CoolSculpting

Proven Results Without Surgery

Harvard University scientists observed that some children got dimples due to eating popsicles. The idea that cold can selectively affect and eliminate fat cells without damaging the skin or surrounding tissue was the insight behind Cryolipolysis®, the proven science on which the CoolSculpting procedure is based.

The CoolSculpting procedure is the only FDA-cleared, non-surgical fat reduction treatment that uses controlled cooling to eliminate stubborn fat that resists all efforts through diet and exercise. The results are proven, noticeable, and lasting, so you’ll look great from every angle.

Freeze Away Fat?

The idea that cold can selectively affect fat led to the innovative cooling process developed by scientists at the Wellman Center for Photomedicine at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, a teaching affiliate of Harvard Medical School. 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), then die. Over time, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells, leaving a more sculpted you.

Freeze Stubborn Fat Away, Say No To Surgery

The CoolSculpting fat freezing procedure is FDA-cleared and contours the body by safely and effectively freezing away unwanted fat for good without surgery or downtime.

Sit Back, Relax and Say Goodbye to Stubborn Fat

After you and your physician select the area(s) to be treated, the device is positioned on your body and controlled cooling is applied. During your procedure, feel free to read, check email, or even take a nap.

Reshape Your Body

You can reduce fat on multiple areas of your body with the CoolSculpting procedure, and additional sessions may further enhance your results. Your provider will help you create an individualized treatment plan tailored just for you.

After Your CoolSculpting Session

The CoolSculpting fat freezing procedure is completely non-surgical, so you can typically return to normal activities immediately.

Get Used To Liking What You See

In the weeks and months to follow, your body naturally processes and eliminates the treated fat cells. Once the fat cells are gone, they’re gone for good.

The Cause of Cellulite

The appearance of cellulite is caused by a layer of fibrous connective tissue that adheres the skin to the muscle beneath it. AS the bands of connective tissue contract and stiffen with age, they pull down the skin more.

At the same time, increasing fat stores push outward in the surrounding areas. These factors result in an unappealing landscape of dimples and bulges. As we get older, the outer layer of skin weakens, thins, and loses elasticity. Gravity takes its toll, and the skin begins to sag. The appearance of cellulite continues to worsen with age.

The Treatment of Cellulite

Our physicians and medical staff are pleased to provide non-invasive options for the treatment of cellulite and fat. Cellulite and circumferential reduction is an area of continued interest to the medical staff, its growing patient base, and the field of aesthetics.
