CoolSculpting is a non-invasive body contouring treatment that uses controlled cooling, a process called cryolipolysis, to target and eliminate stubborn fat that resists diet and exercise. This FDA-cleared technology addresses common problem areas including the abdomen, flanks, thighs, back, upper arms, and the area beneath the chin. At Lumiere Aesthetics, treatment plans are designed under the supervision of Dr. Elena Marchetti, MD, to ensure realistic goals and natural-looking contours.
What to Expect
During your session, an applicator is placed on the targeted area and delivers precisely controlled cooling to the fat cells beneath the skin. You may feel intense cold and some pulling or tugging during the first several minutes, which subsides as the area becomes numb. Most clients read, work, or relax during the 35 to 60 minute session. Afterward, the treated area is briefly massaged. There is no anesthesia, no incisions, and you can return to normal activities right away.
Results
The cooled fat cells are gradually crystallized and then naturally processed and eliminated by your body over the following weeks. You will begin to see changes around three weeks, with the most dramatic results at two to three months. A single session typically reduces fat in the treated area by roughly 20 to 25 percent, and treated fat cells are permanently removed. Some clients choose additional sessions for further reduction or add adjacent areas to achieve a smoother, more balanced contour. Because the eliminated fat cells do not return, results tend to be long-lasting as long as you maintain a stable weight.
Good to Know
CoolSculpting reduces fat but is not a weight-loss solution or a substitute for a healthy lifestyle. It pairs exceptionally well with Emsculpt to build and define muscle in the same area for a more sculpted result. During your complimentary consultation, we will map your treatment areas and estimate the number of cycles needed.
