Dr. Cristina Arruabarrena, who holds a degree in Medicine and Surgery from the University of the Basque Country, is a member of the Spanish Society of Aesthetic Medicine and the Spanish Society of Medical Laser Surgery. At her prestigious clinic in San Sebastian, her work consists of combining different techniques so that her patients can look radiant without having to go under the knife.
“Making a correct diagnosis and having a team of professionals is essential to ensure optimal results,” the doctor says, “patients want to look good, but without those closest to them noticing that they have undergone treatment.” Therefore, she combines techniques like intense pulsed light, botulinum toxin, laser platforms, peels, thread lifts, radiofrequency, fillers, and ultrasounds.
One of the procedures that are most demanded and with found success is the Ultherapy procedure. This is a piece of medical equipment that uses high-intensity microfocused ultrasound to lift, tighten, and “compact” the skin of the patient’s face without surgery and in just a single session. Ultherapy is approved by the FDA (the Food and Drug Administration of the United States) as the only non-invasive facelift system.
The latest addition at the Arruabarrena Clinic has been CoolSculpting, a non-invasive liposuction technique that does not require surgery and permanently and painlessly eliminates localized fat from trouble areas. Using a cooling technology that eliminates fat cells in a selective way through a natural and gradual process that it does not damage the skin, CoolSculpting removes fat from the abdomen, eliminates love handles and saddlebags, and sculpts arms and double chins, among others. This technique to sculpt the body and instantly and safely get rid of inches of fat is approved by the FDA and by the European Union.
The visible results achieved by applying the most effective and innovative treatments in aesthetic medicine have made the Arruabarrena Clinic a leader in the sector, recognized as helping patients to maintain their beauty and fight against the effects of time.
