Are you losing the fight with your “trouble spots”? Are your love-handles showing you who’s boss? Maybe a double chin is giving you an attitude adjustment or you feel weighed down by saddlebags?? Chances are, you’re coming to the gym, doing the “right thing” but your trouble spots won’t go away no matter how hard you exercise. It’s just not fair. All you really want is to make those “trouble spots” disappear. Right?
I’m here to tell you that it’s possible, not only possible but we can knock out those trouble spots right here at Telos, together – non-invasively with minimal downtime. No one will ever have to know. You need the right tools and the right physician in your corner. I’ve got my own trouble spots and if you’ve ever seen me in the weight room, you know I get down to business when it comes to building a better body.
What the trainers say is true. You can’t spot-train your fat…but you can spot-treat it with Coolsculpting. It turns out that fat is not that tough when it comes to the cold. Coolsculpting works by freezing subcutaneous tissue just enough to kill the fat cells while the surrounding skin, vessel and nerve cells remain viable. Each treatment will gently kill a portion of the fat cells which slowly die over a few weeks. Multiple treatments are necessary, just like it takes several doses of antibiotic or chemotherapy to work. Unlike surgery or liposuction, Coolsculpting is non-invasive – no open wounds, no incision, no bleeding or infection risk. There is essentially no down time. You could literally do a round while on lunch break and go right back to work.
Now that the frenzy of the holidays has passed, it’s time to seize 2019 (and your trouble spots) by the tail. Don’t think twice about it. Start by scheduling a one-on-one physician consultation with me in my office (upstairs), Monday – Friday 9:00 – 5:00. I will take a medical history and get an understanding of your goals, look for indicators of hormonal/dietary problems, discuss the procedure, alternatives, and pricing. I’ll do a physical exam which will help me assess whether Coolsculpting is appropriate and, if so, how many freezing cycles would be required to cover the total surface area you want treated. Only then, would we be able to calculate the total price. The appointment will last about 45 minutes and costs a reduced consultation fee of $175, a worthy investment in your future. All would be applied toward the cost of subsequent Coolsculpting. Patient financing is available and Allergan is offering limited time rebates worth hundreds of dollars on Coolsculpting in February.
The procedure itself would be scheduled on separate dates about a month between rounds of treatment so now is the time to get started for spring and summer.
Personal Best MD is offering competitive pricing with the added value of being performed by the physician, not just any physician….a physician who is double board-certified, a certified personal trainer, certified yoga instructor and competitive bikini bodybuilder with a special interest in sports nutrition. Because
my patients’ results and happiness are my utmost goal, I am offering a customized diet and exercise program to the first dozen patients from Telos who purchase 3 or 4 Coolsculpting treatments of the same area. Many people have asked my guidance on this topic but one-on-one coaching for this will not be feasible in the future. This unique program is based on all aspects of my training and my experience counseling patients of various ages and disability level for almost 20 years as well as mindfulness and meditation training through Buddhism. Aimed at addressing the psychological hurdles that have sabotaged my patients, it incorporates inspiring interviews of those grappling with morbid obesity and profound disability. With each individual, I will be spending roughly $2,000 worth of my time
Topics include:
– Reframing one’s perspective on exercise and prioritizing it above other activities
– Using meditation and mindfulness to overcome self-criticism and redefine “failure”
– Dissolving the denial around caloric intake and expenditure by tracking data.
– Instilling accountability and developing positive momentum towards higher goals.
– The impact of neurotransmitters and emotion on diet & exercise
Call (972)806-0697 now to schedule a consultation! You and I will take down those trouble spots, together.
