CoolSculpting®

CoolSculpting® is an innovative, non-invasive body-contouring technology that freezes away stubborn fat, revealing effective and natural-looking results. The ideal CoolSculpting candidate is someone with localized fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise, seeking a non-invasive way to sculpt their body without surgery or downtime. CoolSculpting utilizes cryolipolysis—a process where extreme cold eliminates unwanted fat cells, allowing your body to naturally remove them over time. 

With visible results as early as 4 weeks and optimal outcomes at 3-4 months, this non-invasive technology is your key to conquering stubborn fat. Schedule a consultation with a trusted dermatology provider to discover how this breakthrough technique can transform your appearance without the need for surgery. Our team of expert providers are ready to help you achieve your aesthetic goals!

What to Expect at Your CoolSculpting Appointment

CoolSculpting employs a vacuum applicator placed over the targeted treatment area. Cooled to a specific temperature, the applicator freezes and eliminates unwanted fat cells. While patients may initially feel the cold, any discomfort typically subsides as the treated area becomes numb. 

CoolSculpting Maintenance Recommendations

After receiving your CoolSculpting treatment, it's recommended that you maintain a healthy lifestyle to optimize and prolong the results. While CoolSculpting reduces targeted fat cells, adopting habits like regular exercise and a balanced diet can help prevent the accumulation of new fat deposits. Staying active, eating well, and keeping hydrated not only complements the CoolSculpting results but also promotes your overall well-being, leaving you feeling and looking your best.

CoolSculpting Maintenance Schedule

The number of CoolSculpting appointments needed and the time between sessions can vary based on individual goals, the target area, and the extent of fat reduction desired. Generally, multiple sessions are required to achieve optimal results. Schedule a consultation with one of our trusted dermatology providers to create a personalized treatment plan based on your specific needs.
