What to Expect During and After a Fat Freezing (CoolSculpting®) Treatment

The unique CoolSculpting® fat-freezing technology is a nonsurgical, scientifically proven way to reduce pockets of fat in trouble spots such as the abdomen, flanks, or under the chin in as little as one session.

“Fat cells are more sensitive to cold than our skin and muscles. After 10 years of research, CoolSculpting® came up with the precise temperature to kill a fat cell.”

What To Expect During CoolSculpting® Treatment

Treatment times may vary depending on what part of your body you want to be treated. Treatments can take as little as 35 minutes per treatment area, allowing enough time for a quick show or to take a snooze before you head back to work.

During the procedure you may experience sensations of pulling, tugging, mild pinching, intense cold, tingling, stinging, aching, and cramping at the treatment site. These sensations subside as the area becomes numb.

Many practices offer the opportunity to have multiple areas treated in a single day! The CoolSculpting® procedure is FDA-cleared to treat visible fat bulges in the

abdomen and flank areas, thigh, bra fat, back fat, upper arm, underneath the buttocks (banana roll), under the chin (submental), and under the jawline (submandibular) areas. What area(s) would you have treated?

What to Expect After CoolSculpting® Treatment

CoolSculpting® is an FDA-cleared, safe, and effective way to reduce fat by delivering precisely controlled cooling to gently and effectively target the fat cells underneath the skin, a process known as cryolipolysis. Treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen), then die.

After your CoolSculpting® treatment, your body naturally processes and eliminates the dead fat cells in the treated area! Remember, CoolSculpting® is not a weight loss procedure, but a nonsurgical way of reducing the fat in those stubborn areas that may be resistant to diet and exercise.

After a CoolSculpting® treatment, patients can expect up to 20%-25% reduction of fat in the treated area, but it is important to remember that CoolSculpting® is NOT a weight-loss procedure.

Following the procedure, typical side effects include temporary redness, swelling, blanching, bruising, firmness, tingling, stinging, tenderness, cramping, aching, itching, or skin sensitivity, and sensation of fullness in the back of the throat after submental or submandibular area treatment.

How Long Does it Take to See Results from a CoolSculpting® Treatment?

Results may be seen as early as 1 to 3 months after treatment. Many patients opt in for multiple CoolSculpting® treatments in multiple areas to reach their body sculpting goals. Check out some before and after pictures of real CoolSculpting® patients to see some COOL results!

How Much Does CoolSculpting® Cost?

Since the CoolSculpting® procedure is so personal, there are many factors that determine the cost of treatment! Once a treatment plan has been decided with your provider, you will have a better idea of how many treatments you need and how many different areas you want treated.

These factors will determine the price of your CoolSculpting® transformation along with your geographic location and your chosen practice. The best way to determine the price for your treatment plan is to get an in-person consultation with a Coolsculpting clinic in Dubai.
