What Is Coolsculpting®?

Coolsculpting® involves utilizing advanced technology to safely deliver a controlled, precise cooling effect to specific regions of the body in order to target fat cells that lurk beneath the surface of the skin. The fat cells will then crystallize and die. Over the course of time, the patient’s body will naturally process fat and eliminate dead cells. The end result is a leaner, more sculpted physique. This fat-freezing procedure is FDA-approved for the flank, thigh, and abdomen. It also involves no surgery or downtime.

How the Procedure Works

Once we determine which region(s) will be treated, the medical device is then positioned on the body. Throughout the application of the controlled cooling, you’ll be free to check email, nap, read a book, etc. The Coolsculpting® procedure enables you to reduce fat on several regions of your body. To optimize the process, you may be interested in attaining additional results. Your treatment plan will be customized to ensure that it helps you attain the specific effect you want.

Fat Reduction vs. Weight Loss

In thinking about the value of Coolsculpting® and how it can assist you, it’s important to note that fat reduction and weight loss are not the same thing. When people lose weight, their fat cells shrink. However, their number of fat cells is the same. When an individual gains weight, the fat cells grow larger again. In the event that an individual opts to attain a Coolsculpting® procedure, the number of fat cells in targeted regions will be reduced. These fat cells are no longer present, meaning that they cannot grow larger. In short, the Coolsculpting® procedure results are lasting because the fat cells have been permanently eliminated.

Side Effects

Throughout the procedure, patients may experience deep pinching, tugging, numbness, pulling, or discomfort. After the procedure is completed, the most common side effects include stinging, tingling, firmness, bruising, swelling, redness, pain, and numbness. There are also other rare side effects.

The Coolsculpting® procedure is not an ideal solution for everyone. For example, Coolsculpting® is not intended as a weight loss solution. Candidates choosing this treatment should be in good health and close to their ideal weight. Coolsculpting® works best for those who lead a healthy lifestyle, but still have areas of stubborn body fat that have been resistant to diet and exercise.
