CoolSculpting Fat Freezing

Our patient came to Health & Aesthetics to have CoolSculpting on her back. After significant weight loss on our medically led weight loss program, she was left with small hard-to-shift pockets of fat which she was struggling to lose. She wanted to feel more comfortable in clothes. This is her account of CoolSculpting.

WHY I CHOSE COOLSCULPTING

I was starting to get frustrated on how my contour was changing after significant weight loss. As a result, my back was suffering with a bit of dreaded bra-overhanging. I started opting for larger clothes which was not what I wanted. I exercise regularly and was really struggling to lose those little pockets of fat so chose CoolSculpting to freeze these pockets.

I was nervous, but knowing that CoolSculpting was FDA approved and had great results was a source of great comfort. I had already undergone procedures and treatments with Health & Aesthetics so I had every confidence that they would get me the very best results.

THE TREATMENT

The treatment itself was surprisingly comfortable. At first, it was exceptionally cold and then it went numb after 5 minutes. It just wasn’t painful (which I was definitely scared of) and the treatment lasts 35 minutes each cycle. I had a total of 6 cycles, four with CoolAdvantage and two on the CoolAdvantage petite to give me a tailored results.

Surprisingly, it was really comfortable and actually quite relaxing. Having two cycles done at once with DualSculpting was great as it meant I got to have the treatment in half the time. Definitely a bonus!

After I finished my treatments, I felt good. The area was still relatively numb!

THE RESULTS

THE NEXT DAY

The next day, I was quite sore and then felt a touch bruised. This lasted for about 4 weeks until the whole area went back to normal. The area felt a bit swollen but this was fine as I expanded my bra a bit to make it more comfortable.

ONE MONTH AFTER TREATMENT

I went into Health & Aesthetics and was pleased I was already starting to get some results and a slight contour. I felt completely back to normal and was now just excited to see my final results at 12 weeks.

TWELVE WEEKS AFTER TREATMENT

I was thrilled when I saw my final photos. I had slightly gained weight, so I was expecting this to be reflected in my results. But I was thrilled to see that my back looked much more contoured and significantly diminished in size.

I am so pleased that I have decided to get my stomach treated!
