CoolSculpting in Austin is a non-surgical, non-invasive treatment for fat reduction. The treatment uses controlled cooling to eliminate stubborn fat that cannot be reduced by conventional means. It is the only FD-cleared procedure for fat-freezing.

Clients who have the CoolSculpting procedure do not have any downtown. There is no surgery, no anesthesia, and no invasive procedures which also means there is no need to have a recovery period. Clients can go about their day without having to miss work. That is what makes this breakthrough treatment so desirable.

The FDA has cleared CoolSculpting treatments in eight areas of the body: abdomen, sides, double chin area, inner thighs, outer thighs, and upper arms.

The CoolSculpting procedures gently cool the targeted area. The fat cells under the affected fat cells will crystallize and then die. Over time, the body will absorb the dead cells then eliminate them from the body. The elimination process is through sweating, urination, and bowel movements. The results from CoolSculpting are long term because the fat cells are no longer there.

Since everyone is different, a consultation appointment for CoolSculpting in Austin is needed to begin the process. During the consultation visit, the technician will tailor a treatment plan that is right for your needs. Depending on your body type some customized treatment plans may require more than one treatment.

On the day of your treatment, a gel pad will be applied to the targeted area. An applicator will attach to the gel pad and deliver controlled cooling. Patients can read, work on their phones or even take a nap during the procedure. Each treatment will take from 36 to 60 minutes.

It is important to understand that CoolSculpting is not a weight loss solution for people who are overweight. It is designed to reduce fat when conventional means do not work.
