With its lofty claims to dramatically reduce stubborn bulges without surgery or downtime, it is easy to understand how CoolSculpting is the #1 non-invasive fat reduction procedure in the world. But before investing in the fat freezing procedure, many people wonder does CoolSculpting work? While some men and women who want a non-invasive alternative to liposuction are persuaded by the millions of individuals worldwide who have invested in CoolSculpting, more discerning patients want proof beyond raving CoolSculpting reviews.

COOLSCULPTING CLAIMS

CoolSculpting approaches fat reduction in a novel way; it’s the only procedure that reduces stubborn bulges by freezing subcutaneous fat using state-of-the-art cooling technology. After the procedure has finished, results slowly unfold over the course of, on average, six to twelve weeks, thus giving the appearance of natural weight loss.* Furthermore, CoolSculpting results have been proven to be long-lasting, not temporary.¹ Fat freezing is a very quick procedure, there’s no downtime, and most patients find the treatment to be virtually painless. With all these claims, CoolSculpting can definitely seem too good to be true, so it’s understandable that some individuals might have doubts regarding its effectiveness. Fortunately, there are independent sources that provide decisive proof.

Before looking at the evidence, it is helpful to learn about Cryolipolysis, the scientific process that CoolSculpting bases its technology on. After all, learning how CoolSculpting works will help you understand why it works.

HOW DOES COOLSCULPTING WORK?

Cryolipolysis exploits the fact that subcutaneous fat cells freeze at warmer temperatures than the skin cells that lie on top of stubborn bulges. CoolSculpting targets undesirable fat deposits and blasts them with temperatures just cold enough to freeze subcutaneous fat but warm enough that the other cells of the body remain unharmed. The applicator emits cold temperatures that gradually cool the target area to temperatures between 30.2 and 39.2 degrees Fahrenheit. Because the treatment is so cold, the target area will become numb within just a few minutes. Fat cells, when frozen, die and rupture. The ruptured fat does not just disappear, of course; the body’s natural processes slowly, over the course of weeks, break the fat cells down and excrete them as waste. The result is a healthy-looking, slimmer, body

BENEFITS OF COOLSCULPTING

There are countless benefits for individuals looking to Coolsculpting to target and eliminate stubborn fat and improve and tone their figures. One of the many benefits of CoolSculpting is that it freezes and permanently kills stubborn fat cells in targeted areas of the body.

COOLSCULPT MULTIPLE AREAS AT ONCE

Another great advantage of CoolSculpting is that this fat reduction method can simultaneously target multiple areas of the body in a single treatment session.

Dual calibrated applicators are placed on multiple targeted areas and deliver targeted cooling to reduce fat cells at once. Up to four different areas of the body can be safely treated at the same time with CoolSculpting. Treating multiple areas at once saves time and offers numerous benefits to using Coolsculpting for treating stubborn problem areas.

CoolSculpting Reviews in Scientific Literature

The scientific community has investigated whether CoolSculpting is a safe and effective way to reduce fat. The Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology published a study titled, “Safety, Tolerance, and Patient Satisfaction with Non-invasive Cryolipolysis.” The study’s authors concluded after independent investigation of over 500 patients that CoolSculpting was “well tolerated, with 89% of respondents reporting a positive perception of treatment duration and 96% reporting minimal to tolerable discomfort [...] 82% of patients would recommend the cryolipolysis procedure to a friend. Caliper measurements demonstrated [a] 23% reduction in fat layer […] with 86% of subjects showing improvement per investigator assessment.” This study is among many others that have found CoolSculpting is safe, effective and has long-lasting and noticeable results.

COOLSCULPTING FOR BELLY FAT AND LOVE HANDLES

Stubborn belly fat is a difficult area for weight loss in individuals that is often resistant to diet and exercise. Luckily, the abdomen is one of the most targeted areas for CoolSculpting. This procedure is a great option for men and women looking for a little extra assistance in their lower belly region. On average, a CoolSculpting session can decrease subcutaneous belly fat by up to 25 percent.   

Additionally, CoolSculpting is especially effective for targeting stubborn fatty deposits in the love handles area. Women are more likely to store excess fat around their hips, but men also struggle with extra fat around their hips and waist. Based on clinical studies, 86%* of patients noted “visible reductions” in fat from the flanks, back, and abdomen. Therefore, CoolSculpting is an effective method for spot-reducing unwanted fat in the belly and love handles. 

COOLSCULPTING FOR DOUBLE CHIN

CoolSculpting is also an ideal method for improving the double chin. This fat freezing method improves the appearance of a double chin by reducing the amount of excess fat under the chin and smoothing and defining the jawline. CoolSculpting has a high success rate and produces dramatic results in improving the double chin area. On average, CoolSculpting patients can experience a 20-25%* reduction in chin fat after their first treatment session. 

Based on CoolSculpting clinical studies, 77%* of patients showed improved appearance of fatty tissue in the chin area. Furthermore, CoolSculpting studies found that 75%* of patients reported their chin looked more toned following their treatment. In general, patients notice a reduction in their double chin at about four to five weeks after treatment.
