Unwanted fat is a struggle for so many people. Even with diet and exercise, stubborn fat can still be an issue, but it doesn’t have to be that way with CoolSculpting. The minimally invasive, nonsurgical procedure can eliminate fat in no time and leave you with the sculpted body you’ve always wanted. Let’s take a look at what exactly CoolSculpting is and how it can benefit you.
What is CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting is an FDA-approved procedure that removes pockets of fat from certain areas of the body. It uses intense cold to freeze the fat cells, resulting in the cells dying and the body naturally eliminating them over time. Clinical studies show that patients can lose an average of 23% of fat within three months.
What are the Benefits of CoolSculpting?
Some of the benefits you can expect with CoolSculpting include:
- Minimally invasive
- Very little downtime
- Safe to use on all types of skin
- Can be used on many areas of the body
- Freezes fat cells and removes them permanently
- Treatments are safe and quick
- Results look natural
What Happens During The CoolSculpting Process?
The CoolSculpting treatment starts when the applicator is placed on the treatment area. You will feel a cooling or slight numbing sensation along with mild suction. No pain or discomfort is felt during the procedure. The entire process takes anywhere between 35-65 minutes depending on how many areas are being treated or the size of the area. In most cases, two to three treatments are needed to attain optimal results. Every person who undergoes CoolSculpting treatment at iGlow receives a personalized treatment plan.
What Areas Are Safely Treated By CoolSculpting?
The following areas are successfully treated by CoolSculpting:
- Area beneath the chin (submental)
- Area under jawline (submandibular)
- Abdomen
- Flanks
- Back
- Upper arm
- Area beneath buttocks
- Thigh area
What Happens After The CoolSculpting Procedure?
Unlike more invasive surgeries, CoolSculpting does not require significant downtime. You can return to work or home immediately. Many people get the procedure done during their lunch break and go right back to work with no problem. You will want to avoid heavy lifting and strenuous activity for the first 3-4 days. You’ll also want to avoid smoking. Your provider will give you specific aftercare instructions. Make sure to follow them to achieve the best results.
After treatment, you may experience some minor bruising, swelling, or tenderness. But in most cases, it diminishes after a few days.
You can expect to see initial results within a couple of weeks, with full results showing up in six to eight weeks after your final treatment session. The results are permanent. While fat can form in other areas of the body, it cannot return to the treatment area.
