Coolsculpting is the only FDA- cleared, non-surgical fat reduction treatment that uses controlled cooling to eliminate stubborn fat that resists all efforts through diet and exercise.

The science behind Coolsculpting is cryolipolysis. The skin is exposed to a set of temperature of 2-4 Degrees C that causes cell death of subcutaneous fat tissue without apparent damage to the overlying skin. Exposure to cooling causes fat cells apoptosis ie. a natural controlled cell death, which leads to the release of cytokines and other inflammatory cells gradually digest the affected fat cells in the months following the procedure, reducing the thickness of the fat layer. Lipids from the fact cells are slowly released and transported by the lymphatic system to be processed and eliminated from the body.

Ideally the BMI (body mass index) should be less than 30 and one should be on a consistent lifestyle regiment (Diet & Exercise).

You can do cryolipolysis for the double chin, Inner arms, Inner thighs, Outer thighs, Abdomen (Lower and Upper), Flanks and Back fat.

Each applicator per area takes an hour. The duration of treatment depends upon your areas of interest. There is no need to modify your routine because of this treatment. There is no downtime in this treatment as the treatment is non-invasive and without anesthesia. You can resume your daily activities right after the treatment.

With every cycle, 25% of fat cells and fat in the treated area are lost. Thus the results are longlasting due to apoptosis of fat cells, this reduces the ability of fat to refill in the same area. If one has smaller amounts of fat, 1-2 cycles are sufficient. For larger fat areas, 2-3 cycles would be needed for the same area to reach the desired goal.

Results are apparent within 2-3 months and last for at least 2 years as long as the weight stays stable within 2 kilos.

Cycles in the same area can be repeated after 2 months if needed. Multiple cycles can be done in the same individual 2 months apart till transformation has been achieved, which can even take 8-10 cycles.

For those with loose, sagging skin along with cryolipolysis, skin tightening with radiofrequency side by side can be continued in that area.

The Coolsculpting procedure is fundamentally different from other fat reduction methods. It uses non or minimally invasive modalities. Other methods of fat removal primarily involve necrotic cell death by damaging fat with heat, high intensity focused ultrasound or chemical injections. Coolsculpting causes apoptosis only in fat cells to gently and gradually reduce the fat layer in a natural manner preserving all other tissues.
