What is a CoolSculpting® Treatment?

CoolSculpting® is a non-invasive body sculpting treatment designed to eliminate stubborn fat without the need for surgery or downtime. This fat reduction procedure is the only FDA-cleared alternative to liposuction that uses controlled cooling to target and eliminate fat resistant to diet and exercise by destroying unwanted fat cells. There is no need for anesthesia, and no incisions are required. Since CoolSculpting® involves no downtime, you can easily return to your regular activities right after the treatment.

The results from CoolSculpting® are proven to be noticeable and lasting, so you’ll look and feel great from every angle.

Your journey starts with a one-on-one consultation to discuss your goals, review your health history, and map out a personalized treatment plan. This visit helps us determine whether fat reduction treatments are right for you and which areas to target for the best results.

On treatment day, we’ll apply a cooling applicator to the targeted area. You may feel intense cold or tugging at first, but most patients settle in comfortably—some even read or nap during the session. Each area takes about 35–60 minutes to treat, and many women choose to address more than one area per visit.

There’s no downtime, so you can return to your usual routine right away. Some patients experience mild swelling, numbness, or tingling, which typically fades within a few days. You’ll begin to notice changes within 3–4 weeks, with full results in about 2–3 months.
