What is CoolSculpting?

The CoolSculpting procedure eliminates stubborn fat safely and effectively, without surgery or downtime. This fat reduction treatment is the only FDA-cleared procedure to use controlled cooling to safely target and eliminate diet- and exercise-resistant fat. CoolSculpting results are proven, noticeable, and lasting, so you’ll look and feel great from every angle.

Freeze away fat? It comes down to science. Fat cells freeze at higher temperatures than surrounding tissues. CoolSculpting technology safely delivers precisely controlled cooling to gently and effectively target the fat cells underneath the skin. The treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen), and then die. Over time, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells, leaving a more sculpted you.

Procedure Description

It is Completely Non-Surgical

The CoolSculpting fat freezing procedure is completely non-surgical, so you can typically return to work and normal activities immediately.

You will like what you see. In the weeks and months following your procedure, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells. Once the treated fat cells are gone, they’re gone for good.

The concept behind CoolSculpting was discovered by accident. Two Harvard scientists were researching kids eating popsicles and the formation of dimples in their cheeks. They found that the cold from the popsicles was freezing the fat. The result was the formation of dimples, which only occur in the absence of fat. They researched further and found that fat cells freeze and die at a higher temperature than other tissue cells. The result was CoolSculpting.

In a CoolSculpting session, the patient sits in our angled treatment chair and the CoolSculpting panels are positioned over the treatment area. The panels apply light suction that draws the skin, underlying tissue, and fat up between the two cooling panels. The temperature is set to the freezing point of the fat cells, and the CoolSculpting panels deliver the cooling down into the skin and tissue. The fat cells freeze and the body begins the process of eliminating them. As the session progresses, we repeat this process several times across the treatment area. A total session takes from one to three hours, depending on the size of the treatment area. CoolSculpting crystallizes and kills from 20 to 25 percent of the fat cells in the treated area.

Recovery Process

The general recovery process from a CoolSculpting procedure is typically very mild, with few side effects. Patients may experience some redness, swelling, bruising, and sensitivity in the treated area immediately following the treatment, but these typically subside within a few days to a few weeks. Some patients may also experience mild discomfort or numbness in the treated area, but this is usually temporary and resolves on its own within a few days. It is important to follow any post-treatment instructions provided by the esthetician, including avoiding strenuous activities or exercise and using gentle skincare products. Patients may begin to see results within a few weeks to a few months following the treatment, as the frozen fat cells gradually die off and are naturally eliminated by the body. Multiple sessions may be needed to achieve optimal results, and it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle and diet to help maintain the benefits of the treatment over time. A qualified provider can provide personalized guidance on the expected recovery process and any potential side effects based on the patient's individual needs and goals.

Patients can expect to see gradual and natural-looking results following CoolSculpting treatment. The timeline of results can vary based on individual factors such as the size and location of the treatment area, the number of treatments performed, and the patient's overall health and lifestyle. Typically, patients begin to see visible improvements in the treated area within a few weeks to a few months following treatment, as the frozen fat cells are gradually eliminated by the body. Optimal results can be seen within several months of the initial treatment, with some patients continuing to see improvements for up to six months following the procedure. The number of treatments needed can also vary based on individual factors, with some patients achieving their desired results with just one treatment while others may require multiple treatments to achieve their goals. A qualified provider can help determine the best treatment plan based on the patient's individual needs and goals.
