CoolSculpting®
If you can squeeze it, you can freeze it!
CoolSculpting® is a leading non-surgical fat-reduction treatment by freezing and killing fat cells, a process they call cryolipolysis. It is the one and only treatment FDA and Health Canada-approved to freeze away stubborn fat in 9 different areas of the body including:
- under chin,
- under jawline,
- flanks (“love handles”),
- abdomen
- thighs (inner, outer, distal),
- bra fat,
- upper arms,
- back fat,
- and, underneath the buttocks (the “banana rolls”).
It’s an innovative way to contour your body by freezing unwanted fat and eventually eliminating it. A single session reduces fat up to 25%. It involves no surgery and minimal expected downtime. With more than 7 million CoolSculpting® treatment cycles performed worldwide, people everywhere are getting a different view of themselves.
The CoolSculpting® Science & Technology
- Delivers precisely controlled cooling to target the fat cells underneath the skin, whilst leaving the skin itself unaffected
- Systems are controlled cooling devices designed with built-in safety measures. If sensors detect that the skin is getting too cold, the system will shut down automatically
Where Does The Fat Go?
Fat cells that are frozen during the CoolSculpting® procedure are gradually destroyed and leave the body through the body’s natural elimination process, so they won’t migrate to another area of your body – only fat reduction in treated targeted area.
* CoolSculpting® cannot substitute weight management program or treat obesity

Is It Safe?
CoolSculpting has been cleared by the FDA and Health Canada to safely and effectively treat 9 different areas of the body. Some common side effects include temporary numbness, discomfort, and swelling. Rare side effects may also occur. You should not be treated with CoolSculpting if you suffer from cryoglobulinemia, cold agglutinin disease, or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria. Please see CoolSculpting Official’s full Important Safety Information.
What are the side effects?
During the procedure you may experience sensations of pulling, tugging, mild pinching, intense cold, tingling, stinging, aching and cramping at the treatment site. These sensations may subside as the area becomes numb.
Following the procedure, typical side effects include redness, swelling, blanching, bruising, firmness, tingling, stinging, tenderness, cramping, aching, itching, skin sensitivity and numbness. Numbness can persist for up to several weeks. There may be a sensation of fullness in the back of the throat after submental treatment.

Though rare, some additional side effects such as paradoxical hyperplasia, late onset pain, freeze burn, vasovagal symptoms, subcutaneous induration, hyperpigmentation and hernia may also occur.
What is the recovery time?
The procedure is completely non-surgical, so typically you can return to normal activities almost immediately. Often, patients return to work directly after their treatment. This will vary between people and may be dependent on treatment area.
When Will I See Results?
Everyone’s unique and reacts differently to the treatment. You should start seeing changes as soon as 1-3 months post-treatment. Final results may take 6 months or more.
