CoolSculpting is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive procedure that uses cooling technology to gently and effectively reduce fat in problem areas of the body. Once the fat cells are removed they are permanently eliminated with every treatment. The result is a visible reduction in fat bulges, while the surrounding SKIN is left unaffected.
CoolSculpting is non-invasive and requires no needles, surgery or downtime. Most patients can resume most daily activities right after a treatment which is 3-4 hours.
It’s important to know that CoolSculpting is not a weight-reduction program. The best candidates for this procedure are people near their ideal body weight who eat well and exercise regularly, but have pockets of fat that have not responded to a healthy lifestyle.
On average, one CoolSculpting procedure results in about 20% reduction of fat in the treated areas. Patients often start seeing results in as little as three weeks post-treatment, with the most dramatic results occurring over three to four months. Some areas require more than one treatment depending on different factors.
At Dermatology Consultants, CoolSculpting is always done under the supervision of a board-certified dermatologist. Schedule a consultation by calling 651-209-1600.
CoolSculpting targets and freezes unwanted fat cells in target areas. When fat cells are exposed to extreme cold, a process of natural removal is triggered, gradually reducing the thickness of the fat layer. The result is a visible reduction in fat bulges, while the surrounding skin is left unaffected. CoolSculpting is not a treatment for weight reduction and is best for patients with pockets of stubborn fat that cannot be reduced or eliminated with a healthy diet and exercise. Although patients may see results after as little as three weeks, the effects of CoolSculpting are realized approximately 3-4 months post-treatment. Many patients require only one treatment per area and treatments last about an hour.
