CoolSculpting: Everything You Need to Know

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that CoolSculpting is all the rage right now.

And while the cosmetic treatment world has been buzzing about it, you may not have heard about it yourself.

If you’re intrigued by this machine that can freeze your fat off (literally), then look no further.

Is This Some Kind of Miracle?

It almost seems like that. CoolSculpting uses the basic principle that fat cells are less resistant to changes in temperature than other types of tissue to kill your fat cells.

This means that, by hooking up to a machine with cold applicators, you can get rid of your fat simply by exposing yourself to surprisingly bearable temperatures.

A monitor watches the temperature carefully, not only keep you safe, but optimizing the amount of fat killed in one session.

There’s a ton of advantages to this process.

Not only is this minimally invasive and eminently safe for the body, but it comes with a short treatment session that has no down time (expect to be able to make your gym appointment the day of).

More than that, it actually KILLS fat cells instead of simply reducing their size the way diet or exercise does.

This means that CoolSculpting has a contouring effect, allowing you to get rid of problem areas rather than simply apply global fat reduction.

Am I a Good Candidate for Coolsculpting?

CoolSculpting tends to be best for those individuals who are are active and healthy but have a hard time getting rid of the final excess fat in their problem areas.

CoolSculpting is even more widely available now that mini applicators can be used to grab hold of previously difficult to grab pockets of fat.

It should be noted that CoolSculpting is a fat reduction treatment and not a weight loss treatment.
