Many people struggle with stubborn areas of fat or muscle tone that just won’t budge, no matter how much they exercise. These challenges, often caused by aging or genetics, can be frustrating.
However, there’s a solution to help you achieve the body you want. CoolTone, is a non-invasive treatment, offered for the first time in Raleigh at Diehl Plastic Surgery.
What is CoolTone treatment?
CoolTone is a non-invasive body sculpting treatment that helps strengthen and tone muscles using magnetic muscle stimulation (MMS). FDA-cleared and developed by Allergan, the same company behind CoolSculpting, CoolTone targets the abdominal muscles, thighs, and buttocks to enhance muscle tone and definition.
Whether you’re looking to refine your fitness efforts or start a more toned physique, CoolTone treatment delivers impressive results in just 30 minutes per session.
How does CoolTone work?
During your CoolTone treatment, the device utilizes magnetic muscle stimulation (MMS) to send targeted electromagnetic pulses into your skin and fat layers. This triggers deep, involuntary muscle contractions that activate your muscle fibers, helping to strengthen and tone them.
As a result, these targeted muscle fibers become firmer and more defined. With each session, you’ll gradually see improved muscle strength and definition – all without breaking a sweat!
In fact, CoolTone offers 50% more magnetic intensity compared to similar devices, making it one of the most effective non-invasive body contouring treatments available today.
Who can benefit from CoolTone?
CoolTone is ideal for active individuals who workout but want to target specific muscle groups for toning and definition, especially in areas that may not respond as well to traditional exercise alone. This treatment is particularly effective for:
- Those with active lifestyles who want to enhance muscle definition.
- People who’ve reached a plateau in their fitness journey and want a boost.
- Those looking to add definition to areas like the abs, buttocks, or thighs without the time commitment of strenuous workouts.
- While CoolTone is beneficial for most people, it’s important to have a consultation to determine whether it’s the right option for you.

How much is CoolTone?

Remember that multiple sessions are recommended for optimal results, so the total cost depends on the number of treatments needed.
CoolTone FAQs
How long does CoolTone last?
The results of CoolTone treatment typically last 3–6 months. However, the duration can vary depending on several factors, including lifestyle, maintenance, and follow-up treatments.
Is CoolTone permanent?
The results are long-lasting, but muscle toning can lessen or fade over time if you don’t continue with regular treatments or exercise routine.
What is the difference between CoolSculpting and CoolTone?
CoolSculpting targets and freezes stubborn fat cells to reduce fat in specific areas, while CoolTone uses electromagnetic energy to tone and strengthen muscles for a more sculpted look. Both treatments are non-invasive and can be combined for optimal results.
How soon will I see results?
Results can be seen within 2-4 weeks, but for full effects, you may need to wait up to 8 weeks after completing your treatment series.
Is CoolTone painful?
CoolTone is a non-invasive treatment, so it is generally well-tolerated with no pain involved. Some may feel temporary muscle spasms or discomfort during treatment, but it’s not typically painful.
How many CoolTone sessions do I need?
For best results, most patients undergo 4-6 treatments, spaced a few days apart. Your specific needs will be discussed during your consultation.
Can you combine CoolTone with other procedures?
Yes, CoolTone can be combined with other body contouring procedures like liposuction or CoolSculpting. However, it’s essential to consult with your healthcare provider to understand the potential risks and benefits before proceeding with multiple treatments.
