ThermiSculpt³
ThermiSculpt³ is an advanced neck and jawline contouring treatment exclusively available only at Cosmetic Laser Dermatology that combines facial liposculpture, ThermiTight, and select injectables to address excess fat and skin laxity without surgery. This comprehensive approach is designed to refine the chin and neck while supporting collagen and elastic fiber production for a more defined, balanced profile.
CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting uses cryolipolysis to freeze and destroy fat cells, which are then gradually processed by the body. This treatment is commonly used for liposuction belly fat alternatives, back fat liposuction concerns, arms, flanks, and thighs, with visible coolsculpting results developing over time.
Liposuction/Liposculpture
Liposculpture is a minimally invasive procedure that removes and shapes fat using a fine cannula. It can treat areas such as thighs, back, abdomen, arms, calves, buttocks, neck, and jowls, offering precise contouring compared to traditional liposuction san diego techniques.
Neck & Chin Liposuction/Liposculpture
Neck and chin liposuction focus on removing excess fat beneath the chin and along the jawline. This approach is effective for patients seeking immediate structural improvement and is often compared with Kybella for double chin treatment options.
CoolTone
CoolTone uses electromagnetic muscle stimulation to strengthen underlying muscles while complementing fat reduction procedures. It is commonly applied to the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks to enhance contour and firmness.
Kybella
Kybella is the first FDA approved injectable designed specifically for kybella double chin concerns. Kybella for double chin works by breaking down fat cells beneath the chin, leading to gradual improvement in jawline definition with a series of kybella treatment sessions.

I trust Farzaneh Momeni completely with my skin. She is by far the best clinical aesthetician I’ve ever known. My skin has improved dramatically since I began monthly facials with her. Her treatments are 100% results-driven so if this is what you seek, look no further. Also, the entire Team at West Dermatology are top-notch. They’re always friendly, professional, & helpful, & greet everyone with a smile. 10 Stars all around!
My new regular cosmetic dermatology office. Dr Zubair is amazing and really patient with me. He has helped me over the last year with keloid scar removal, jaw Botox, and full facial acne scar treatment (ultra clear). The office is clean and the nursing/medical assistant staff is accommodating on all levels. I will always recommend this office and Dr Zubair to friends and family.
Most professional and most impressive! The service from the physicians to office staff is superb!
I live in Orange County and drove all the way out to see Dr. Wu because a friend of mine referred him (she had amazing results from her face and neck procedure). Dr. Wu is truly an artist! He made me feel extremely comfortable during my procedure. I was anxious when I got there, but he (and his staff) have such great energy and are so very kind and gentle that you can't help but feel at ease! The office was immaculate and they adhered to covid rules (sanitizing, temp checks, masks). This is my go-to place from now on and Dr. Wu is my go-to guy! Can't wait to see my final results! Thank you Phyllis (pre-op) for being so wonderful and informative! You were so very helpful and kind! I'll definitely be back!
Leysin and the entire team at Cosmetic Laser Dermatology are fantastic. They are professional, caring and communicative. The laser treatment was comfortable, efficient and effective! I highly recommend this practice. I definitely will come back and recommend her and Cosmetic Laser Dermatology to my family and friends.
Dr. Goldman is amazing! I came here for my permanent eyeliner removal (which is not offered anywhere near me), and they are completely removed in just one session. They use a special contact lens to protect your eyes from the laser, and there are no damages to my eyelashes. The healing was also nice and smooth. They have everything you need. I live almost 3 hours away, but it was totally worth the trip. For anyone who is looking to remove their permanent makeup, this is the right place to go :)-
Dr. Butterwick is fantastic, all of her team as well. They make sure your experience is pleasant and painless as possible. My tattoo removal and my injectables look amazing. I highly recommend her for any skin treatment.
Cosmetic Laser Dermatology was recommended to me by my dermatologist. He recommended Dr. Monica Boen. I'm so glad I took his recommendation. Everyone here at Cosmetic Laser Dermatology was super nice and friendly. Very welcoming. I came here for hair removal treatment. I did 4 sessions with Dr. Boen. Dr. Boen made me feel so comfortable and at ease when I talked to her. She explained everything before she did my treatment. I loved that. She was really easy to talk to. I definitely will come back and recommend her and Cosmetic Laser Dermatology to my family and friends.
This office is awesome. My visit today was with Dr. Groff. His bed side manner is so fun and welcoming. He understood my concerns and recommended a treatment plan that I feel was reasonable. I love his staff! They take there time to make sure you understand the treatment and after care. Everyone in the office, from the front desk to the nurses in the back, are so friendly and beautiful. They are very prompt and I trust my care with CLD. I can't wait for my next visit. See you guys in a few weeks!
"Dr. Sabrina Fabi is genius! Her technique is unlike anyone, her eye is precise, and her kindness and caring manner comes from the depth of her soul. She's simply brilliant! It's no wonder people travel the country just to be treated by her."
I wish I could give them 10 stars! I had such an awesome experience for my first visit and I am referring everyone I know to this office. From the super friendly staff to the state of the art procedures, they are the cream of the crop.
“I came to participate in a research study. All of the Doctors and staff at C.L. Dermatology are very professional, warm and friendly. All our my needs were anticipated and the hospitality of this office is like a five star hotel.”

Excess Fat FAQ
Liposuction fat refers to localized fat deposits removed through minimally invasive techniques such as liposculpture or chin liposuction. Fat is physically extracted using a cannula, allowing the physician to shape the area for balanced contours. The cannulas used to extract the fat are so small that they do not need to be closed with sutures.
When performed by experienced board-certified dermatologists using modern techniques, liposuction is considered a well established procedure with defined safety standards and careful patient selection.
Liposuction recovery time varies by treatment area and extent. Most patients experience swelling and bruising initially, with gradual improvement over several weeks as tissues settle.
Thigh liposuction can address inner thighs, outer thighs, and areas where fat affects leg proportion. It is often combined with other contouring procedures for balanced results.
Back fat liposuction targets fat along the bra line or lower back. Removing this fat can improve clothing fit and overall body symmetry.
Liposculpture uses smaller instruments and focuses on detailed shaping rather than bulk fat removal. This approach allows greater control over contour and proportion.
Coolsculpting refers to nonsurgical fat reduction using controlled cooling. Coolsculpting depends on proper patient selection, with gradual fat reduction seen over several months.
Chin, arms, abdomen, flanks, and back are commonly treated areas. It is best suited for small to moderate fat pockets.
Kybella double chin treatment uses injectable deoxycholic acid to break down fat beneath the chin. Multiple sessions may be required, with gradual contour improvement over time.
The choice depends on anatomy, fat volume, and desired timeline for final results. Kybella for double chin offers a nonsurgical option, while chin liposuction provides immediate fat removal and structural refinement.
ThermiTight can be used on the face, neck, jawline, upper arms, abdomen, breasts, and knees. Its versatility allows dermatologists to address skin laxity and mild fat buildup across multiple areas of the body.
ThermiTight uses controlled radiofrequency energy delivered beneath the skin to heat targeted tissue. This process encourages collagen and elastic fiber production while tightening existing skin, leading to gradual improvements in firmness and contour over time.
ThermiSculpt addresses multiple contributors to aging at once, including excess fat, loose skin, and structural support. By combining technologies in a single treatment plan, it offers more comprehensive contouring than standalone procedures.
ThermiSculpt is well suited for patients with submental fat, early to moderate neck laxity, or loss of jawline definition who prefer a non surgical or minimally invasive option. A consultation at Cosmetic Laser Dermatology helps determine whether this approach aligns with anatomy and aesthetic goals.
