CoolSculpting 101
CoolSculpting is a non-surgical body contouring procedure that freezes away fat using cryolipolysis technology. The specific technology delivers a controlled cooling, focusing only on destroying unwanted fat cells and leaving the skin above unaffected. The body naturally gets rid of the frozen fat cells after the treatment is performed. The procedure is safe and effective with minimal discomfort and noticeable results. More than 7 million CoolSculpting procedures have been performed worldwide.
Know what to Expect
CoolSculpting has been FDA cleared for nine treatment areas, including the abdomen, upper arms, flanks/sides, double chins, inner thighs, and outer thighs. The procedure typically takes one hour per area and is virtually pain-free. A gel pad applicator is applied to the area and the cooling starts immediately, with the cool feeling subsiding after 5-10 minutes. Most patients are able to read a book, watch television or take a nap during their treatment.
Little to no Downtime
CoolSculpting is an excellent alternative to surgery. The procedure is very popular among both men and women with busy schedules, as there is little to no downtime required. Once the procedure is completed patients are able to return to their normal everyday activities.
Feel Good in your Skin
CoolSculpting gives men and women the power to feel more comfortable in their own skin. The procedure is most effective on patients who are at or close to their ideal weight, but who have stubborn pockets of fat that don’t go away with diet and exercise. As with all body contouring procedures, the best results are seen in combination with a healthy lifestyle. Patients may see results as early as three weeks after their first treatment, with full results three months after their final treatment.*
