Cool Sculpting works through a process called cryolipolysis, or fat-freezing, which quite literally freezes and kills fat cells. Unlike surgery or procedures that use laser technology, CoolSculpting® acts strictly on fat cells, leaving skin and other tissues unharmed and leaving you with virtually no downtime. This allows us to easily fit your 35-minute CoolSculpting appointment into a lunch break, and you can get right back to your busy day! CoolSculpting can be used for long-term fat reduction in the chin, thighs, abdomen, upper arm, and more.
