CoolSculpting® uses patented controlled cooling technology that targets and kills fat cells to eliminate stubborn fat that resists all efforts through diet and exercise. Over time, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells, resulting in a more contoured body shape.
CoolSculpting® is used to treat areas of unwanted fat around flanks (love handles), thighs, arms and abdomen and upper back as well as under the chin.
Results occur gradually but are long-lasting as the damaged fat cells are permanently eliminated by your body. You may start to notice a difference after two to three weeks with optimum results occurring at two to three months.

Prior to your first treatment, your clinician will consult with you to assess your suitability for CoolSculpting® and discuss any concerns or questions you may have.
The treatment will involve your clinician applying the CoolScupting® applicator to the treatment area for approximately 30 minutes. The treatment is comfortable and requires no numbing agent. You can read, relax or nap throughout.
