Am I a good candidate for the CoolSculpting® procedure?
The CoolSculpting® fat-reduction procedure is specially designed for those who have unwanted fat in targeted areas. Unlike weight-loss surgery (e.g. gastric bypass), the CoolSculpting® procedure is not a weight-loss solution for people who are obese. Good candidates for the CoolSculpting® cryo procedure have noticeable bulges in certain areas they’d like to get rid of. CoolSculpting® is a non-surgical alternative to liposuction.

Can the CoolSculpting® procedure reduce fat anywhere on my body?
CoolSculpting® can treat visible fat bulges in the submental area (under the chin), thigh, abdomen, and flank (love handle), along with bra fat, back fat, underneath the buttocks (also known as banana roll) and upper arm.
Create a customised treatment plan that's tailored to your body and your individual goals during your complimentary consultation. -
I don’t like my double chin. Can the CoolSculpting® procedure help me lose it?
Yes, CoolSculpting® can treat visible fat bulges under the chin. Freezing away fat from a double chin is as effective as using the CoolSculpting® procedure on other parts of the body (e.g., abdomen, flank/side, thighs). With CoolSculpting® fat freezing treatment for a double chin, patients may see results after just 2 visits.

Where does the fat go? Are the results permanent?
Did you know that the size of our fat cells may fluctuate but the number of fat cells in our body stops increasing in numbers in adolescence? CoolSculpting® reduces the number of cells in the areas treated and this number reduction is permanent. Once the treated fat cells are frozen, they are destroyed and are naturally processed and eliminated from the body.

How much will my CoolSculpting® treatment cost?
The cost of each area varies depending on the number of cycles or sessions required for your desired result.
We recommend booking a free consultation with one of our trained therapists who will give you an assessment and tailored treatment plan.
-
Does the CoolSculpting® system have safety features?
CoolSculpting® is supported by over 20 years of research and development and is FDA approved, and as the leading non-invasive fat-reduction treatment worldwide, CoolSculpting® has a well-established safety and efficacy profile. CoolSculpting® systems are controlled cooling devices designed with built-in safety measures. If sensors detect that the skin is getting too cold, the system will shut down automatically.
-
How many CoolSculpting® sessions are required before I see results?
After one CoolSculpting® session, you may start to see changes in as quickly as three weeks as your body naturally eliminates dead fat cells, but most clients notice a reduction in the fat layer within 2 to 4 months after the procedure.
The fat cells will continue to process and eliminate for up to 6 months with an expectation of a 20-25% reduction with each treatment. For this reason, identifying your treatment goals during your consultation is key.
-
What part(s) of my body can I treat with CoolSculpting®?
CoolSculpting® targets and sculpts stubborn fat in the areas that are most resistant to change. Our treatment areas consist of the upper, mid, and lower abdomen, flanks (love handles), chin, arms, inner and outer thigh, bra fat, and knees.
