CoolSculpting in San Diego

Fat Freezing Technology

With proven science and real results, CoolSculpting’s fat-freezing technology gives long-term results that make trouble spots a lot less troublesome. From a scientific perspective, fat cells do not like the cold and at a specific temperature they will freeze. Once that happens, your body will naturally eliminate the dead cells in 1 to 3 months or more, resulting in up to 20%-25% reduction of fat in each treated area.

The CoolSculpting® procedure is FDA-cleared for the treatment of visible fat bulges under the chin and jawline areas, thigh, abdomen and flank, along with bra fat, back fat, areas underneath the buttocks as well as the upper arm. It is also FDA-cleared to affect the appearance of lax tissue with submental area treatments.

For individuals with healthy eating habits and an active lifestyle, that are ready to take the next step, cryolipolysis is a safe and effective way to reduce excess fat.

However, CoolSculpting® is not a weight loss treatment. CoolSculpting® is for clients at or near their ideal body weight who are looking to reduce fat in one or more of the 9-FDA cleared treatment areas.

Additional Safety Information

Each patient should tell your doctor if you have any medical conditions including recent surgery, pre-existing hernia, and any known sensitivities or allergies. During the procedure you may experience sensations of pulling, tugging, mild pinching, intense cold, tingling, stinging, aching, as well as cramping at the treatment site. These sensations will subside when the area becomes numb. Following the procedure, typical side effects include temporary redness, tingling, swelling, bruising, stinging, tenderness, cramping, itching, or skin sensitivity, including sensation of fullness in the back of the throat after submental or submandibular area treatment.
