What is CoolSculpting? CoolSculpting is a breakthrough, non-invasive procedure that uses cooling technology to noticeably eliminate fat without surgery. How much does CoolSculpting cost? How many treatments will I need? The price for CoolSculpting varies depending on your areas of concern, the number of treatments needed, and your ultimate goals. We will assess you in person to help estimate the cost. Typically, you’ll see a noticeable reduction of fat in the treated area after one visit, but you may appreciate even more fat reduction with additional CoolSculpting treatments. What will the results be? A reduction in the amount of fat in the treatment area.. What happens during the treatment? To initiate CoolSculpting, we will position the device on your body. The device will then draw the bulge up between 2 cooling panels. The sensation is a very firm pull and quite a bit of pressure—enough of a pull to ensure the selected tissue will be cooled most efficiently. The device then slowly lowers the temperature, freezing the fat cells and numbing the area. After about an hour, you’re done! Can I return to normal activities after the procedure? CoolSculpting is completely non-surgical, so typically you can return to normal activities immediately. Some patients experience redness, minor bruising, tingling, cramping, numbness or discomfort in the treated area, but this is temporary and will resolve completely. Often times, patients return to work after the session is over. When will I see results? You may start to see changes as quickly as 3 weeks after your CoolSculpting treatment, and will experience the most dramatic results after 1-3 months. Your body will continue to clear and metabolize the broken down fat cells for up to 4-6 months after treatment. Are the results permanent? During CoolSculpting, the treated fat cells are eliminated. As long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle, long-term results should remain stable. |
