How to Determine If CoolSculpting is Right for You

If you’re working hard to achieve your ultimate body goals but still find it difficult to eliminate small pockets of stubborn fat tissue, and you don’t want to go under the knife, a non-surgical procedure called CoolSculpting® could be for you. This FDA-approved device has the ability to freeze fat cell deposits, which allows the body to convert fatty tissue into waste that is then naturally observed and appropriately discharged from the body over time.

This state-of-the-art technology can be used on bothersome parts of the body that tend to hold on to fat deposits such as the abdomen, thighs, love handles/flanks, and other areas. The CoolSculpting® treatment is a fat reduction procedure and not intended to be a weight loss alternative, even though some recipients have experienced some slight weight loss due to this contouring technique.

Studies have shown this innovative technology and reduction system left 95% of its participants highly satisfied with their results. But you may be wondering whether or not CoolSculpting® is right for you. Here are some signs that it could be.

You’re Near Your Target Body Weight

As previously mentioned, this procedure is for individuals close to their ideal body weight. People who have undergone the procedure have reported losing approximately 25% of their unwanted fat from their targeted treatment areas. Scheduling multiple treatment sessions will provide you with more satisfying results.

You’ve Got Enough Fat to Treat

Believe it or not, some people are too thin in order to properly utilize this cutting-edge contouring technique. It is recommended that you have at least one inch of pinchable fat in your desired treatable area for the applicator technology to provide your skin surface with the necessary amount of suction. An adequate amount of fat is required to produce a quality outcome.

You’re Not Interested in Liposuction

If you’ve had bad reactions to anesthesia in the past or discussed the complications of liposuction and have ruled out plastic surgery as an option for you, this contouring technique could possibly be right for you. Also, as a potential candidate for this procedure, you should be aware that the results are not instantaneous as the frozen fat cells are naturally converted into waste and are extracted naturally out of your body with time. Optimal results can be seen in the months following a sculpting treatment.
