Your effort deserves results you can see.
You're disciplined. You show up for your workouts. You're committed to how you eat. But despite all that work, your abdominal muscles, glutes, or thighs don't have the definition you'd expect. The problem isn't your effort — it's that conventional exercise, no matter how intense, has a built-in limitation: your nervous system can't voluntarily trigger enough muscle fiber to achieve maximum strength gains.
CoolTone changes that. Using Magnetic Muscle Stimulation (MMS), it penetrates beyond the skin and fat to trigger 25,000 supramaximal contractions — involuntary muscle contractions far beyond what you can create through exercise alone. The result is faster muscle building, improved tone, and the strength-to-definition ratio you've been working toward. At Regenesis Health, CoolTone isn't just a cosmetic enhancement; it's the missing piece for athletes, busy professionals, and anyone who wants to see their discipline reflected in their physique.
The Basics
What is CoolTone?
CoolTone uses Magnetic Muscle Stimulation (MMS) technology to strengthen, tone, and firm muscles through non-invasive electromagnetic energy. FDA-cleared for treatment of the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs, CoolTone delivers results without surgery, downtime, or systemic effects.
Unlike exercise, which relies on voluntary muscle activation, CoolTone triggers involuntary supramaximal contractions — muscle fiber activation at intensities your body cannot achieve through the nervous system alone. A single 30-minute session produces 25,000 contractions, each one building muscle fiber, improving tone, and enhancing definition. Most patients see meaningful results within 4–6 treatment sessions, with continued improvement over time.
Treatment Areas
Where CoolTone Works Best
CoolTone is FDA-cleared for three primary areas where patients seek muscle definition and tone. Each area responds powerfully to electromagnetic stimulation, with results that compound through a series of treatments.
Abdomen
Build core strength and abdominal definition. CoolTone tones the rectus abdominis (six-pack) and obliques, creating visible muscle separation and enhanced definition even at rest.
Buttocks
Lift, firm, and enhance glute definition. CoolTone strengthens the gluteus maximus, medius, and minimus — delivering the lifted, toned appearance that exercise alone may not achieve.
Thighs
Tone and firm the front and back thighs. CoolTone targets quadriceps and hamstring definition, reducing the appearance of laxity while building strength and shape.
How It Works
Magnetic Muscle Stimulation Technology
CoolTone works through a physics principle you've never harnessed on your own: electromagnetic energy penetrates skin and subcutaneous fat to reach muscle tissue directly, triggering involuntary contractions of unprecedented intensity.
During a 30-minute session, the device delivers electromagnetic pulses that stimulate muscle fibers to contract at a supramaximal level — far beyond what voluntary exercise can achieve. Each contraction recruits muscle fiber, builds strength, and improves tone. These aren't the small, controlled contractions of a workout; they're full-fiber engagement at a scale that drives visible muscle hypertrophy and definition.
For optimal results, most patients complete 4–6 treatments scheduled over 2–3 weeks, with sessions spaced 2–3 days apart. Many patients pair CoolTone with CoolSculpting — reducing fat in the area first, then toning the muscle beneath — to achieve a sculpted, defined silhouette that neither treatment alone can match.
Your Care Journey
What to Expect
Consultation
We assess your goals, evaluate treatment areas, and discuss realistic outcomes. If you're also considering CoolSculpting, we'll design a combined protocol where fat reduction and muscle toning work in concert.
Treatment Plan
Dr. Dotson designs your personalized CoolTone schedule — number of sessions, spacing, and integration with other Regenesis therapies like GLP-1 weight loss or BHRT to maximize your results.
30-Minute Session
You relax while the CoolTone handpiece delivers electromagnetic energy to your target area. There's no pain — just a rhythmic tapping sensation as your muscles contract. Most patients describe it as intense but not uncomfortable.
Series of 4–6 Treatments
Treatments are typically scheduled 2–3 days apart. You may resume all normal activity immediately after — there's no downtime. Muscle soreness is minimal compared to an intense workout. Results build progressively, with most visible improvement after the full series.

