What is CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting, also known as Cryolipolysis, is a nonsurgical fat reduction treatment that eliminates stubborn fat from problem areas like your abdomen. It works by applying cold to targeted areas to freeze fat cells beneath the skin’s surface. Once these fat cells freeze, they break down and your body naturally expels them, giving you a more sculpted look.
A major benefit of CoolSculpting is that it removes fat cells without causing harm to surrounding tissues, nerves, or skin. This is because fat freezes and dies at At 39°F while other tissues are only affected at a cooler temperature. This precise cooling technology makes it possible to effectively reduce fat without scarring, needles, or a long recovery process.
As we get older, our bodies tend to hold on to fat, making it difficult to shed it through diet and exercise alone. CoolSculpting helps address this by tackling those stubborn pockets of fat that resist traditional weight loss efforts.
CoolSculpting Benefits
CoolSculpting procedures are effortlessly painless and range from as little as 30-90 minutes. Fat freezing consistently yields permanent results and creates visible improvements to the shape and size of the face and body. Patients can rely on an individualized treatment plan to enjoy a natural-looking contour. CoolSculpting has become a viable alternative to invasive surgical treatments such as liposuction, which presents considerable drawbacks and health risks.
Aside from quickness and convenience, CoolSculpting poses little to no probability of post-op hindrances to daily activities. Practitioners position Cryolipolysis above other fat-reduction techniques due to its effectiveness and low-risk factor.

How Long Will Results Last?
CoolScultping results are long-lasting because the treated fat cells are permanently removed. Cryolipolysis eliminates the existence of fat cells, and your body isn’t going to try to replace what’s been removed.
However, CoolSculpting doesn’t stop new fat cells from forming. Gaining weight can lead to new fat deposits, even in areas that have been treated before. To keep your results, it’s important to maintain a healthy and active lifestyle.
CoolSculpting Cost & Pricing Structure
The cost of CoolSculpting treatments depends on the treatment area(s), amount of excess fat, and the number of sessions required for desired results. Larger body parts such as the lower abdomen will require multiple sessions, and smaller regions below the chin typically require only one. Some other factors that may influence cost include your provider and location.
- US Average: $800-$4,000
- Company Average: $750-$1,500
- Additional Costs: There are no additional costs
- Insurance: Most insurance companies do not cover cosmetic procedures. We offer a variety of payment options for your convenience.

How CoolSculpting Works
Before the first CoolSculpting session, an experienced practitioner will schedule a consultation to determine the treatment objectives and create an individualized plan. Although this non-invasive procedure requires little to no preparation, some standard operations must occur before the first session begins.
Before & Preparation
- Avoiding anti-inflammatories before treatment will lessen the chances of post-op bruising.
- Wear loose, comfortable clothing.
- Patients can expect their treatment to last anywhere from 1 to 3 hours.
- A CoolSculpting practitioner will measure the target areas.
- A practitioner will note the amount of existing fat.
- Your practitioner will create an individualized treatment plan.
During the Procedure
- Your practitioner may take photos to compare visible changes.
- A practitioner will apply a gel pad and application tool to the area of focus.
- Temperatures ranging from 39 to 41 degrees Fahrenheit will be applied to the skin’s surface above fat stores.
- The temperature application tool will glide along the skin while performing a suction that works to destroy fat cells.
- Immediately following treatment, the practitioner should massage the treated area for at least 2 minutes.
Aftercare & Recovery
- Patients are typically free of needing recovery time after a CoolSculpting session.
- Normal daily activities may resume as soon as patients leave the office.
- Avoid clothing that could irritate the skin in the event the patient is experiencing superficial discomfort.

Am I a Good Candidate?
CoolSculpting is an excellent option for those who fall within 30lbs of their desired weight. This treatment is not a weight-loss solution or alternative to a healthy diet and active lifestyle. Instead, it helps refine and sculpt the body by targeting stubborn fat that lingers despite healthy habits.
Patients should not rely on this procedure to eliminate excess visceral fat. CoolSculpting is for spot-treating areas that resist diet and exercise. Women considering CoolSculpting should wait until they’re done having kids because pregnancy-related weight changes can affect your results.
If you have Cryoglobulinemia, Cold urticaria, Paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria, Raynaud’s phenomenon, or a hernia should avoid cryolipolysis. Generally, you should avoid treating areas with varicose veins, nerve problems, rashes, lesions, poor blood flow, and scars.
