CoolSculpting™ by ZELTIQ™, an innovative technology that freezes away unwanted fat, is now available at the Skin Care Institute! CoolSculpting is an exciting new approach that is non-invasive and has shown significant results in clinical studies for removing fat without the potential risks and downtime of invasive procedures.
Cleared by the FDA, CoolSculpting gently cools unwanted fat cells in the body. Starting several weeks after the procedure, cooled fat cells begin a process called “apoptosis” and begin to shrink and disappear. The body proceeds to naturally and gradually eliminate the cooled fat cells, reducing the thickness of the fat layer.
Unlike many other methods of fat reduction, the CoolSculpting procedure involves no needles, surgery or downtime. During the procedure, a non-invasive applicator delivers precisely controlled cooling to the treatment area thereby specifically targeting fat. Treatment cycles last between one to two hours. Patients can have additional procedures for more pronounced effects if they desire. On average, each CoolSculpting procedure results in a 20% reduction of fat in the treated area, and patients can start to see results as soon as three weeks following treatment, with the most dramatic results occurring over a period of two to four months in most patients.
CoolSculpting is receiving a lot of buzz! It's been featured on: Dateline, The Doctors, Nightline, Today Show, The Dr. Oz Show, Rachel Ray Show, and many others.
