It has been thrown around that lowering body fat with Coolsculpting can lower your overall Cholesterol but no studies has been proven this. Of course the benefits from looking and feeling good are priceless.
Really good question! If you're overall content with your weight and/or other body areas but want one of them reduced due to more volume there than you prefer then yes, Coolsculpting is an excellent option. Different applicators can target different shaped areas of volume. You can be very lean overall but still have a pocket of fat that you want gone. My end answer to people interested in Coolsculpting is to come in for a consultation to make sure you're a good candidate.
A question worth asking! There is a range of prices when it comes to Coolsculpting. Even other countries like Canada seem to be pricier than the United States, however your choice to travel for the procedure is up to you. A practice can set the prices they want, ultimately if you are shopping around go with the practice you feel you're most comfortable with. They may not be the lesser priced but experience and confidence has a value all its own.
Great question! Reducing the number of fat cells overall typically means that if you were to gain weight you would have less volume gain in the areas that have had Coolsculpting. As someone who has done Coolsculpting on their lower abdomen and gained 8 lbs over the holidays, I did not notice volume gain in my lower abdomen but did find it on my flanks. Ultimately it is best to maintain a healthy weight to support your great Coolsculpting results.
