WHAT IS COOLSCULPTING?

CoolSculpting is a non-invasive treatment that reduces body fat and tightens up loose skin. CoolSculpting uses a fat-freezing process called cryolipolysis that works by freezing fat cells, killing and breaking them down in the process. The idea first came into play when scientists were looking into what happens to the body during frostbite. What they came to realize is that fat freezes faster and at a higher temperature than skin. Cryolipolysis protects your skin and tissue during the treatment while the fat is freezing off. CoolSculpting is a safe and effective service that will destroy up to 25% of fat cells.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR TREATMENT?

The day of your treatment one of our specialized Aestheticians will get you prepped by placing gel applicators into the area of concern, and once you’re comfortable we will get your treatment started! Two paddles are placed in the designated area and between 35 minutes to 1 hour the paddles will increasingly get cold while suctioning and this is when 25% of the fat is freezing. This treatment does not hurt at most you will feel some pulling from the suctioning part of the treatment which may be uncomfortable for some. After you have completed your session, the Aesthetician will massage out the area to break down the frozen deep tissue. This will also allow your body to absorb the broken down fat cells.

 

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER YOUR TREATMENT?

After your treatment there is little to no recovery time so you can jump right back into your regular routine. Some may experience some minimal redness or soreness, but this should subside in just a few days or hours. Results are not instant, but as your body begins to flush out the fat cells, you will notice during a course of 2-3 months the treated area will appear thinner and sculpted. The number of sessions will vary based on your goals and the person but it is recommended to get at least a series of 6 treatments to achieve the best results.

 

HOW TO MAINTAIN RESULTS FOR LONG-TERM

If you’re past the age where your metabolism can no longer keep up the same way it did in your 20s, then results will require a balance of a healthy lifestyle. With the assistance of CoolSculpting sessions, eating healthy, and exercising regularly, we can guarantee that you will maintain those amazing results! The best part of CoolSculpting is the results are permanent, so those fat cells that were frozen off and flushed out won’t come back.
