During cool sculpting can damage to the skin occur? The machine is freezing the fat so why does the skin not freeze & die? Is there any risk or reports of this?
Answer: Freezing Fat Scientists at Harvard recognized that fat freezes at higher temperatures than skin, so you can selectively freeze the fat while leaving the skin unharmed.

Answer: Skin does not freeze because fat freezes at a higher temperature than water. The researchers who developed CoolSculpting placed the temperature of the treatment at 12 to 15 degrees higher than the temperature at which skin, muscle and other non fatty tissue would start to be damaged. Have you ever noticed that when you put a bowl of chicken soup in the refrigerator the fat will freeze at the top. This is a great demonstration of the higher freezing temperature of fat.

Answer: Skin damage during CoolSculpting Fat has a higher freezing point than the rest of our body tissues including skin. Therefore, CoolSculpting can preferentially treat the fat without injuring the skin. Once the fat is frozen and thaws it sends the fat cells into apoptosis or cell death. These cells are then swept out of your body via the lymphatic system.

Answer: CoolSculpting does not damage the skin Hi Jeanneen. The beauty of the CoolSculpting treatment is that it does not damage the skin, nerves or blood vessels in the treatment areas. Fat freezes at a higher temperature than skin does, so this way damage to the skin is prevented during a CoolSculpting treatment. Also, before we begin the treatment we place a cool gelpad over the area that we are treating. This gelpad protects the skin and ensures that the proper temperature is maintained by the CoolSculpting machine. To see how the treatment is performed you can view our youtube page. Hope this helps!
