CoolSculpting® is a fat reduction treatment that targets and permanently destroys stubborn areas of fat. Results are permanent, proven, and noticeable.
What is it?
CoolSculpting® is a fat-freezing, non-surgical procedure for reducing unwanted body fat. By using controlled cooling, it targets stubborn fat resistant to traditional methods like diet and exercise. This is a non-invasive and convenient option for patients who want to target areas with stubborn pockets of fat on the chin, abdomen, upper arms or love handles, and delivers lasting results without the painful recovery of treatments like liposuction.
What to expect
CoolSculpting® is the brand name for a procedure called Cryolipolysis, a non-surgical procedure that doesn't involve needles. During the procedure, your Mountain State practioner utilizes a device with two paddles to hold the targeted area of your body. The paddles then rapidly cool the area, leaving them in position for approximately 35 minutes-1 hour. During this period, around 20%-25% of the fat cells in the targeted area are destroyed. While the final results may take a few months to become noticeable, you may begin seeing changes within a few weeks. Over time, your immune system continues to gradually eliminate the dead fat cells.
