CoolSculpting®
CoolSculpting, also known as cryolipolysis, works by targeting and reducing stubborn fat deposits in specific areas of the body through a process of controlled cooling. During a CoolSculpting treatment session, a specialized applicator is applied to the target area, such as the abdomen, flanks (love handles), thighs, or double chin. The applicator delivers controlled cooling to the treatment area, cooling the fat cells to a temperature that triggers their natural death without harming the surrounding skin or tissue. Over time, the body naturally eliminates the treated fat cells through its lymphatic system, resulting in a reduction in fat volume and improved body contouring in the treated area.
How it Works:
CoolSculpting is primarily used to treat stubborn fat deposits in specific areas of the body, including the abdomen, flanks (love handles), thighs, upper arms, back, underneath the buttocks (banana roll), and under the chin (double chin). It is suitable for individuals who have pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise and who are looking to improve their body contouring and achieve a slimmer, more sculpted appearance.
What it Treats:
CoolSculpting treats targeted areas of the body by using controlled cooling technology to freeze and destroy fat cells beneath the skin. During a treatment session, a specialized applicator is applied to the desired area, delivering precise cooling to selectively target and crystallize fat cells. Over time, the body naturally eliminates the treated fat cells through its lymphatic system, resulting in a visible reduction in fat volume and improved body contouring.
Treatment Benefits:
- Non-invasive: CoolSculpting is a non-surgical procedure, meaning there are no incisions, needles, or anesthesia required. It is a non-invasive alternative to surgical fat reduction procedures like liposuction.
- No downtime: Most patients can resume their normal activities immediately after CoolSculpting treatment, as there is typically little to no downtime associated with the procedure. This makes it a convenient option for individuals with busy lifestyles.
- Targeted fat reduction: CoolSculpting targets and reduces stubborn fat deposits in specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, and double chin. It provides targeted fat reduction and improved body contouring in the treated areas.
- Natural-looking results: CoolSculpting results in a gradual reduction in fat volume, leading to natural-looking improvements in body shape and contour. The treated fat cells are eliminated from the body naturally over time.
- Long-lasting results: Once the treated fat cells are eliminated from the body, they do not return. With proper diet and exercise, the results of CoolSculpting can be long-lasting.
- Customizable treatment: CoolSculpting treatments can be customized to target specific areas of the body and address each patient’s unique concerns and goals. Multiple treatment sessions may be recommended to achieve optimal results.
- Minimal discomfort: While patients may experience temporary sensations of cold, numbness, or tingling during the treatment, CoolSculpting is generally well-tolerated by most individuals. Pain medication or anesthesia is not required during the procedure.
