CoolSculpting

The number of CoolSculpting treatments will depend on the size and area needed to be treated so it is impossible to predict how many cycles you may need. Please book a free consultation to understand how many treatments you would need.

The ideal candidate is within two to three stones of their ideal body weight and has pockets of pinchable soft fat.

CoolSculpting can eliminate pockets of unwanted fat on the stomach, love handles, back, arms, thighs, saddle bags, bra fat, moobs and double chin.

A special cooling pad is first applied to protect the skin. This is followed by the CoolSculpting handpiece which is curved to accurately target the individual treatment area(s). Patients may feel a firm pull and pressure but no pain. There are no needles, no surgery, no special diets and no downtime.

During the procedure patients can read, work on their laptops or just relax.

One treatment takes around 35 minutes per cycle. The total duration will depend upon the number of treatments/cycles you are having.

Yes, CoolSculpting has an inbuilt Freeze Detect safety measure to ensure there is NO RISK of damage or burns to the skin during treatment. This is the ONLY device on the market which incorporates this safety mechanism.

Fat freezes at a higher temperature than other body tissue, so body fat can be frozen safely using this technique without damaging any of the surrounding structures or the surface of the skin. It also keeps the skin warm whilst freezing takes place meaning even deep lying fat cells can be destroyed.

Unlike surgical procedures such as liposuction, a tummy tuck or even laser lipolysis, fat removal by this method requires no recovery time.

You can return to your normal activities immediately after treatment. There may some redness, minor bruising, tingling or numbness in the treated area, but this is only temporary and will settle completely.

As the crystallized fat cells break down, they are naturally flushed from your body by the lymphatic system. Results can be seen as early as three weeks after treatment, with the most dramatic results visible after one to three months.

The process of fat shedding usually continues for up to four months, after which time there will be a 25-40% fat reduction in the treated areas.

As CoolSculpting results in the treated fat cells being eliminated from the body it is proven to be a permanent method of fat removal. As long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle and do not gain excess weight, your results should be long-lasting and the stubborn areas of fat should not return.

Noticeable results can be seen after just one treatment. However, many patients opt to have a second treatment (for a further 25 – 40% fat reduction) to achieve more dramatic results.
