What Is CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that uses controlled cooling technology to reduce fat cells in specific areas of the body. It is an FDA-approved procedure that targets stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. During the procedure, a device is applied to the targeted area, freezing the fat cells beneath the skin. Fat cells freeze at a higher temperature than other tissues, allowing for targeted destruction of fat cells without damage to surrounding tissue. Over time, the body naturally eliminates the destroyed fat cells through its lymphatic system.

Frequently Asked Questions

What areas can CoolSculpting treat?

CoolSculpting can be used to target localized pockets of fat in areas such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, back, and under the chin. The appropriate treatment areas depend on your anatomy and the areas of fat you would like to address.

How many CoolSculpting treatments will I need?

The number of treatments varies depending on the treatment area, amount of fat, and your individual goals. Some patients may achieve their desired improvement with one session, while others may benefit from additional treatments.

What does CoolSculpting feel like?

During treatment, you may initially feel intense cold, pulling, tugging, or pressure as the applicator is positioned on the treatment area. These sensations typically become less noticeable as the area becomes numb.

How soon will I see CoolSculpting results?

Results develop gradually as the body processes the treated fat cells. Some patients begin noticing changes within several weeks, with further improvement occurring over the following months.

Can the fat treated with CoolSculpting come back?

The fat cells affected by CoolSculpting are permanently eliminated from the treated area. However, the remaining fat cells can increase in size with significant weight gain, which may affect your overall body contour.

Can CoolSculpting be used on the face?

Certain CoolSculpting applicators are designed for smaller treatment areas, including the submental region beneath the chin. During a consultation, your provider can determine whether CoolSculpting is appropriate for the specific area you want to treat.
