CoolSculpting for Fat Loss

CoolSculpting works best in people close to their goal weight. It is not a weight loss procedure, but it can definitely reduce inches. coolsculpting works well for bumps and bulges but it is not a treatment for visceral fat. Contact a CoolSculpting provider near you for a consultation

CoolSculpting Candidate

Thank you for your question. CoolSculpting is not a weight loss solution for people who are obese, or a substitute for surgical methods such as liposuction. Good candidates have noticeable bulges in certain areas they’d like to get rid of. Your doctor will determine if treatment is right for you during a one-on-one consultation.

Coolsculpting for over weight patients

Patient selection is critical to the success of Coolsculpting. The patients that get the best results are not obese and are not excessively overweight. Coolsculpting works great to reduce fat bulges but should be done on properly selected patients.

Save your money

The results from Zeltiq in a patient such as yourself would be very minimal at best so I would suggest that you save your hard earned money and put it more toward a diet modification and exercise program where you will certainly see benefits, not just in the thighs, but over your entire body.

Coolsculpting for inner thighs

Greetings~ The results from Coolsculpting are dependent on a few factors. The areas treated should be large enough, but also pliable enough to fit into the Coolsculpting applicator well. It is not just a question of attaching to a site but also being able to get a sufficient amount of fat drawn into the chamber. Secondly, Coolsculpting has its best results with patients that have specific areas of stubborn fat and are close to their goal weight. If a patient is... more
