CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting near me

CoolSculpting, also known as cryolipolysis, is a noninvasive body sculpting technique that targets unwanted fat with cold temperatures. Cryolipolysis is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It applies cold temperatures to pockets of fat hiding under the skin in targeted areas of the body. The skin and other surrounding tissues are unscathed by the cold. Prolonged exposure to the freezing temperatures will kill the fat cells. They are then broken down by the body and eventually flushed out through the lymphatic system. Once removed, these cells should not reappear.

Common target areas:

Truth be told, CoolSculpting can be used almost anywhere on the body. Some of the most common trouble areas where CoolSculpting can be most effective include: 

  • abdomen,
  • arms,
  • bra and back fat,
  • double chin,
  • flanks,
  • thighs and
  • underneath the buttocks (aka banana roll)

Time of Treatment:

  • One treatment session can take between 30 and 60 minutes depending on the size of the area, the depth of the fat and other factors.
  • In the vast majority of cases, there is little to no downtime. Most people return to their normal activities right away.
  • More than one treatment  is usually required to achieve optimal results.
