What to Expect Post-CoolTone® Treatment

  • Muscle Soreness: It is normal to feel mild to moderate muscle soreness for 24 to 48 hours post-treatment, similar to an intense workout session.
  • Temporary Muscle Twitching:You may notice mild muscle spasms or occasional involuntary twitching in the treated area as the muscle fibers recover.
  • Mild Redness & Warmth: Increased blood flow to the targeted muscle group may cause light surface redness and warmth immediately following your appointment.
  • Progressive Definition:Initial firmness is felt within 1 to 2 weeks, with peak strength and visual muscle definition appearing 2 to 4 weeks after completing your series.

CoolTone® Post-Care Instructions

Maintain Hydration & Protein Intake: Drink plenty of water and maintain adequate protein consumption to assist your body in repairing and building muscle tissue.

Apply Alastin TransFORM Body Treatment: Massage Alastin TransFORM Body Treatment topically twice daily over the area to support skin firming alongside expanding muscle tone.

Keep Your Session Schedule: CoolTone® requires a series of 4 to 6 sessions scheduled 2 to 3 days apart. Stay consistent to achieve maximum muscle thickening.

Light Active Recovery: Light cardio, stretching, or walking is encouraged. Avoid targeting the exact same muscle group with heavy resistance training on treatment days.
