HOW DOES COOLSCULPTING WORK?
Our doctors describe CoolSculpting as a body contouring procedure that uses a process called cryolipolysis to target and remove unwanted fat on specific areas of the body. In doing this, it cools the fat down to a temperature point that damages it. Then, the body will use its lymphatic system to essentially flush out the damaged fat cells over several weeks. The results? Less fat in the treated area with noticeable results! The CoolSculpting device is used against the skin while patients relax in the treatment chair. Most patients experience a cooling sensation but find that it is well-tolerated without anesthetics. With several treatment sessions spaced weeks apart, patients can drop an entire pant size when treating the stomach and thigh area. This can be life-changing for patients who have struggled with losing weight in these specific areas and desire better contours and curves without unwanted fat present.
WHO IS A CANDIDATE FOR COOLSCULPTING?
Most adult men and women in the area who are interested in targeting unwanted fat on a specific area of the body may be considered appropriate for this treatment. CoolSculpting does require patients to be in good overall health and wellness and have realistic expectations for what can be achieved with this procedure.
