FAQs

If you have questions about CoolSculpting®, we’re here to help. Here are the answers to some common queries.

What will the results be?

Patients often ask whether or not Coolsculpting® will help them lose stubborn weight. We are happy to report that many patients are satisfied after one treatment. However, during your consultation, we can discuss a treatment plan that will meet your specific treatment needs.

What happens during the treatment?

To initiate the treatment we will position the device on your body. The device will then draw the bulge up between two cooling panels. The sensation is a firm pull and pressure – enough of a pull to ensure the selected tissue will be cooled most efficiently. An hour or so later, depending on your needs, you’re done.

Can I return to normal to normal activities after the procedure?

CoolSculpting® is completely non-surgical, so typically you can return to normal activities immediately. Some patients experience redness, minor bruising, tingling, numbness or discomfort in the treated area, but this is temporary and will resolve completely. Often times, patients return to work after the session is over.

When will I see results?

You may find that you start to lose stubborn weight as quickly as three weeks after your treatment, and will experience the most dramatic results after one to three months. Your body is still flushing fat cells and will continue doing so for up to four to six months after treatment.

Are the results permanent?

CoolSculpting® results are lasting, as long as you maintain your healthy lifestyle. The fat cells that are eliminated from CoolSculpting® do not return.
