The Secret to Our CoolSculpting Fat Reduction Results is the Experience of Our CoolSculpting Providers
At Skinspirations, we know why our CoolSculpting body contouring results turn out better than those seen in other practices. Great body contouring requires a 360-degree strategy to get the most flattering results from every angle. Our CoolSculptresses, were certified in 2015 and since then have provided over 750 CoolSculpting treatments at Skinspirations.

How does CoolSculpting reduce fat?
Unlike weight loss which shrinks fat cells, CoolSculpting reduces the number of fat cells in a treatment area by cooling them to a temperature that damages them, while leaving the surrounding skin and tissues unharmed. About 20% of the fat cells in a treated area die and break down over the days & weeks following each treatment.
The treatment is non-surgical, non-invasive, and is usually not uncomfortable. There is minimal downtime if any, and patients often resume non-strenuous daily activities immediately.
How many CoolSculpting treatments will I need?
Most people notice about a 20% reduction in the fat treated about three months after each treatment session. For people with a minimal amount of fat, a single CoolSculpting treatment may be all that’s needed to reach the desired results. This happens frequently with arm treatments. For thicker areas of fat, several treatment sessions will be required to obtain optimal improvement.
Even though many people initially think they want to shrink just one area of unwanted fat, they find that once that area is leaner, reducing other areas makes their 360-degree results even better. People who have treated the fat on their abdomens often return to whittle down their flanks, for example, because it will give them a more whittled waist.
What does a CoolSculpting treatment feel like?
After carefully marking the skin where fat reduction will provide the most flattering results, applicators are usually placed with a device on either side. The treated area becomes cold and after a few minutes, becomes numb and remains so for the rest of the session.

During the treatment, you can relax or have a facial treatment if desired, while those fatty areas quietly freeze away.
After the applicators are removed, the treated areas are massaged for about two minutes while they warm up, & voila, you’re done.
How does it feel after a CoolSculpting treatment?
The areas treated with CoolSculpting are often mildly sore and swollen immediately afterward. The swelling usually resolves over the first few days but the soreness may persist for up to a few weeks, depending on the area treated. Many people notice some mild, temporary numbness for a few weeks as well. We like to think of the discomfort & numbness associated with CoolSculpting as the noise overheard from the dying fat cells’ goodbye party.
How long after my CoolSculpting treatment will I see results?
Some patients can begin to see a reduction in the treated areas or notice their clothes fit better in as little as three weeks, but for most people, results become visible in about three months, with continuing improvement over up to six months. The average amount of fat loss in a treated area is about 20% with each treatment.
How long do the results last?
CoolSculpting causes a percentage of the fat cells in the treated area to die & dissolve, so they won’t return. If you gain weight, the remaining fat cells throughout the body will increase in size diffusely, including those in the treated area, although the number of cells in the treated area will remain the same. Maintaining a healthy weight will help you to appreciate your results long-term.
How do I know if I’ll get the results I want with CoolSculpting?
Coolsculpting is not a weight loss method & it is designed to give the best results for those people who have localized, resistant fatty areas despite good diet and exercise habits.
The results seen with CoolSculpting are fairly predictable compared to other fat-reducing devices. CoolsSculpting is effective on subcutaneous fat, which is the padding that lies just below the skin but above the muscle. People with large abdomens who don’t feel a thick, soft fat layer just under the skin when they tense their abdominal muscles, have fat located under the muscle layer, where CoolSculpting can’t penetrate. That type of fat won’t respond to CoolSculpting and our CoolSculpting experts will check if your abdominal fat is superficial or deep during your consultation.
Because the CoolSculpting treatment uses cooling, those with medical conditions such as cryoglobulinemia or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria can not undergo CoolSculpting. CoolSculpting applicators that require suction cannot be placed over a known hernia, a repaired hernia site, or a recent surgical incision.
