CoolSculpting® is a revolutionary non-surgical contouring treatment that freezes stubborn fat, which then is naturally eliminated from your body.  No needles, no special diets, no supplements, no surgery.  And most importantly, no downtime.  It is now offered at Birken Medical Aesthetics of The Woodlands.

CoolSculpting® is completely non-surgical, so typically you can return to normal activities immediately. Some patients experience redness, minor bruising, tingling, numbness or discomfort in the treated area, but this is temporary and will resolve completely. Often times, patients return to work after the session is over.   You may start to see changes as quickly as three weeks after your treatment, and will experience the most dramatic results after one to three months. Your body is still flushing fat cells and will continue doing so for up to four to six months after treatment.

New Diet Pill For Weigtht Management Medicine from Birken Medical Aesthetics in Houston and The Woodlands, Texas

Metformin/Raspberry Ketone/Resveratrol/Green Tea Extract/African Mango/Caralluma Fimbriata 175/35/35/50/100/175mg Capsule

 

Metformin appears to cause a loss of appetite and feelings of fullness and possibly lead to weight loss. If you are following a restricted diet and exercising regularly, you may see a significant reduction in weight.  Metformin decreases the amount of glucose, or sugar, produced by the liver to lower levels in the body. It also leads to a decreased absorption of glucose from the intestines. Furthermore, the drug increases sensitivity to insulin, allowing the body to use it more effectively.  The most frequent side effects of metformin are gastrointestinal. Nausea and vomiting may occur in 7 to 26 percent of individuals. Diarrhea may be seen in up to 53 percent of patients. Do not drink a lot of alcoholic drinks while taking metformin. This means you should not binge drink for short periods, and you should not drink a lot of alcohol on a regular basis. Alcohol can increase the chance of getting lactic acidosis which is a serious medical condition.

Raspberry Ketone is a chemical from red raspberries that is thought to help for weight loss. Some research in animals shows that it might increase some measures of metabolism. It might also affect a hormone in the body called adiponectin which appears to tell your body to burn calories instead of saving them as fat.  It also has a powerful insulin lowering response and is most commonly used for weight loss and obesity. It is also used to increase lean body mass.

Resveratrol is a polyphenol compound, most prominently reported as the health-promoting chemical in red wine.  A study showed that resveratrol inhibited pre-fat cells from multiplying and maturing. The polyphenol prevented the cells’ ability to store fat. It also reduced the production of certain cytokines that may cause obesity-related diseases such as diabetes, clogged arteries and heart disease.

Green Tea Extract could raise your energy expenditure, and possibly even help battle obesity. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a compound found in green tea, was shown to increase fat oxidation by 33 percent. This result comes from one of many studies that have looked at green tea’s potential in weight loss. EGCG has been shown to be a key component in many of these studies. There are a number of ways the EGCG could help aid weight loss including possibly increasing metabolism and fat oxidation, inhibiting fat cell development and increasing fat excretion.

African Mango has been the subject of many scientific studies, including several which focused on weight loss. Results showed that the extract from this remarkable fruit can regulate your metabolism and blood sugar, inhibit growth of fat cells and help control your appetite, leading to significant weight reduction.

Caralluma Fimbriata is a succulent plant, in the cactus family, that has been used as a natural appetite suppressant in India for centuries.  Caralluma Fimbriata is believed to block the activity of several enzymes, which then blocks the formation of fat, forcing fat reserves to be burned.  Caralluma Fimbriata is also believed to have an effect on the appetite control mechanism of the brain.

Dr. Randy Birken is a board certified physician and offers the use of HCG, HCG diet, and HCG hormone injections to accelerate weight loss and fat reduction along with a healthy diet and effective exercise.
