CoolSculpting
Freeze and Eliminate Fat
The CoolSculpting procedure safely delivers precisely controlled cooling to gently and effectively target the fat cells underneath the skin. Treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen), then die. Over time, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells, leaving a more sculpted you.
Years ago, scientists at Harvard University observed that some children who ate popsicles got dimples in their cheeks. The scientists—Dieter Manstein, MD, and R. Rox Anderson, MD—realized that the popsicles were freezing and eliminating small pockets of fat cells.
The idea that cold can target fat cells—without damaging the skin or surrounding tissue—was the insight behind cryolipolysis, the proven science on which the CoolSculpting procedure is based.
What Is CoolSculpting?
SHAPE WHAT YOU SEE WITHOUT SURGERY OR DOWNTIME
The CoolSculpting fat-freezing procedure is the only FDA-cleared,*non-surgical fat-reduction treatment that uses controlled cooling to eliminate stubborn fat that resists all efforts through diet and exercise. The results are proven, noticeable, and lasting—so you’ll look great from every angle.
How Does CoolSculpting Work?
Cool Sculpting Freezes & Eliminates Stubborn Fat
CoolSculpting Freezes and eliminates Stubborn Fat. This procedure safely delivers controlled cooling to gently and effectively target the fat cells underneath the skin. Treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen) and die. Over time, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells, leaving a more sculpted you.
Fat Elimination After the CoolSculpting Procedure
Fat cells frozen during the CoolSculpting procedure gradually die off and leave the body through the body’s natural elimination process. That’s why the results are long-term—the fat is gone for good! Untreated areas will have no change in fat cell distribution.
What To Expect
During Your First Visit
You’ll meet with a CoolSculpting clinician during a one-on-one consultation. This person could be a doctor or another medical professional with specialized training in CoolSculpting.
Your CoolSculpting clinician will take the time to discuss a holistic approach to your goals for reshaping your body. Together, you’ll look at your whole body from different angles—and then focus on specific areas where you want to eliminate fat.
Treatment Day
During your treatment, a gel pad and applicator will be applied to the targeted area. The CoolSculpting applicator delivers controlled cooling to the targeted fat. Feel free to read, check your email, or even nap during your procedure.
After Your Treatment
Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the CoolSculpting procedure.
While some patients may see results as early as 3 weeks after their first treatment, the most dramatic results are usually seen between 1 and 3 months following treatment.
