Freeze Away Stubborn Fat—No Surgery, No Downtime
CoolSculpting® is a revolutionary, non-invasive fat reduction treatment designed to target and eliminate stubborn fat pockets that resist diet and exercise. Using FDA-cleared cryolipolysis technology, CoolSculpting® safely freezes and destroys fat cells, offering body contouring without incisions, anesthesia, or recovery time.
This popular treatment is ideal for patients looking for a natural, gradual fat reduction process that delivers long-lasting results with zero downtime.
Am I a Candidate for CoolSculpting®?
CoolSculpting® is best suited for men and women who are at or near their ideal weight but struggle with localized fat deposits. These stubborn areas don’t respond to traditional weight loss methods and are often located in areas such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs.
It is not intended for weight loss or obesity treatment and is not recommended for individuals with the following conditions:
-
Cryoglobulinemia
-
Cold agglutinin disease
-
Paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria (PCH)
Patients with certain medical histories should consult with our specialists to determine eligibility.
How Is CoolSculpting® Performed?
CoolSculpting® utilizes a technology called cryolipolysis, which applies controlled cooling to fat cells beneath the skin. This cooling crystallizes the fat, leading to apoptosis (natural cell death). Over time, the body naturally processes and eliminates these fat cells through the lymphatic system.
The procedure involves the placement of a cooling applicator over the targeted fat bulge. Sessions typically last 35 to 60 minutes per area, depending on the size and location being treated.
CoolSculpting® is commonly used to target:
-
Abdomen
-
Flanks (love handles)
-
Upper arms
-
Thighs
-
Submental area (double chin)
-
Bra line
-
Underneath the buttocks (banana roll)
What Is Recovery Like After CoolSculpting®?
CoolSculpting® requires no downtime. Patients can resume normal daily activities immediately following their session.
Some individuals may experience mild:
-
Redness
-
Tenderness
-
Swelling
-
Temporary numbness
These effects typically subside within a few days and do not require special treatment.
What Results Can I Expect from CoolSculpting®?
CoolSculpting® provides a gradual fat reduction of up to 25% in the treated area. Results begin to appear as early as three weeks, with final results visible after two to three months.
Because the destroyed fat cells are naturally eliminated by the body and do not regenerate, results can be long-lasting if a healthy lifestyle is maintained.
Most patients require multiple sessions to achieve their desired contour and report high satisfaction with the outcome.
