CoolSculpting is not a weight loss solution for people who have more than 75 lbs. to loose, or a substitute for surgical methods such as liposuction. Good candidates have noticeable bulges in certain areas they’d like to get rid of. Your practitioner will determine if treatment is right for you during a one-on-one consultation.

You first select the area(s) to be treated. Your technician will position the device on your body. The device will then draw the bulge up between two cooling panels. The sensation is a firm pull and pressure – enough of a pull to ensure the selected tissue will be cooled most efficiently. An hour or so later, depending on your needs, you’re done.

The price for CoolSculpting varies, depending on your areas of concern, the number of treatments needed and your ultimate goals. Your practitioner would need to assess you in person to help estimate the cost. 

We wrote this handy guide to help get a good estimate on what CoolSculpting could cost for you. 

As the cooling begins during the first few minutes, you will feel pressure and intense cold. This soon dissipates. Many people read, work on their laptop, or even take a nap during their treatment.

CoolSculpting® is FDA-cleared for the flanks (love handles) and abdomen and is proven to be a safe and effective treatment. Typically, there is minimal to no downtime after the treatment though patients may experience temporary pain or discomfort. Side effects can include redness, bruising, swelling, tenderness to the touch, cramping, itching, tingling, and numbness. Numbness can persist up to several weeks after a procedure. Your practitioner can talk to you more about what to expect during and after treatment when you meet for your consultation.

During your consultation, your practitioner will discuss how much time should be allotted based on your individual treatment plan. A typical treatment can last between one and three hours.

Yes you can! The procedure is completely non-surgical, so typically you can return to normal activities immediately. Some patients experience redness, minor bruising, tingling, 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.

You may start to see changes as quickly as three weeks after your treatment, and will experience the most dramatic results after two months. But your body will still flush out fat cells and continues doing so for up to four to six months after treatment.

When you have your CoolSculpting treatment, the affected fat cells will be eliminated. As long as you maintain your weight with your normal diet and exercise, your long-term results should remain stable.

Many people, after seeing the results from their CoolSculpting procedure, take even better care of themselves. However, if you gain weight after your procedure, remaining fat cells may enlarge as they absorb excess fat.
