What is CoolSculpting®?

CoolSculpting® is a groundbreaking, FDA-cleared treatment designed to target and eliminate stubborn fat without invasive surgery. Utilizing precise cooling technology, it focuses on resistant fat cells beneath the skin, breaking them down without affecting the surrounding tissues.

Unlike traditional liposuction, CoolSculpting® is non-invasive. It freezes the fat cells in specific areas, which your body then naturally processes and eliminates. CoolSculpting® isn't a weight reduction plan. Instead, it effectively treats problem areas like the tummy, hips, thighs, bra-line, arms, and double chin resistant to diet and exercise.

Upon treatment, fat cells will become frozen, and in time, they will gradually shrink. As these fat cells diminish, the treated area will progressively compress, slimming down the treatment area, which can result in up to 20-25% reduction of stubborn fat in the treated area. Results may be seen as early as 1- 3 months after treatment, with full results taking 6 months or more.

CoolSculpting® Treatment Areas
CoolSculpting® can be used to treat the following areas as per FDA guidelines:

Under the jawline, Under the chin, The upper arms, Back fat, Bra fat, The flank area (love handles), Abdomen, Thighs, Under the buttocks (banana roll)

You're receiving top-notch care by choosing Impressions Face + Body for CoolSculpting®.

Your CoolSculpting® Consultation

At Impressions, your journey starts with understanding and collaboration. During your consultation, our dedicated team will engage in a comprehensive discussion about your unique beauty aspirations. The initial step involves crafting a personalized treatment plan tailored to pinpoint the specific fat cells that align with your desired outcome.

This plan identifies the targeted areas and provides insight into the required treatment sessions. Factors include the size of the designated area and whether multiple regions are in focus. Together, we'll ensure your aesthetic excellence path is clear and empowering.

How to Prepare for CoolSculpting®

Preparing for non-surgical treatments like CoolSculpting® is a breeze. To ensure the best possible outcome, we recommend our patients avoid excessive sun exposure before their session. On the day of the procedure, avoid applying lotions or creams to the targeted area. Our experts might also suggest refraining from certain medications, such as aspirin, to minimize potential post-treatment bruising.

During Your CoolSculpting® Procedure

CoolSculpting® is a quick and painless outpatient procedure, eliminating the need for anesthesia. The process begins with placing the CoolSculpting® applicator over targeted regions, such as the abdomen, hips, and flanks.

Once activated, the device gently draws the unwanted fat into its chamber. Inside, the temperatures drop significantly, marking the beginning of the end for the exposed fat cells. With a treatment duration of 35-60 minutes, you can expect the permanent removal of 20-25% of these cells in the treatment area. As they break down, their contents are safely released and naturally processed by the body without impacting cardiovascular health or cholesterol levels.

CoolSculpting® Aftercare & Recovery Timeline

Once your treatment is complete, you can return to your regular daily routine. The treated area might look red or slightly swollen, but this is normal and will disappear within a few hours. To maximize and sustain the treatment results, it's advisable to maintain a balanced diet and regular exercise. Patients may require multiple treatments spaced 6-8 weeks apart.

Am I a Good Candidate for CoolSculpting®?

CoolSculpting® is an empowering step forward for those 18 years and older who have dedicated themselves to diet and exercise yet find certain areas resistant to their efforts. If you're striving for finer body contouring and wish to sidestep the intricacies of surgery, CoolSculpting® might just be your perfect match.

While this treatment is not a solution for obesity, it is exceptionally effective for those seeking targeted fat reduction in specific problem areas. It's essential to understand that CoolSculpting® excels at sculpting and refining rather than significant weight loss.

CoolSculpting® Benefits

CoolSculpting® stands tall in the world of aesthetic treatments, as it delivers many advantages that resonate with those keen on refining their silhouette. Beyond just reducing fat, CoolSculpting® elevates your body’s natural contours, bidding farewell to those pesky, resilient fat pockets. Backed by scientific research and FDA clearance, CoolSculpting® is effective and maintains the highest safety standards. Leveraging cutting-edge technology, the treatment ensures utmost precision and efficacy without a single incision. With CoolSculpting®, you can immediately resume your daily activities. This isn't just a temporary fix. The results of CoolSculpting® are long-lasting as the fat cells, once eliminated, they don't make a comeback with proper maintenance.
How cold is CoolSculpting®?
The CoolSculpting® procedure uses a precise temperature range between 12.2°F and 19.4°F to effectively damage fat cells without causing frostbite or harm to the skin or surrounding tissues.
Is CoolSculpting® painful?
Although patients may initially feel an intense cold, this sensation usually subsides as the area becomes numb. After the procedure, the treated area is massaged, which might cause tingling or discomfort as it warms up. Our patients typically read or watch movies while they receive treatment.
Are there any CoolSculpting® Risks?
Rare side effects may happen in 1 to 10 out of 10,000 CoolSculpting® treatments (between 0.01% to 0.1%). One such rare side effect is a visible enlargement in the treated area, which may develop 2 to 5 months after treatment, will not resolve on its own, and may require surgical intervention for correction.
How many CoolSculpting® treatments are needed?
The number of CoolSculpting® treatments required depends on the treatment area and individual body contouring goals, which will be discussed during the initial consultation.
How long do CoolSculpting® results last?
As CoolSculpting® kills these fat cells, the treatment lasts indefinitely. However, proper maintenance of the treatment, along with a healthy diet and exercise, must be maintained.
