CoolSculpting Bay City, MI

CoolSculpting® is FDA-approved to treat nine different areas of the body. Patients can choose to treat a single area or multiple to reach their ideal body image. Treatment areas include the upper arms, jawline, area beneath the chin, back, flanks, abdomen, thighs, and the area beneath the buttocks. We can also use it to target back fat, also known as bra fat.

When you arrive for your appointment, you’ll be situated on a treatment bench, and we will place the device in your target areas. Using the process of cryolipolysis, we will use the device to freeze the fat cells in your treatment area. You’ll feel an extremely cold sensation during the treatment, and then the treatment area will become numb.

You’ll be able to relax during the treatment, read, watch TV, or even nap. The treatment process is virtually painless and a comfortable experience. Depending on how many areas you want to treat, treatments can take one to three hours. After your initial consultation, we can give you more details about what to expect from your unique treatment plan.

Most patients can achieve their desired results after a single treatment, but some may need more than one session, depending on their ultimate treatment goals. After your initial consultation, we can better determine your treatment schedule once we learn more about your treatment goals and evaluate your treatment area in person.

Once your treatment is over, your body will naturally eliminate the dead fat cells from your treatment area. As it does, you’ll see improvements in that area, but the process can take several weeks. By the end of that process, patients can lose up to 20 to 25% of stubborn fat in their target areas.

CoolSculpting® is intended to deliver permanent results. However, since the device will not eliminate every fat cell in your treatment area, any remaining fat cells can expand if you gain weight after your treatment. The easiest way to maintain permanent results is to avoid weight gain post-treatment. Living a healthy lifestyle, eating a healthy diet, and engaging in regular physical activity will ensure the longevity of your results.

Once your treatment is over, you’ll be free to resume your normal daily activities and can even go to the gym if you’d like. You won’t be limited in any way, but instead can go about your day and await the dramatic results that will appear in the weeks following your treatment.

This treatment process was designed by Harvard-based scientists who discovered that fat cells would experience cell death when frozen, which could permanently eliminate those cells from the body. The treatment process has been studied and proven to be an effective and non-invasive way for patients to target and eliminate stubborn fat without undergoing a surgical procedure like liposuction.

When you schedule your treatments, you can do so confidently, knowing that the treatment is completely safe and will naturally eliminate fat cells from your body.

The best candidates for CoolSculpting® are those who want to fine-tune their bodies by eliminating stubborn fat cells. The treatment is not a weight loss treatment, nor is it a way for those who are overweight to eliminate large amounts of fat. An initial consultation is the best way to confirm your treatment eligibility.
