How does CoolSculpting freeze away fat?
It comes down to science. Fat cells freeze at higher temperatures than surrounding tissues. CoolSculpting® technology safely delivers precisely controlled cooling to gently and effectively target the fat cells underneath the skin. The treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen), and then die. Over time, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells, leaving a more sculpted you.
You can reshape your body!
We will develop a customized CoolSculpting treatment plan that addresses your problem areas. Additional sessions may further enhance your results. Your individualized treatment plan will be tailored to your body, your goals, and your budget. On the day of treatment the device is positioned on your body and controlled cooling is applied. During your procedure, you may choose to read, check email, or even take a nap. The CoolSculpting fat freezing procedure is completely non-surgical, so you can typically return to work and normal activities immediately.
In the weeks and months following your procedure, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells. Once the treated fat cells are gone, they’re gone for good. Are you ready to love every view of you? The sooner you set up your consultation, the sooner you’ll see results in the mirror—long-term results in those areas that have resisted all efforts through diet and exercise.

Best CoolSculpting Candidates
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. The best candidates for Coolsculpting have a BMI (body mass index) of 25 or less. Patients with a BMI between 25 and 30 can still achieve results but may require more treatments.
Your CoolSculpting Experience
ANSWER: As the CoolSculpting process begins you will feel pressure and intense cold. This sensation soon dissipates as the nerves become numb from the cold. After the procedure is complete, a massage is performed to the area to achieve maximal fat reduction. This massage is sometimes painful. However, Graham Plastic Surgery offers an exclusive and unique nitrous oxide system to alleviate anxiety and pain, and make you as comfortable as possible during your treatment. Overall, the process is described by patients as “a breeze”. Many patients read, watch videos, work on their laptop, or even take a nap during their treatment. 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. We will help you create an individualized treatment plan tailored to your specific goals.
CoolSculpting Results and Recovery
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. You may start to see results 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.
