Slimming down can help bodies to shimmy into smaller clothing and move down an arm-wrestling weight class. Look better for any endeavor with today’s Groupon: for $275, you get a one-hour CoolSculpting body-contouring treatment from Innsbrook Plastic Surgery (a $725 value). The treatment can be used on one of the following areas:
- Back
- Bra fat
- One inner thigh
- One inner arm
- One love handle
- Abdomen (usually requires 2¬–3 treatments for best results)
Dr. Louise Ferland, a board-certified plastic surgeon, has developed an eye for artistry during her 20 years of cosmetic procedures and sculpts bodily masterpieces during noninvasive CoolSculpting treatments. The CoolSculpting device targets stubborn bulges, isolating them between two cooling panels. During the first 3–5 minutes of the one-hour session, the patient feels pressure and intense cold reminiscent of being pinched by a snowman. After that, the sensation subsides, and patients comfortably read, work on laptops, or listen to music for the rest of the treatment. Fat cells crystallize inside the body, which gradually flushes them out, resulting in fat loss that may begin appearing three weeks after sessions, is most dramatic two–four months after the session, and continues for up to six months. Some patients may experience temporary minor bruising, aching, or temporary numbness, but there is no downtime, and guests may immediately resume a normal routine of working, running errands, and wishing that they had an extrudable tongue. Research reveals an average of 20% fat reduction in treated areas, giving clients a boost of confidence in slimmer physiques.

When Dr. Louise Ferland says, “if it is not good enough for myself or my family, it is not good enough for my patients,” she means it. Take, for example, the new Cool Sculpting procedure, a treatment that freezes stubborn fat to reduce the appearance of bulges and one that Ferland, her staff, and her family have had done with successful results. With more than 20 years of experience in nonsurgical and surgical cosmetic procedures, she specializes in plastic surgery for the face and body. She also helps clients fight aging by performing skin peels, injecting muscles with Botox, and stopping them when they start stories with “back in the day.”
