CoolSculpting®: What is it?
Understanding Coolsculpting
CoolSculpting uses a controlled cooling technology to reduce fat in targeted areas of your body. Based on a process called Cryolipolysis™, it is approved by the FDA as a non-invasive method of removing fat from areas of the midsection, such as bra line fat, “love handles” or a “muffin top.” CoolSculpting gently and effectively freezes the targeted fat cells, which your body then gradually eliminates through its natural metabolic processes.
In contrast to surgical procedures such as liposuction in Omaha, NE, CoolSculpting® requires no needles or incisions. The fat cells are eliminated by your body over time, providing you with a safe, gradual fat reduction. The final results are visible in most patients in 2 to 4 months.

CoolSculpting: Areas That Can Be Treated
Your Coolsculpting procedure
During your CoolSculpting procedure, you can relax, listen to music or even read a book. CoolSculpting® uses a specially designed device, which draws up the targeted tissue between two cooling panels, freezing the fat with only minimal discomfort.
The time needed for your procedure will depend on the areas targeted. For example, for upper and lower abdomen treatments, a 2-hour session may be necessary. With this non-invasive technology, there is no need for anesthetic or recovery time. You can return to your regular routine immediately after the procedure. In about 3 days, as your fat cells begin to respond, you might experience mild soreness. Any mild redness or bruising should be gone within a few days.
Enjoying your results
You will gradually notice that your clothes fit more loosely and your body looks slimmer. Results typically start to appear about 4 weeks after your treatment, with full benefits becoming visible in 3 to 4 months. In some cases, after several months, patients may seek additional treatment.
CoolSculpting® usually reduces the fat in the treated area by about 25%. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle with proper diet and exercise will help ensure that your great new look lasts.