Whether you're pairing CoolTone with CoolSculpting, optimizing your body composition with GLP-1 weight loss, or building the hormonal foundation with BHRT, Dr. Dotson integrates every tool to ensure your whole-person regenerative plan delivers results that compound.
Investment in Your Definition
Understanding Your Investment
CoolTone pricing is straightforward and transparent. Below is a guide to what you can expect. Final costs depend on treatment area size, number of sessions, and whether you're combining CoolTone with other Regenesis therapies.
Consultation
Your first visit includes an assessment with Dr. Dotson, discussion of treatment areas, realistic timeline, and integration with other therapies if desired.
Per-Session Treatment
CoolTone treatments are available individually or as part of a series package. Pricing varies by treatment area and intensity.
Series Pricing (4–6 treatments)
Most patients see optimal results with a series of 4–6 treatments spaced 2–3 days apart. Series packages offer better value than individual sessions.
We'll discuss pricing and payment options during your consultation. Call us at (540) 665-4444 for current rates and to schedule your assessment.
The Regenesis Difference
CoolTone & CoolSculpting:
The Gold Standard Combination
CoolTone + CoolSculpting is the ultimate body sculpting strategy: first eliminate unwanted fat, then tone and strengthen the muscle beneath. CoolSculpting reduces stubborn fat deposits (abdomen, flanks, thighs, under the chin), while CoolTone tones and defines the underlying musculature — delivering a result neither treatment alone can match.
CoolTone also pairs seamlessly with BHRT (hormonal optimization supports muscle building and recovery) and GLP-1 weight loss (fat loss with preserved or enhanced muscle). At Regenesis Health, CoolTone isn't an isolated treatment — it's part of a whole-person regenerative plan designed to help your body reach its strongest, most defined potential.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many CoolTone sessions will I need to see results?
Most patients see noticeable improvement after 4–6 treatments, with optimal results developing progressively over the series. Each session builds on the last, strengthening and toning muscle fiber. A standard series is completed over 2–3 weeks with sessions spaced 2–3 days apart. Some patients choose maintenance treatments every 3–6 months to sustain results.
Does CoolTone hurt?
CoolTone is not painful. You'll feel a rhythmic, intense tapping and muscle contractions as the device stimulates your muscles, but most patients describe it as tolerable and even comfortable. Some experience mild muscle soreness after treatment, similar to the day after an intense workout — this is a sign that muscle fiber is being engaged and built. Soreness typically resolves within a day or two.
How long do CoolTone results last?
Results from a complete CoolTone series can last 6 months or longer, depending on your ongoing exercise, diet, and lifestyle. To maintain results, many patients schedule maintenance treatments every 3–6 months. The more you continue to exercise and stay active, the longer your CoolTone improvements will remain visible.
Who is a good candidate for CoolTone?
CoolTone works best for patients who are already relatively fit and disciplined about exercise and nutrition — and want to accelerate muscle definition they can't quite achieve on their own. It's ideal for athletes, busy professionals, and anyone seeking enhanced muscle tone without surgery or extended recovery. CoolTone is FDA-cleared for most body types, but we'll evaluate your individual goals during your consultation.
What's the difference between CoolTone and CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting reduces fat through controlled cooling; CoolTone builds and tones muscle through electromagnetic stimulation. They address different goals: CoolSculpting contours your body by eliminating stubborn fat, while CoolTone strengthens and defines muscle underneath. Used together, they deliver superior body sculpting results — fat reduction followed by muscle toning creates a sculpted, defined silhouette.
Can I work out right after a CoolTone session?
You can resume normal activity immediately after treatment — there's no downtime. However, many patients choose to rest the treated area for a day or two to allow their muscles to recover, similar to recovery after an intense workout. We recommend avoiding intense exercise on the treated area for 24–48 hours, then resuming as normal. Your muscles will continue building and toning in the days following treatment.
How does CoolTone work alongside your other treatments?
CoolTone is most powerful when paired strategically. With CoolSculpting, it delivers comprehensive body sculpting. With BHRT, hormonal optimization supports faster muscle building and recovery. With GLP-1 weight loss, fat loss is coupled with muscle preservation, amplifying your body recomposition. Dr. Dotson designs these combinations to ensure every treatment compounds the others.
