CoolSculpting utilizes two uniquely contoured applicator paddles placed along the area targeted fatty tissue. Once the fat has been vacuumed between the applicators, they rapidly cool to a freezing temperature. With traditional CoolSculpting, in 60 minutes the area fat cells are damaged, while healthy tissues remain safely untouched. Then, as the body metabolizes the unneeded fat cells over three to four months, patients will see up to a 30% reduction in fatty tissue, noting dramatically improved physical contours. Because a variety of applicators are available, CoolSculpting can be tailored for almost any area on a range of different body types. Without the need for incisions or sutures, there is little chance for complications following a CoolSculpting treatment. For those patients needing additional fat reduction, repeat sessions are safe and effective.
