CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting is a fat reduction treatment as a non-surgical procedure. The process involves targeting and eliminating unwanted fat cells in your body through controlled cooling. created by Harvard scientists to maintain the optimal levels of cell composition, the concept revolves around the fact that fat cells require a much higher temperature than the surrounding cells to freeze up. Cryolipolysis (the fat-freezing science behind CoolSculpting) crystallizes the treated fat cells causing them to die without any harm to the surrounding skin or tissues. Your body’s normal metabolism processes the frozen fat cells to eliminate them in a few months eventually.
A Healthy Lifestyle is a Session Away
With the busy work and personal lives that everyone has, it is challenging to keep up with your bodily changes. The frustrating pockets of fat are difficult to lose, especially when you’re resistant to a consistent diet and regular exercise. CoolSculpting works as an effective solution to contour specific areas such as
- Abdomen (Including Love Handles and Muffin Tops)
- Inner and Outer Thighs
- Upper Back Area (Bra Bulge)
- Submental (below the chin) Fat
Thanks to ColdSculpting, the body naturally processes and eliminates these fat cells without damaging your body
No Downtime. No Recovery. All Smiles.
ColdSculpting is a direct process that can be completed after assessing the areas of your body that need to be treated. Treatments can take about one hour per area, during which a gel pad and applicator deliver the cooling required to freeze the fat. Nothing apart from some slight pulling and mild pinching is experienced at the start of the process. These too subside as the treatment progresses. As there is no use of incisions, invasions or anaesthesia thereby eliminating any recovery time, leaving you to return to your normal life as a rejuvenated self.
Immediate Results that your Body Likes
ColdSculpting treats your body almost immediately, with results being visible in less than three weeks. The more dramatic transformations can be noticed in the next two months as the body begins to get rid of all the dead fat cells. All the excess fat is flushed out at the six-month mark. Over 20 to 25 per cent fat can be reduced through the process. While only two treatments may provide you with great outcomes, many benefit from additional procedures as they go forward.
Proven Safe by Scientific Literature
Apart from the innumerable before and after photos, patient testimonials and satisfied clientele, ColdSculpting has been proven to be safe and efficient by many academic journals.
- ‘Cryolipolysis was shown to reduce subcutaneous fat at the treatment site by up to 25% after one treatment.’
- A study of 518 Cool Sculpting patients
- ‘No significant side effects or adverse events were reported.’
- ‘96% of patients agreed the treatment was tolerable and not painful.’
- ‘82% of patients would recommend [Cool Sculpting] to a friend.

How common is the ColdSculpting procedure?
Over 10 million treatments have been successfully completed globally. With no major restrictions or requirements, anyone can have ColdSculpting done.
What happens to my frozen fat cells?
The frozen fat cells are killed during the process of cryolipolysis by putting them through the freezing temperature. The body then goes about removing these dead cells as it does with any of the waste products. Your lymphatic systems take care of the cleanup, breaking down and flushing off the unwanted fat from the body over a period of the next few weeks. Since the entire procedure works around the natural metabolism of your system, no other muscles, tissues, or cells are even remotely affected post the treatment.
What are the side effects of ColdSculpting? Is it safe for everyone?
The FDA has cleared CoolSculpting to treat and reduce nine diverse areas of the body effectively. Extensive clinical trials have demonstrated CoolSculpting is one of the safest processes to eliminate body fat. The entire procedure is done without any needles and little to no downtime. The non-invasive treatment makes it easy for everyone to go for the treatment.
After a ColdSculpting session, patients sometimes experience slight swelling, redness, skin sensitivity and bruising due to the intense cold delivered during the procedure. These matters usually pass within a few days or a week at the most. In some extremely rare cases, pain, severe numbing, and bloating along the areas of contact with the cooling panels has been noticed.
Who is a good candidate for CoolSculpting?
Contrary to common perception, CoolSculpting is not a weight-loss procedure. It simply targets and removes unwanted pockets of isolated fat. The catch is that CoolSculpting patients must be within 10 per cent of their ideal body weight to qualify for the procedure. There aren’t any other restrictions in place. The only patients strictly advised against CoolSculpting are those suffering from cold agglutinin disease, cryoglobulinemia, or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria.
Is CoolSculpting painful?
There is no kind of pain felt during the sensation due to the extreme temperatures that your cells are exposed to. Although, you might feel a pulling sensation as the suction from the cooling panels draws in your tissues. You’ll only feel intense cooling once the treatment is completed, which most people don’t describe as painful. From thereon, the treated area goes numb as the sensation passes. The simplicity of the procedure allows you to read a book, watch There is no kind of pain felt during the sensation due to the extreme temperatures that your cells are exposed to.

The simplicity of the procedure allows you to read a book, watch a video or even take a nap without any inconvenience during the entire treatment.
Is there any kind of preparation necessary before a CoolSculpting session?
No preps are necessary before a CoolSculpting session. No recovery is needed either. This is what makes CoolSculpting an on-demand, go-to procedure.
Will I need any more CoolSculpting treatments in the future?
A quarter of the fat cells are effectively removed during your first ColdSculpting session. These cells are gone for good and won’t be coming back. You see, our body has a set number of fat cells that expand and shrink with our weight gain or loss. With the cells gone permanently, there is no scenario of returning to the pre-treatment numbers. Nevertheless, you can choose to further slim the area with subsequent treatments. Although, it is important to note that these would not give the same 20 to 25 per cent reductions. More often, once patients see their body after having CoolSculpting on a single area, they choose to have it used on additional body parts in the future.
