Pure Aesthetics is Gainesville’s most experienced body sculpting facility. They are the No. 1 CoolSculpting facility in North Central Florida and offer expertise in the most up-to-date treatments including:
- CoolSculpting Elite
- CoolTone by CoolSculpting
- Morpheus8 Body
- FORMA by InMode
- Kybella
Treatment Choices
CoolSculpting Elite is a state-of-the-art, minimally invasive fat reduction procedure that can be performed within the comfort of the Pure Aesthetics CoolSculpting suite. For those tired of their muffin top, lower stomach, or back and bra bulges, this offering freezes away unwanted fat.
CoolTone by CoolSculpting is an innovative method that tones, firms and strengthens the muscles in the abdomen, buttocks and thighs. Clients enjoy a flatter stomach, firmer thighs and a tighter butt in 30 minutes. Treatments leave the targeted areas feeling stronger and looking toned and sculpted.
Morpheus8 Body is the first and only Food and Drug Administration-cleared radiofrequency and microneedling technology to provide deep, 8mm subdermal adipose tissue remodeling to the body. This minimally invasive treatment tightens skin and reduces the appearance of cellulite, stretch marks and scars, while improving the overall tone and texture of the skin.
Forma is a new FDA-approved technology used to diminish the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the face and neck. The safe, painless skin tightening uses radiofrequency (RF) to stimulate collagen, counteract the effects of aging and improve the skin’s elasticity.
Kybella is a series of injections under the chin to destroy fat cells to improve a client’s profile. The result is a nonsurgical solution to reduce submental fullness- the infamous double chin.
Winning Combination
A common method that delivers impressive results combines two services. CoolSculpting removes stubborn fat cells permanently, while CoolTone uses magnetic muscle stimulation to help tone and strengthen muscles, enhancing overall body contour. Four areas can be treated simultaneously.
“Our clients have been very happy with their contouring results,” Blaser said. “With our experienced providers, they can relax knowing they are in expert hands.”
Many feel that by treating their abdomen, they have also strengthened their lower back, and by treating their hamstrings have also helped with low back issues and mobility.
Customized Solutions
The Pure Aesthetics team of body contouring professionals is highly trained to develop customized individual treatment plans. During the complimentary consultation, the client’s body-contouring goals are discussed. For most patients, four to eight treatments are recommended over the course of two to four weeks.
Forty-one-year-old Gainesville resident and longtime client Melanie Yarbough recently tried the new treatment.
“I absolutely love my results from CoolSculpting,” Yarbrough said. “There is no better way to get rid of stubborn fat than to relax while sipping Champagne and watching Emily in Paris.”
Blaser is passionate about helping people look and feel their best. She is especially happy to help her clients avoid the risks and costs associated with anesthesia and surgery but still gain the benefits of long-lasting body contouring and muscle toning.
“We can help unlock your body’s full potential,” Blaser said. “It’s like a workout without the sweat and a win-win situation for your confidence and your wallet.”
How Does CoolTone Work?
CoolTone uses magnetic muscle stimulation (MMS) that channels electromagnetic energy through muscles, causing involuntary contractions. The process mimics the muscle toning behind an actual workout but triggers stronger contractions than the body can achieve on its own. The body then begins strengthening the muscles in the target treatment area, making them firmer and more toned. The entire process takes 30 minutes from start to finish.
