CoolSculpting is a revolutionary new fat removal technology, developed by Harvard scientists, CoolSculpting freezes unwanted fat so it is naturally eliminated from your body. There are no incisions, needles, anesthesia, recovery and there’s no downtime!
FDA-cleared, CoolSculpting is ideal for pinch-an-inch and muffin-top bulges as well as love handles, abdomen, thighs, and all unwanted bulges of extra fat.
Ideal candidates for CoolSculpting fat removal treatment are relatively close to their ideal body weight. CoolSculpting is not a weight-loss solution, nor does it replace surgical procedures like liposuction or tummy tucks.
In your private consultation with Dr. Kole, the number of CoolSculpting treatments will be determined to maximize your results. Typically, four to ten CoolSculpting treatments are recommended. Each treatment takes one hour. These treatments may be done all at once, or broken up over time for the patient’s convenience.
During the procedure, the CoolSculpting device is attached to the treatment area via gentle suction. The skin is protected with a gel pad. The suction then draws the unwanted fat and skin into the applicator head. The CoolSculpting machine will then painlessly cool that area for one hour. Patients relax, read or watch TV using our netflix account during their sessions and can return to their unrestricted activities immediately afterward.
CoolSculpting of the love handles before and after
Over the next several weeks, the body absorbs the crystallized frozen fat cells and naturally eliminates them, giving visible results to those areas starting about the third week. Healthy skin, muscle and nerve cells in the treated area will be unaffected.
Patients may experience some minor discomfort such as temporary redness, minor tingling, numbness or slight bruising immediately after treatment, but all are temporary and resolve completely within a few days.
Ultimately, it takes up to three months to realize the full effect of your CoolSculpting because your body naturally removes the damaged fat cells over time. You’ll look and feel better about yourself once fat cell are eliminated, they never return. Your long-term results should be permanent.
