A few days ago I asked about a self treatment with an ice packs. The answers were, "Don't do it, it's dangerous, it's not effective, and cannot kill the fat cells." Re:efficiency, The tech was invented after "popsicle panniculitis", kids who loved popsicles, lost cheek fat. It seems like ice does kill subcutaneous fat. YouTube is full of hundreds of videos with testimonials of people who claim they lost 1-5 inches in circumference. You can see the results in the video, are they all fake ? Thanks
Answer: Careful with cooling Cool sculpting is a safe and effective way to lose unwanted fat cell via a patented and thoroughly researched method that has been FDA approved. It has built in fail safes to ensure the appropriate freezing of unwanted fat, while limiting unwanted damage to skin and nerves. Do it your self treatments are dangerous and unpredictable because there is no way to regulate the temperature precisely and in the appropriate time frame. Therefore one runs the risk of damaged skin, nerve and muscle cells when one tries a home applied method.

Answer: At Home CoolSculpting Hello, Thank you for your question. Unfortunately “at home CoolSculpting” is not an effective treatment. The procedure at a doctors office has several different safety measures to ensure that the skin isn’t damaged during the process. It is measuring the skin temperature throughout the entire procedure and if the temperature drops below a certain level the treatment will end. The patented gel pads also protect skin! The application also ensures a specific treatment area is targeted, this can’t be achieved with ice packs at home. Overall the risks are not worth it.

Answer: "DIY" CoolSculpting® doesn't work and could be harmful. The cold temperatures used during CoolSculpting are precisely controlled, and applied using a specialized tool.Further, the tools and techniques used during the process ensure that only the unwanted fat cells are destroyed, without causing harm to any surrounding tissues. Attempting to recreate aCoolSculpting treatment using ice at home is more likely to result in injury to your skin than in actual fat loss. Precision, predictability of results, and assurance of safety are just a few of the reasons why doctors only recommend actual CoolSculpting instead of at-home methods.

Answer: Why Do Doctors Dislike Home CoolSculpting? DIY “Icing” Runs the Risk of Skin Damage
While the idea of CoolSculpting may have been inspired by noticing the diminishment of fat in the cheeks of children who ate popsicles, the CoolSculpting system does more than apply ice to fatty areas. CoolSculpting by Zeltiq lowers the temperature of the fat enough to send it into a slow-death cycle, but does not freeze or damage the skin or other organs. The applicators constantly monitor the temperature of the skin to be sure that it will not be damaged. Also, remember that popsicles deliver cold temperatures to the inside mucosa, close to the deep fat. It is not possible to get the same results through the outside thicker skin and fat layers.

Answer: Home Ice Pack treatments aguy38. Thank you for your question. The danger of home ice pack treatments is you take the risk of not only reducing Subcutaneous fat but simulateneoulsy destroying the skin. Necrotic, dead skin, is a major medical problem. Coolsculpting is safe as it does not harm the skin but directly goes after the fat.
