CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting is a noninvasive fat reduction treatment that uses controlled cooling to target and freeze stubborn fat cells. Over time, your body naturally eliminates the treated fat, leaving a smoother, more contoured appearance without surgery or downtime.

The device targets areas of fat beneath the skin. Fat cells are more sensitive to cold than surrounding tissues, so they are safely destroyed while the skin and other tissues remain unharmed. Your body gradually processes and eliminates the treated fat over several weeks.

CoolSculpting can be used on many common problem areas, including the abdomen, love handles, thighs, arms, double chin, back, and bra fat. During your consultation, we’ll help you determine which areas are best suited for treatment.

Most patients feel some pulling, tugging, or mild pressure during the procedure, along with brief cold sensations. These feelings usually subside as the area becomes numb, and most people find the treatment very tolerable.

Treatment times vary depending on the area being treated, but most sessions take 35 to 60 minutes. Many patients use the time to relax, read, or even catch up on emails!

CoolSculpting results appear gradually as your body processes and eliminates the treated fat. Most patients start to notice changes within 3 weeks, with optimal results visible after 2 to 3 months.

The number of treatments depends on your goals and the area being treated. Some patients achieve desired results with a single session, while others benefit from multiple treatments for more dramatic contouring. Your provider will create a customized plan for you.

One of the advantages of CoolSculpting is minimal downtime. Most patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment. Some may experience temporary redness, swelling, tingling, or bruising in the treated area, which typically resolves within a few days or weeks.

Yes! As long as you maintain your weight. The fat cells that CoolSculpting removes are permanently destroyed. However, the fat cells that remain can still expand in size if you gain weight. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle with proper diet and exercise helps ensure your results endure over time.

Absolutely! CoolSculpting works best when you’re already close to your ideal weight, so if you’re still on your weight loss journey, our medical weight loss program can help.

We also offer Styku 3D body imaging that we use for our CoolSculpting and weight loss patients. The Styku scanner offers a comprehensive body shape analysis, assesses your body composition (i.e. fat versus lean body mass), and supports you in achieving your body composition goals by calculating your daily caloric expenditure and the maximum caloric intake needed to meet your targets.
