What is CoolSculpting | CoolSculpting Manhattan, New York

CoolSculpting – scientifically known as cryolipolysis – is essentially a procedure to freeze (and thereby kill), fat cells. Here’s how the FDA-approved treatment works: An applicator applies suction to the area you want to target. The applicator then applies carefully regulated cooling plates to bring fat cells down to a temperature at which they are irreversibly damaged. For most areas, the process takes about 35 minutes. After the deep-freeze damage to the fat cells, they die and are eliminated by the body. Most people start to see results after a few weeks with the final effects revealed in three months.

Over 7 million treatments have been performed worldwide

The world’s #1 non-invasive fat reduction procedure

With Coolsculpting, it is now possible to reduce stubborn fat pockets and improve body contours without surgery, scars or downtime. Ideal candidates for Coolsculpting are those who are relatively fit, are close to their ideal body weight but have some modest-size fat bulges that are not easily reduced through diet and exercise. Working out and watching your weight is an important part of staying fit, but you can’t control where fat is deposited on your body when you gain weight. Coolsculpting is a spot reduction procedure, which can eliminate those areas with stubborn fat, helping to reshape your body by freezing unwanted fatty deposits beneath the skin (think love handles and belly fat).

How CoolSculpting Works

Nature, lifestyle, or gravity – no matter the culprit, many of us have bulges of stubborn fat

Unwanted bulges contain fat cells which can be resistant to diet, but not to CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting uses controlled cooling to target and crystallise fat cells

Crystallised fat cells gradually die off, then are naturally eliminated from your body

In the weeks and months following treatment, remaining fat cells condense and reduce

CoolSculpting lets you say goodbye to stubborn fat. Now that’s cool!

Losing weight vs losing fat

Reducing fat is not the same as losing weight. It’s all about what happens to fat CELLS. The number of fat cells in our bodies typically becomes a fixed number sometime in our teenage years. Losing or gaining weight generally does not increase or decrease the number of fat cells. Instead, it changes the size of fat cells. When we lose weight, we don’t actually lose fat cells, the fat cells that we already have simply shrink. Same principal applies to gaining weight, we’re just making the fat cells we already have larger.

Losing weight makes fat cells smaller but does not make fat cells go away

Most people can identify with losing weight but still having that left over pocket of fat. This could be because your body has more fat cells in that particular area and even when they shrink, you still have a bulge. With Coolsculpting the fat cells are killed and eliminated from the body.*

We all have stubborn areas of fat that just won’t respond to time at the gym, and don’t even respond as much as we wish to weight loss. Working out and watching your weight is an important part of staying fit, but you can’t control where on your body your fat is deposited when you gain weight, or from where on your body it leaves when you lose weight. After dieting and weight loss, fat cells get smaller but the number of fat cells stays the same. When weight is gained, fat cells get bigger. CoolSculpting fat-freezing procedure actually reduces the number of fat cells in treated areas by about 20% to 25%. These fat cells are naturally processed and eliminated, so they won’t migrate to another area of your body. And, unlike what happens with other procedures, there’s no change to fat cells in untreated areas.

Here’s another simply way to look at on how the difference between losing WEIGHT vs losing FAT.

Am I a good candidate?

Good candidates have noticeable bulges in certain areas they’d like to get rid of. The CoolSculpting fat reduction procedure is specifically designed for those who have unwanted fat that resists diet and exercise. Unlike gastric bypass surgery, the CoolSculpting procedure is not a weight loss solution for people who are obese. It is, however a non-surgical alternative to liposuction. Request a one-on-one consultation with us to determine if the CoolSculpting procedure is right for you. ** Results and patient experience may vary.

How much does the CoolSculpting procedure cost?

The price for CoolSculpting procedures varies depending on your areas of concern, the number of sessions needed, and your ultimate goals. We will help create a customized treatment plan, in person, that’s tailored to your body, your goals, and your budget. ** Results and patient experience may vary.

How long is each session? How many sessions will I need?

We will help you create an individualized treatment plan tailored to your specific goals. The length of your CoolSculpting session will vary depending on the number of areas being treated during one visit. We may schedule additional sessions in order to meet your goals. ** Results and patient experience may vary.

Where does the fat go? Are the results permanent?

Once the treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen), your body processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells. Once the treated fat cells are gone, they’re gone for good. ** Results and patient experience may vary.

What does it feel like?

As the cooling begins during the first few minutes, you will feel pressure and intense cold. This soon dissipates. Many people read, watch videos, work on their laptop, or even take a nap during their treatment. ** Results and patient experience may vary.

Is the CoolSculpting procedure safe?

The CoolSculpting procedure is FDA-cleared for the flank (love handles), abdomen, and thigh. With over one million CoolSculpting treatments performed worldwide, it is proven to be a safe and effective treatment for non-surgical fat reduction. ** Results and patient experience may vary.

Are there any side effects?

During the procedure you may experience deep pulling, tugging, pinching, numbness or discomfort. Following the procedure, typical side effects include temporary numbness, redness, swelling, bruising, firmness, tingling, stinging and pain. Rare side effects may also occur. The CoolSculpting procedure is not for everyone. You should not have the CoolSculpting procedure if you suffer from cryoglobulinemia or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria. The CoolSculpting procedure is not a treatment for obesity. As with any medical procedure, ask us if the CoolSculpting procedure is right for you. ** Results and patient experience may vary.

Can I return to normal activities after my treatment?

Yes, you can. The CoolSculpting procedure is completely non-surgical, so typically you can return to normal activities immediately. Often times, patients return to work after their CoolSculpting session is over. ** Results and patient experience may vary.

When will I see results?

You may start to see changes as quickly as three weeks after your treatment, and will experience the most dramatic results after two months. But your body will still flush out fat cells and continues doing so for up to four to six months after treatment. ** Results and patient experience may vary.

Do I need to take special supplements or follow a strict diet and exercise program?

No supplements or pills are required and you do not have to adopt new diet and exercise habits. Many patients feel more motivated to take care of themselves after their CoolSculpting treatment. It is as if they get a second lease on their body and want to start anew again by taking even better care of themselves. ** Results and patient experience may vary.

What happens if I gain weight down the road?

Many people, after seeing the results from their CoolSculpting procedure, take even better care of themselves. However, if you do gain weight, you may gain it evenly all over your body, not just in the treated areas. ** Results and patient experience may vary.
