Can you really just freeze fat away? Believe it or not, you can. Our second technique to rid your body of unhealthy fat is Zeltiq. This is actually one of the few techniques that is actually FDA approved. However, don't underestimate the investment. Ideal for sculpturing if done by an experienced plastic surgeon and you have a lot of money. When they are giving quotes, we found many of these quotes for areas the size of a hotdog. Plus it may even take more than 1 treatment so if you are budgeting for this make sure you explain what your final desire is (and be realistic) and see how many treatments it will take.

In addition to Zeltiq, the FDA also cleared another weight-loss method called Zerona, which aims a low-energy laser at troublesome areas, forcing the fat cells to empty in a matter of weeks.
"They certainly don't replace diet and exercise," Bass said, "but they're another option for a subset of patients that just need to take a little bit off."
The FDA clearance can mean a bonanza for marketers who can use that for pronouncement in advertising. The fat-freezing device has been used "off label" for fat-busting. It's manufacturers have solid scientific evidence to support its effectiveness in freezing on average 22 percent of the fat layer reduction. It's mostly for people of normal body weight with just a few nagging trouble spots.
The laser device, in contrast, is the first of its kind to receive FDA clearance which means, while safe, the body of scientific evidence is less robust and less well-documented. But unlike liposuction, these treatments are non-invasive, meaning there's virtually no down time and very little physical risks.

New weight-loss treatments are always sought as more and more Americans struggle with expanding waistlines.
The FDA is also expected to review a weight-loss pill known as Contrave in December. The drug shows promise: Researchers found that clinical trial participants began losing weight four weeks after starting the drug regimen and lost an average of 6.1 percent of their body fat after more than a year of treatment.
But, so far, none of the weight-loss treatments seems to be magic pill. Some have embarrassing gastrointestinal side effects and doctors have continuously stressed that pills and lasers are never meant to replace old-fashioned diet and exercise.
