Chillin’ & Coolin’

It is important to note that fat freezing is a fat loss treatment, but not a substitute for weight loss. It is mainly used to target areas of the body with stubborn fat and areas which may be resistant to diet and toning through exercise, such as love handles.

CoolSculpting^® is a non-invasive treatment for fat reduction suitable for almost all body types. Our doctor will perform a consultation to assess the body. Thereafter, the number of sessions will be determined. Do note that the fat freezing procedure is not advisable for patients with the following conditions:

• People with extreme skin laxity or sagging skin tissues (people who have gone through sudden and drastic weight loss)
• People who are looking for weight loss
• Cryoglobulinemia
• Paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria
• Cold agglutinin disease

Likewise, patients should inform the doctor of any recent surgery or allergies prior to fat freezing to ensure safety.

Each session typically lasts about 35-60 minutes, but the duration can vary depending on the treated area.

It depends on a combination of a few factors:

• How much fat reduction is required
• How your body responds to the treatment
• Your personal expectations

Results will usually be visible within 1 – 5 months, although some patients have seen results after just 3 weeks. Typically results will peak in the 2nd or 3rd month.

Each session decreases the number of fat cells in the treatment area by about 20%. Each additional treatment will further enhance the results, giving you an additional 20% reduction per session.

You may feel slight discomfort at the start of the treatment when the cooling begins, which may last for a few minutes. The discomfort is mild and many people find it comfortable enough to proceed to sleep, watch videos or work on their laptop after.

Yes, the fat cells targeted and eliminated by CoolSculpting^® are gone for good. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is crucial to prevent new fat accumulation.

Your body naturally and gradually sheds the frozen fat cells away over the course of six months. Unlike dieting and exercising, frozen fat cells actually die and are gone from your body with the CoolSculpting^® procedure, leaving you with a toned and firm body.

CoolSculpting^® is a very safe treatment in the hands of trained professionals. CoolSculpting^® has a well-established safety and efficacy profile. CoolSculpting^® systems are controlled cooling devices designed with built-in safety measures. If sensors detect that the skin is getting too cold, the system will shut down automatically. Nevertheless, we recommend you to get a proper assessment done with our doctors prior to the treatment.

Temporary side effects may include redness, swelling, bruising, and numbness in the treated area. These usually resolve on their own.

There are typically no restrictions, and patients can resume their normal activities immediately. However, it's advisable to avoid strenuous exercise for a day or two.
