CoolSculpting® in Beverly Hills
Countless people have struggled to rid their bodies of stubborn excess fat. Even if diet and exercise have helped you lose weight, chances are you still struggle to lose fat from certain troublesome areas.
If you are at or near your ideal weight and would like to eliminate those annoying love handles, saddlebags, or thunder thighs and attain more slender body contours, CoolSculpting® may be the perfect solution for you. CoolSculpting® is the only FDA-approved, non-surgical treatment that uses cooling technology to gently, effectively, and permanently eliminate unwanted fat and sculpt the body.
What Can CoolSculpting® Achieve?
-
Permanent Fat Elimination
CoolSculpting® permanently removes fat by freezing targeted fat cells. These fat cells die due to the fast temperature shift caused by targeted freezing. The body will naturally remove the dead cells over the next few weeks. Unlike diet and exercise, when these fat cells die, they are eliminated permanently. The cold temperatures used during CoolSculpting® only affect the fat cells, leaving the surrounding healthy cells undamaged.
-
Increased Muscle Definition
By removing fat in targeted locations, the patient’s muscle definition becomes sharper and more visible. This will reveal muscles that would otherwise be concealed behind a layer of fat. This is ideal for patients interested in enhancing the appearance of muscles they’ve earned at the gym.
-
Slimmer Contours
Fat removal in targeted areas can adjust the body’s contours, creating a slimmer, more attractive body profile. This is ideal for patients seeking the ideal hourglass shape but cannot achieve it through diet and exercise alone.
What Can I Expect During My CoolSculpting® Recovery?
-
Immediately After
No downtime is required after a CoolSculpting® treatment, and patients may return to daily activities immediately. Some patients may experience minor tingling within 5 to 10 minutes of the treatment’s conclusion as increased blood flow occurs. This pins-and-needles sensation should only last a few minutes.
-
1 Week
Initial results may start to become noticeable as fat cells are metabolized. Minor side effects, such as bruising or swelling, will resolve.
-
2 to 3 Weeks
Initial results should become fully visible as fat cells redistribute in response to the loss of fat deposits.
-
4 to 6 Weeks
Final results will continue to develop, and newly defined body contours will begin to emerge.

How long until I see my results from CoolSculpting®?

How long do the results of CoolSculpting® last?
The fat cells that CoolSculpting® removes are gone for good and will not regrow. Therefore, CoolSculpting® results are effectively permanent.
