does it really work? the doctors that don't offer it (they say they have better techniques) say it doesn't work and the ones that do say it's the best. is it suitable for someone who has very little fat to loose? Also, how do you choose the best doctor? I have seen few and I always feel I am being sold the technique they have not the best for me.
Answer: Does "Fat Freeze" really work Coolsculpting is best when performed on an area that has an excess number of fat cells. For example, women say, "When I gain weight, it goes straight to my belly." That means that you were born with more fat cells in your abdominal area. It would be great to perform coolsculpting in that area to reduce the number of fat cells there and make that are more proportional with the rest of your body. Then, if you gain weight, it will be more evenly distributed over your body. It won't just "go straight" to one area.

Answer: Fat freezing - the concept and the reality Every physician is entitled to opinion - and you are right, sometimes they will only speak well of what they have in their office. But the FDA won't approve a device unless it is proven to do what it says it will do. CoolSculpting is FDA approved and it does work. But it won't work if it's used for the wrong reason. The right reason: You have a few fat bulges that have been resistant to exercise and diet.The wrong reason: You are overweight, want to lose weight and you don't want to diet or exercise.CoolSculpting is not surgery so it can't be directly compared to liposuction. Remember, this is a completely noninvasive treatment and the applicators only cover a certain area. But for helping trim down small fat pockets, it's a simple and effective process.Your treating provider (this could be a doctor, nurse or PA) can tell you if you are a good candidate...and you need to have that "inch to pinch" to even consider it. As to how you choose - a good recommendation is to pick a practice that is supported by a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon. Both will have ample education and training working with the skin and body tissues.
