CoolSculpting®

CoolSculpting® uses a process called cryolipolysis to cool small amounts of fat in the thighs, lower back, belly and sides to a freezing temperature. While not as effective a treatment for obesity, CoolSculpting® can help reduce stubborn fat not easily shed by normal diet and exercise. During a CoolSculpting® treatment, the area to be targeted is held between two paddles for anywhere between 30 minutes to 1 ½ hours. During this time, the paddles cool quickly, freezing and destroying between 20 to 25% of the fat cells in the area. Final results are not noticeable until several months after the procedure, during which time the body filters and excreets the dead fat cells through the liver.
