Does CoolSculpting Actually Work?

6/9/2017

A Fat Freezing Solution

Whether it be due to the fact that we are in the middle of bikini season, or the fact that finding the time to diet and exercise in our busy lives can be exhausting, more and more people are searching for non-surgical body contouring solutions. Look no further, CoolSculpting is a terrific solution!

Coolsculpting is the process of freezing stubborn fat on the body and gradually reducing it. Your doctor will use a special applicator and gel pad, which suctions to your body, to perform the treatment. This applicator then delivers controlled cooling to the targeted fat area, crystallizing the fat cells until they die. These fat cells are naturally processed from your body.

The CoolSculpting  procedure can be used to contour specific areas of the body and reduce fat in areas like the:

  • Flanks (love handles)
  • Abdominal fat (muffin top)
  • Bra-line fat
  • Inner thighs
  • Outer thighs (saddlebags)
  • Posterior thighs
  • Chin

While this may seem too good to be true, many people are left asking: Does CoolSculpting actually work? And the answer is yes!

CoolSculpting in AtlantaCoolSculpting was approved by the FDA in 2010 and has since provided results for thousands of people. While it may not help you lose a ridiculous amount of numbers off the scale, it can leave you one to two sizes smaller. Most patients notice a total fat reduction of 25 percent in the targeted area, but multiple sessions are needed in order to achieve this.

As with any type of cosmetic procedure, it is vital that you continue to maintain your body weight and diet and exercise regularly to see the most optimal results from CoolSculpting.
