Sex and the City star Kristin Davis recently had CoolSculpting on her abdomen in an effort to get back into her jeans and look her best on camera.

Despite some initial misconceptions about the non-surgical fat reduction treatment, she quickly learned that it was a safe and effective way to target stubborn fat pockets, without any downtime.

So, what are the two things she wished she knew before trying CoolSculpting?

Keep reading for Kristin’s advice and what patients can expect should they decide to undergo treatment.

Why Did Kristin Davis Initially Think She Wasn’t a Candidate for CoolSculpting?

When Kristin Davis first heard about CoolSculpting, she assumed it was indicated for patients that wanted to eliminate large amounts of fat. She also admits to thinking that it was a one-size-fits-all procedure.

However, after doing some research and attending a consultation for the fat-freezing treatment, she discovered that she was an ideal candidate for CoolSculpting. What’s more, she found out that it could precisely target diet and exercise resistant fat around her midsection.

What Does Kristin Want Everyone to Know About CoolSculpting?

Kristin revealed that not only was she wrong about CoolSculpting being a cookie cutter treatment, but that it’s actually a highly-customizable procedure.

There are nine different CoolSculpting applicators, which are designed to fit bulges on different parts of the body.

She also learned that CoolSculpting is an excellent non-surgical option for individuals that want to eliminate stubborn areas of localized fat.

So, rather than being a treatment for patients that wanted all-over fat reduction, CoolSculpting is perfect for women and men that are within 15-30 pounds of their ideal weight and have trouble spots with pinchable fat.

How Did She Describe Her CoolSculpting Experience and Results?

Kristin was pleasantly surprised that her CoolSculpting procedure was so easy, quick, and painless. She watched tv during her 35-minute treatment and then was able to pick up her daughter from school and go about her day as she normally would.

She started noticing improvements within a few weeks and, by 12 weeks, she was able to fit into her jeans again. Kristin was so impressed with her CoolSculpting results that she plans to undergo another treatment in the future.
