CoolSculpting

The Coolsculpting procedure is the only FDA Cleared, non-surgical fat-reduction treatment that uses controlled cooling to eliminate stubborn fat cells. There are a lot of other "knock off" cooling treatments out there that haven't been cleared by the FDA. 
 
I would proceed with extreme caution when considering other treatments that have not been cleared or approved by the FDA. Especially when you are talking about your body. Cooling to temperatures so cold (-11 Celsius) can be very dangerous if not done correctly with the correct equipment. The Coolsculpting technology is a controlled cooling environment and is very smart. If the temperature is too cold, the machine knows and aborts the treatment. If the temperature is too warm the machine knows and aborts the treatment. This doesn't happen very often but when it does our specialist can check the area being treated and check the machine for any issues. Most patients can still have the treatment done after this, but might have to wait. I don't know if the other cooling machines do this and haven't seen any studies done with them. This is why we decided on Coolsculpting in our practice. There is safety in numbers and Coolsculpting has done the most known cryolipolysis treatments to date. 
 
Just be careful, it's the only body you have! Good luck!!!

Hello, I am looking into the various fat freezing treatments available but there are so many machines on the market and the treatment prices vary considerably. I have already had Coolsculpting before and I believe it works very well. However, because it's not cheap, I was considering having cryolipolysis with a non-Coolsculpting device. Though I am a bit skeptical because I had fat freezing with these machines before and it didn't seem to work. Your advice is appreciated. Thanks Karine

Is CoolSculpting the only fat freezing treatment that works?

You honestly sound the like the perfect candidate for Coolsculpting! Those stubborn fat pockets that we can't get rid of through diet and exercise are tough. That is the number one complaint from our Coolsculpting patients in our practice and they are very happy with their results after Coolsculpting.
 
It is hard to say by looking at the picture because in order to assess for Coolsculpting we need to squeeze the area to be treated. However, your skin tone looks great and you look like a good candidate from the picture alone. The best thing to do is get a free consultation. Most clinics that offer Coolsculpting offer free consultations as well. If you are not a good candidate they will tell you.
 
Good luck!

I’ve always had an awkward pocket of fat i cannot lose through diet or exercise. Im wondering what would be a better option for me coolscultping, lipo, bbl? I wouldn’t mind increasing my butt/hip size but i do lift weights and don’t want anything unnatural looking. What would be most beneficial for me?

This is a very common question. &nbsp;Coolsculpting &nbsp;is such&nbsp;an amazing treatment and unique&nbsp;because it has no downtime or restrictions. Doing cardio is has no contraindications with Coolsculpting and is to your comfort level. If something doesn't feel good after your treatment, then don't do it!&nbsp; 
As far as pain, I would contact your provider where you had Coolsculpting done and let them know what you are experiencing. Pain typically lasts up to 2 weeks, anything beyond this you should let your provider know. 
Best of luck!

I got my cool sculpting procedure done on my abdomen and flanks. It has been two days now, I feel a mild pain whenever I touch the treated areas. I although am unable to do my daily running. It hurts everytime there is a jerk. Is it normal? Also my treated areas seem bloated. How long will it take to subside? When can I get back to my usual workouts and cardio?

Can I start doing cardio after CoolSculpting?
