If you’ve been exercising and dieting but still can’t lose that last little bit of unwanted fat, you’re probably looking for a new solution. But not everyone wants to have surgical liposuction. CoolSculpting® is a non-surgical body contouring treatment that can help you achieve your goals without downtime. 

WHAT IS COOLSCULPTING® BODY CONTOURING?

CoolSculpting® is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared cosmetic procedure that eliminates unwanted fat through controlled cooling. This treatment is a popular alternative to traditional liposuction, as it does not require surgery or any downtime. The idea of body contouring treatments like CoolSculpting® isn’t to help you lose weight but to remove small amounts of persistent fat so you can enjoy a slimmer, more contoured body.

CoolSculpting® can be used to target stubborn pockets of fat in areas such as:

  • Abdomen
  • Thighs
  • Arms
  • Back
  • Flanks (love handles)
  • Bra rolls
  • Buttocks
  • Double chin

HOW DOES COOLSCULPTING® WORK?

The first step of a body contouring treatment is a consultation with Dr. Stile and his team to discuss your goals and assess your areas of concern. Once we’ve outlined your treatment areas, we’ll use a specialized applicator to deliver controlled cooling to the targeted area. 

This cooling process targets and freezes the fat cells, crystallizing them. You’ll feel an intense cold sensation at first until the area goes numb. The treatment may take anywhere from 30 minutes to over an hour, depending on the amount of fat being treated. Over the following weeks and months, your body will naturally eliminate the damaged fat cells, reducing fat in the treated area. 

BENEFITS OF COOLSCULPTING®

Unlike liposuction or other surgical procedures, there are no incisions, anesthesia, or lengthy recovery periods with CoolSculpting®. Patients can typically return to regular activities immediately after treatment without downtime. Some people may experience mild discomfort or temporary numbness in the treated area, but this usually subsides within a few days. 

Another benefit of CoolSculpting® is that results can often be seen relatively quickly. Many people start seeing a noticeable fat reduction within just a few weeks of their treatment. Over time, the results become even more apparent as the body continues to eliminate the dead fat cells. 

The results of CoolSculpting® can be long-lasting, provided that patients maintain a healthy lifestyle. After the treated fat cells are eliminated, they are gone permanently. However, it’s important to note that CoolSculpting® is not a weight-loss solution or a substitute for a healthy lifestyle. While the fat cells in the treated area won’t return, weight gain can cause the remaining cells to expand. 

AM I A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR COOLSCULPTING®?

CoolSculpting® can be a great option for anyone looking to eliminate stubborn pockets of fat in specific areas of the body. Good candidates for CoolSculpting® are at or near their ideal weight and have already adopted a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet.
