Understanding CoolSculpting: Non-Surgical Fat Reduction

CoolSculpting is an FDA-cleared, non-surgical treatment that uses controlled cooling technology to get rid of stubborn fat cells without harming the surrounding tissues. The treatment works on a simple scientific principle: fat cells freeze at higher temperatures than other tissues. When exposed to precise cooling, the fat cells crystallize, die, and are then naturally eliminated by your body over the following weeks and months.

Unlike invasive procedures like liposuction, CoolSculpting requires no incisions, no needles, and no anesthesia, which means there’s no downtime or recovery period. While liposuction may eliminate a larger amount of fat in a single session, CoolSculpting is a great option if you want to avoid surgery. Clinical studies show a 20-25% reduction in fat cells in treated areas after just one session. Results are typically noticeable within three weeks, with the most dramatic improvements appearing after two to three months.

How CoolSculpting Works at VitalSkin Decatur

During your treatment at our Monroe Street location, the CoolSculpting device precisely cools targeted areas to between 30.2 and 39.2 degrees Fahrenheit to freeze fat cells without harming the surrounding skin or muscle. The treatment process follows these steps:

Consultation and Assessment

Our specialists evaluate your areas of concern and create a customized treatment plan tailored to your body’s needs.

Application

A gel pad is applied to protect your skin, and the CoolSculpting applicator gently draws the tissue into the device with a mild suction.

Controlled Cooling

The applicator delivers precise cooling to the targeted area for 35-60 minutes, depending on the area being treated.

Massage

After the applicator is removed, the area receives a brief massage. This helps to break up the frozen fat cells and enhances the overall fat reduction process.

Natural Elimination

Over the following weeks, your body naturally processes and eliminates the treated fat cells through your lymphatic system.
