Freeze Away Fat

CoolSculpting is an innovative, non-invasive fat reduction treatment designed to contour your body by freezing unwanted fat away without surgery or downtime. This FDA-approved procedure, offered right at an APDerm location near you, targets stubborn fat cells in specific areas, providing a smoother and more sculpted appearance.

What Is CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting utilizes a process known as cryolipolysis, which involves controlled cooling to freeze and destroy fat cells. The body then naturally processes and eliminates these treated fat cells over time. The result is a noticeable and long-lasting reduction in fat in the treated areas.

How It Works

The CoolSculpting procedure is based on scientific research demonstrating that fat cells are more susceptible to cold temperatures than surrounding tissues. During the treatment, a specialized applicator delivers precise cooling to target the fat cells beneath the skin. As the fat cells freeze, they undergo apoptosis, or cell death, and are gradually eliminated through the body’s natural metabolic processes.

Benefits of CoolSculpting

  • No needles, surgery, or downtime required
  • FDA-approved and clinically proven to reduce fat in treated areas
  • Treatments typically take 35-60 minutes, allowing you to return to your daily activities immediately
  • Targets multiple areas, including the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, and chin
  • Once the fat cells are eliminated, they are gone for good, provided you maintain a healthy lifestyle

How Do I Know if CoolSculpting Is Right for Me?

CoolSculpting may be an excellent option if the following is true for you:

  • You have noticeable bulges in specific areas that you’d like to eliminate
  • You are at or near your ideal weight but struggle with stubborn fat pockets
  • You prefer a non-surgical solution with minimal downtime

It’s important to note that CoolSculpting is not a weight-loss solution. Ideal candidates are those seeking to reduce localized fat deposits rather than overall body weight. During your consultation with an APDerm clinician, we will assess your areas of concern, discuss your goals, determine if CoolSculpting is the right treatment for you, and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.

What to Expect From a CoolSculpting Treatment

On the day of your treatment, the targeted area will be marked, and a gel pad will be applied to protect your skin. The CoolSculpting applicator will then be positioned on the area, and controlled cooling will be delivered. You may experience intense cold initially, but this sensation typically subsides as the area becomes numb.

CoolSculpting Aftercare

After the procedure, you can resume your normal activities right away. Temporary side effects such as redness, swelling, bruising, or sensitivity in the treated area may occur, but these usually resolve within a few days to a few weeks.

Results may start to appear as early as three weeks post-treatment, with the most noticeable improvements seen after two to three months. Your body will continue to eliminate fat cells for up to six months following the procedure.
