CoolSculpting

What is CoolSculpting

The Coolsculpting Elite is an FDA approved device for non-surgical, non-invasive body contouring. This device uses cooling technology to eliminate stubborn fat from many areas on the body: abdomen, inner and outer thighs, upper arm, chin, back fat, flanks. If you can PINCH it, we can FREEZE it!

Who is a candidate for CoolSculpting

If you have stubborn, pinchable fat that is resistant to diet and exercise, you may be a good candidate for Coolsculpting. Best candidates are in good overall health and near to their ideal weight. 

What to Expect at your CoolSculpting Appointment

Before the procedure we will go over your medical history and review safety information with you. 

During the procedure you may experience sensations of pulling, tugging, mild pinching, intense cold, tingling, stinging, aching, and cramping at the treatment site. These sensations subside as the area becomes numb. 

How long does a Coolsculpting treatment take? 

A CoolSculpting® treatment typically takes as little as 35-75 minutes, depending on the area treated, with treatment sessions lasting 1-3 hours on average. For most patients, two or more treatment sessions are recommended to help reach their body contouring goals.

What are the benefits of CoolSculpting? 

  • No surgical incision is required, which means there is no risk of infection. 
  • CoolSculpting results in little downtime, most people can resume their normal daily activities immediately after treatment. 
  • There is no damage to nerve fibers, blood vessels, muscles, or lasting damaging to skin in the treatment area.
  • The fat loss is permanent! After the procedure, your body naturally clears the frozen fat cells within weeks. Most patients see results within 3 months, and the fat cell density never comes back.
