• What Is Coolsculpting?

  Coolsculpting is a method of killing fat by simply freezing it. Scientists have learned that because fat prefers a warm environment when freezing it, fat dies permanently. Because so many people struggle with spot reduction of fat, Coolsculting offers a targeted treatment to rid fat in specific problem areas.

• How Does Coolsculpting Work?

  CoolSculpting attaches to the problem area(s) via different applicators. When applying CoolSculpting, these specific applicators remain on for 35-minutes to complete the treatment. During this time the fat is being frozen and subsequently killed off. When the treatment is done, a massage is peformed to break up the ice within the fat; this furthers your results by 68% and returns your treated area(s) back to normal. You may opt to treat another (adjacent area) or go back to your day.

• Is There Any Downtime After My Coolsculpting?

  No, you may return to normal activities. The treated area(s) however will feel like a deep bruise is present.
