CoolTone’s Magnetic Muscle Stimulation, or MMS technology, penetrates through the skin and fat layers to target the muscle layers, inducing involuntary muscle contractions.

During a CoolTone treatment, an applicator is used to deliver energy resulting in contraction of the muscle tissue. Approximately 25,000 supramaximal muscle contractions will occur during a single session. These contractions are much more powerful than the voluntary contractions that occur while performing exercises such as sit ups and crunches or squats and occur at a much faster rate than such exercises can provide. The body responds to these contractions by remodeling and developing muscle tissue resulting in improved muscle strength, firmness and toning.

The process allows patients to receive natural looking tone and contours without a surgical procedure.

Allergan, the company who manufactured CoolTone, conducted many clinical studies with multiple patients targeted specifically on the areas of the abdomen and buttocks. The studies measured fat and muscle with imaging (CT scans and MRI studies) by comparing the before and after treatment photos on the patients. The results of the studies show how effective CoolTone is at increasing muscle mass.

In clinical studies, patients gained 16% muscle mass after a series of 4 treatments with the CoolTone system.

You may notice results within just a few weeks, with the most noticeable changes occurring after about three months. We will recommend the right number of treatment sessions for your needs, but generally about 4-8 sessions are needed to start for the best results then you can do maintenance as needed/desired (it is a muscle and if you don’t use it, you will lose it).
