Target Stubborn Fat Deposits

CoolSculpting is a non-invasive body contouring treatment designed to target and reduce stubborn fat deposits. It applies controlled cooling to specific areas, freezing fat cells without affecting surrounding tissues. The frozen cells gradually break down and are naturally processed by your body over time. This FDA-cleared procedure helps sculpt and refine your body’s silhouette without surgery. For areas that may not respond well to diet and exercise alone, CoolSculpting can provide noticeable, longer-lasting improvements, making it a popular option for many aiming for a more toned appearance.

Coolsculpting Treatment Areas:

  • Abdomen (belly fat)
  • Flanks (love handles)
  • Thighs (inner and outer)
  • Upper arms
  • Back (bra fat)
  • Underneath the buttocks (banana roll)
  • Chin and jawline
  • Submental area (under the chin)
  • Male chest (gynecomastia)

How Does Coolsculpting Work?

CoolSculpting works through a process called cryolipolysis, which targets fat cells by applying controlled cooling. During the treatment, applicators deliver precise, targeted cooling to the fat layer beneath the skin. The cooling causes fat cells to crystallize and undergo a natural cell death process called apoptosis. Over time, the body’s lymphatic system gradually absorbs and removes these damaged fat cells. This method can reduce localized fat deposits without harming surrounding tissues, potentially resulting in a more contoured and sculpted appearance without surgery.

What Happens During the Coolsculpting Treatment

During your CoolSculpting treatment at Serotonin West End, you’ll start by discussing your goals with your practitioner. The treatment area will be marked and cleaned, and then a cooling applicator will be placed on the targeted area. You might feel a cold sensation and some suction as the fat is drawn into the applicator. The cooling process lasts about 35 to 60 minutes per area, depending on the treatment plan. Afterward, you can resume your normal activities immediately, as the procedure involves minimal to no downtime.

Side Effects and Recovery After Coolsculpting

After your CoolSculpting treatment, you may experience temporary side effects such as redness, swelling, bruising, or tingling in the treated area. These effects are generally mild and should subside within a few days to weeks. The recovery process is simple, with most people returning to their regular activities immediately. You might notice some temporary numbness or firmness in the treatment area. As there is minimal downtime, you can continue with your daily routine while the body gradually eliminates the targeted fat cells over the following weeks.

Coolsculpting Results: Onset and Longevity

Results from CoolSculpting may start to become noticeable within 3 to 4 weeks, with optimal outcomes often visible around 2 to 3 months as the body continues to process the treated fat cells. The effects can be long-lasting, especially when combined with a healthy lifestyle, balanced diet, and regular exercise. While some people may be satisfied with one session, others may find that additional treatments are needed to achieve their desired outcomes, depending on their goals and the areas treated.
