Understanding Fat Reduction With CoolSculpting

Experts say that fat reduction with CoolSculpting is a non-invasive shaping procedure that involves the stubborn fat being frozen and then naturally broken down by the body. As a result, in the weeks and months after treatment, the corresponding fatty areas are gradually reduced without surgery. This treatment allows not only the hips, belly, back, and thighs to be reshaped, but also the annoying “love handles.”

Mostly there is a genetic predisposition to these fatty deposits, whereby the person’s fat cannot be decreased by exercise and dieting. Thanks to CoolSculpting, which returns the body back to a normal shape, targeting the fat cells is easier than ever.

Advantages

  • No spraying
  • No special diet
  • No dietary supplements
  • No surgery
  • No use of scalpels, liposuction cannulas, or needles
  • The skin remains intact

After the treatment, patients can resume their normal activity immediately. And better yet, there is a short or possibly no recovery time.

How does the treatment work?

A non-invasive applicator is placed on the skin to precisely and controllably cool the fat cells at certain parts of the body until they are frozen. Then they are destroyed by massaging the area. As fat reacts more sensitively to cold, neither the surrounding tissue nor the muscles are affected.

In the following weeks, the body will naturally begin to eliminate the dead fat cells, resulting in a general reduction of the fat layer. Some side effects can occur like nerve pain, sensory disturbances (which then disappear), and hematomas (also called bruising). After the treatment, you must wait about two weeks to exercise or play sports.

How many treatments are necessary?

In most cases, the person will see a reduction in adipose tissue after their treatment. However, they may wish for further reductions requiring additional treatments. The patient will feel a slight pulling and intense cold in the beginning, but these side effects soon subside.

After the treatment, you may feel slight irritation of the treated areas. This is a normal reaction, so you do not have to worry. After a few hours or days, it disappears. Remember that CoolSculpting is the most convenient and efficient method of fat removal.
