About CoolSculpting

When you gain weight, the cells swell. Once the weight is lost, the fat cells shrink. For many people, the fat cells in certain areas remain swollen or are vast in number making some unsightly bulges exercise- or diet-resistant. We use CoolSculpting in San Francicso as a revolutionary, non-invasive, non-surgical cosmetic procedure that reduces stubborn pockets of fat on the body. For those who are looking for subtle body-contouring and sculpting without the risks of invasive liposuction, CoolSculpting is the best option.

CoolSculpting has been FDA-cleared to reduce the number of fat cells in the abdomen, flanks, back, bra line, under the chin, along the jawline, upper arms, thighs, and under the buttocks. FDA-clearance demonstrates that CoolSculpting is a safe and effective fat reduction treatment. While liposuction leads to the most immediate and noticeable results when it comes to fat reduction, CoolSculpting is an excellent alternative for those who do not wish to undergo surgery.

CoolSculpting Procedure

The CoolSculpting device, designed by Zeltiq Aesthetics, Inc., has a variety of applicators which are used to target specific areas of the body (i.e. love handles, stomach, saddlebags, bra rolls, inner thighs, under the chin, etc.) Once the applicator is placed on the treatment area, the applicator adheres to your skin with a light suction. The cooling panels within the applicator then slowly reduce the temperature of the fat to just above freezing. The overlying skin is left unharmed during the 30 to 60-minute procedure.

During this time, you can sit or lie comfortably as you read or enjoy Netflix on one of our iPads. You may experience slight tugging, pulling, pinching, coldness, and cramping at the treatment site. Despite this mild discomfort, the procedure is generally painless. At the end of your CoolSculpting session in San Francisco, the applicator will be removed from your skin. Your specialist will gently massage the area to help break up the fat deposits. This will aid the fat reduction process, encouraging the body to remove the destroyed fat cells, quickly.

CoolSculpting Preparation

Because CoolSculpting is a non-invasive procedure, there is less preparation needed than with surgical approaches to fat reduction. In fact, there may be no preparation needed! Once you are deemed an appropriate candidate for CoolSculpting, you will just need to show up for your sessions!

How Does CoolSculpting Work?

Cryolipolysis is the process that makes CoolSculpting possible.

Building on the knowledge that fat cells freeze at a higher temperature than skin cells, CoolSculpting involves lowering the temperature of the fat cells in the targeted area to just above freezing. The carefully measured cooling process targets only the fat cells and avoids any damage to the skin cells and surrounding structures. The cold temperatures destroy the fat cells and they are naturally eliminated from the body through the lymphatic system over the following 8 weeks.

CoolSculpting Results

The results you receive from CoolSculpting are long-lasting. Because the targeted fat is eliminated from the body, there is little chance of the fat cells returning to the treatment area!

You may begin to see results from your session in as little as 3 weeks. Over the 8 weeks following the procedure, your body will slowly rid itself of the fat cells frozen by CoolSculpting. Studies show an average of 20%-25% fat reduction in the treatment area after each cycle. You can expect your treatment area(s) to be slimmer, contoured, and more proportionate to your frame.

Many of our patients report enhanced confidence as they feel more comfortable with their bodies.

Alternative Procedures

CoolSculpting is an excellent solution to eliminate unwanted fat in 9 areas of the body. However, there are certain limitations to body contouring with CoolSculpting. Liposuction is the surgical removal of fat under the skin. The plastic surgeon working with you will ensure the appropriate anesthetic is administered to keep you comfortable during the procedure.

Then he will take a long, hollow tube, called a cannula, and gently guide it just under the skin and into the fat. The cannula will vacuum the fat cells out of the body, strategically contouring the treatment area. Results from Liposuction are immediately apparent, but because it is a surgical procedure, you will experience swelling and soreness at the treatment site and will experience significant downtime after surgery.
