What Is Body Contouring at MINT?

Body contouring at MINT uses two FDA-approved technologies that work together to reshape your body without surgery, anesthesia, or recovery time.

CoolSculpting uses controlled cooling to freeze and permanently destroy fat cells in targeted areas. The treated cells are processed out by your body over the following weeks. Results are permanent and visible.

CoolTone uses magnetic muscle stimulation to make your muscles contract harder and more often than they can during a normal workout. The result: stronger, more defined muscles in the abs, glutes, thighs, and arms.

Both are non-invasive. Neither requires anesthesia or downtime. The results compound when they're used together.

You've Been Doing the Work. Your Body Won't Respond.

You eat clean. You train consistently. You're at a healthy weight. There's still a pocket of fat on your stomach, your flanks, or your inner thighs that won't move. Your booty isn't where you want it. Your abs are hiding under skin that won't tighten.

The body doesn't always cooperate with diet and exercise. Stubborn fat pockets are partly genetic and partly hormonal, and no amount of crunches will spot-reduce them. Lost muscle tone is a function of age, recovery, and how hard your body is actually being asked to work.

Body contouring is what gets you the last 10%. The part diet and the gym can't finish.

How We Do Body Contouring at MINT

Step one | Book your appointment

A real conversation about your goals, your training, and what your body is actually doing. We use InBody biometric analysis to see your real body composition before we recommend anything.

Step two | Get treated

Sometimes that's CoolSculpting on specific fat pockets. Sometimes it's CoolTone on the muscle groups you want to build. Often it's both, layered across sessions. We don't recommend the package, we recommend the treatment.

Step three | watch your body transform

In just a few weeks, you’ll finally get the body you’ve always dreamed of.

Body contouring at MINT is for:

  • Adults at or near a healthy weight with specific fat pockets that won't budge

  • Clients with belly fat, flank fat (love handles), inner thigh fat, or arm fat

  • People who've lost significant weight and want to refine their results

  • Clients dealing with loss of muscle tone, especially in the glutes and core

  • Athletes wanting to amplify muscle strength and definition

  • Adults recovering from illness or injury who need to rebuild muscle

  • People who want abs they've earned but can't quite see

  • Anyone who wants noticeable results without surgery, anesthesia, or downtime

Body contouring is not a weight loss tool. If you have significant weight to lose, we'll recommend our medical weight loss program first, then refine with CoolSculpting and CoolTone once you've reached your target.

Body Contouring Done by People Who Look at Your Whole Body

Body contouring at MINT is overseen by Dr. Sanjay Sundar, and Rachel Sundar, (Founder), with Nurse Practitioner Nikki Goff, on the clinical team. We use InBody biometric analysis to see your real body composition before we recommend any treatment, and we re-scan to track real changes over time.

We're also the same team that runs your hormones, your peptides, and your medical weight loss. That matters more than it sounds. Stubborn fat is often hormonal. Lost muscle tone is often hormonal. If your body composition isn't responding to the gym, we can figure out why before we treat the surface.

More About Body Contouring at MINT

MINT Aesthetics + Wellness offers non-invasive body contouring at our Bettendorf, Iowa clinic using two FDA-approved technologies: CoolSculpting and CoolTone. CoolSculpting uses controlled cryolipolysis (cold) to permanently destroy targeted fat cells, while CoolTone uses magnetic muscle stimulation to strengthen and tone muscle groups. Both treatments are non-invasive, require no anesthesia or surgical recovery, and can be used independently or in combination for comprehensive body reshaping.

  • CoolSculpting at MINT treats stubborn fat in the abdomen, flanks, inner and outer thighs, bra and back area, under the chin, and upper arms. Treatment cost varies based on the number and size of areas addressed. Each session lasts 35 to 60 minutes per area, and most clients need 1 to 2 sessions per area for full effect. Results build gradually over 4 to 12 weeks as the body processes out the destroyed fat cells and are considered permanent.

    CoolTone at MINT targets the abdomen, glutes, thighs, and arms with high-intensity magnetic muscle stimulation, producing muscle contractions far stronger than those achievable through normal exercise. Each session is 30 minutes per area. Packages of 3 or 12 sessions are available at a significant discount. Most clients require 4 to 6 sessions per muscle group for full effect, with maintenance sessions recommended every 3 to 6 months.

    Body contouring at MINT is best suited for clients at or near a healthy weight with specific concerns rather than significant weight to lose. For clients with more than 20 pounds to lose, the MINT clinical team typically recommends a medical weight loss program first. Body contouring works in coordination with hormone replacement therapy, peptide therapy, and medical weight loss programs at MINT to address the underlying contributors to stubborn fat and lost muscle tone.

    MINT is led by Dr. Sanjay Sundar, and Rachel Sundar, (Founder), with Nurse Practitioner Nikki Goff, and aesthetician Lori Caruso on the clinical team. MINT serves client across Bettendorf, Davenport, Moline, Rock Island, East Moline, Eldridge, LeClaire, Walcott, Silvis, Colona, Milan, Muscatine, Clinton, Iowa City, Aledo, Cambridge, Kewanee, Geneseo, and surrounding Quad Cities communities. Body contouring requires in-person visits.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • CoolSculpting freezes and destroys fat cells. CoolTone strengthens and tones muscle. They treat different problems. CoolSculpting changes the layer of fat over your muscle. CoolTone changes the muscle itself. Many clients use both for full reshaping.

  • Permanent. Once fat cells are destroyed by the cooling, they don't come back. You can still gain weight in the treated area if remaining fat cells expand, but the cells we destroyed are gone for good.

  • Muscle gains last as long as you maintain them with general activity. Most clients do maintenance sessions every 3 to 6 months to keep the results. Stopping CoolTone is similar to stopping any strength training: the muscle eventually softens if not used.

  • The first 5 to 10 minutes are intense cold and pulling sensations. Then the area numbs and most clients find the rest of the session relatively comfortable. Afterward, some soreness, tingling, or numbness for a few days.

  • It feels like an intense workout. The contractions are strong but most clients tolerate them well. You can adjust the intensity throughout the session.

  • Different procedures for different clients. Liposuction removes more fat in a single session and produces faster results, but requires anesthesia, surgery, and downtime. CoolSculpting is non-invasive, requires no recovery, and produces gradual results. We can talk through which is right for your goals.

  • CoolSculpting: noticeable changes by week 4 to 6, full effect by week 12. CoolTone: muscle activation felt immediately, visible tone over 4 to 6 sessions.

  • Yes. We can do multiple CoolSculpting applicators in the same session, or treat CoolSculpting and CoolTone in the same visit.

  • Both CoolSculpting and CoolTone are FDA-approved and have strong safety records. Side effects are typically minor (temporary redness, soreness, numbness) and resolve on their own.

  • No. CoolSculpting destroys fat cells in specific areas, but the change on the scale is usually small. The change in how your clothes fit and how your body looks is what most clients notice.
