patient – however, the Dad Bod can mean different things to each man. Some are seeking a more V-shaped torso; while others want to reduce subcutaneous fat around the flanks and feel more confident in a T-shirt. Whether you’re looking to slim down, or sculpt a six-pack, our bespoke body contouring protocols are proven to deliver outstanding results – but just as importantly, they act as a much-needed kickstart: to stick to a healthy diet, keep your weight in check, and lead a more balanced lifestyle.

What can help?

CoolSculpting is an effective, non-surgical solution to improving the appearance of the Dad Bod. It works by freezing, and therefore destroying, the fat cells (a process referred to as apoptosis or “cell death”), which are then eliminated via the body’s lymphatic system – and once gone, the fat cells do not return.

Common Questions

What are the benefits?

Our tailor-made CoolSculpting plans enable us to define a tidy waistline and shape the lower abdomen – and we use a variety of different-shaped applicators, which allow us to follow the body’s natural contours. Though the primary function of CoolSculpting is to refine the silhouette, it also has a mild skin tightening effect.

Which anaesthetic is used?

CoolSculpting is a non-invasive body contouring treatment, and therefore requires no anaesthetic. A cold gel pad will be applied to the area to be treated, ensuring that skin is protected from the extreme cold; however, once the treatment begins, the area quickly becomes numb – so any sensation is minimal.

What's the downtime?

There is very little downtime with CoolSculpting, and most patients are ready to resume their normal activities straight after treatment. Some might experience tingling, redness or slight bruising in the area treated; however, this is normal and usually subsides in the following weeks.

When will I see results?

The full effects of CoolSculpting take up to three months to be seen – the time taken for the body to eliminate the fat cells – however, some patients notice a reduction in stubborn fat pockets even sooner. While the fat cells cannot return to the treated area, it is important that you maintain a healthy weight and lifestyle – for a sustainable, and long-lasting result.
