CoolSculpting

Cool Technology. Even Cooler Results.

Aesthetic Dermatology has offered CoolSculpting, a revolutionary non-surgical contouring treatment that freezes stubborn fat, which then is naturally eliminated from your body, for many years. No needles, no special diets, no supplements, no surgery, and most importantly, no downtime. It’s safe, FDA-cleared, effective, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do. The benefits can actually rival those previously attainable by liposuction alone.

You exercise and you eat right, but some stubborn fat bulges are immune to diet and exercise. You don’t feel as confident in your own skin as you should or could.

CoolSculpting is FDA-approved for reducing fat deposits in the upper and lower abdomen, muffin top, love handles and flanks, and inner and outer thighs. It is also effective for upper arms, knees and back fat reduction.

What is CoolSculpting? Can you tell me more about it?

CoolSculpting is a breakthrough, non-invasive procedure that uses cooling technology to noticeably eliminate fat without surgery. Dr. Lowenstein will determine if you are a good candidate and work with you to determine the best treatment plan during a one-on-one consultation.

What happens during the procedure?

Using a technology developed by Harvard scientists, CoolSculpting targets and freezes fat cells causing their natural death in the treatment area. It’s completely non-invasive so there is no cutting, no needles and no anesthesia. Patients typically read, work on their laptops, listen to music or relax during the procedure.

What are the specific areas of the body that are being treated with CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared for love handles and abdomens. CoolSculpting effectively reduces fat deposits in muffin tops, the upper and lower abdomen, the back, and flanks. During your consultation, Dr. Lowenstein will be able to determine your treatment plan based on your assessment.

Is CoolSculpting safe? Painful? Are there side effects?

CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared and proven safe. Some patients may experience temporary pain or discomfort. Dr. Lowenstein can talk to you more about what to expect during and after treatment when you meet for your consultation.

How long is each treatment?

During your consultation, Dr. Lowenstein will discuss how much time should be allotted based on your individual treatment plan. A typical treatment can last between one and three hours.

How much does CoolSculpting cost? How many treatments will I need?

The price for CoolSculpting varies, depending on your areas of concern, the number of treatments needed and your ultimate goals. Dr. Lowenstein would need to assess you in person to help estimate the cost. Typically, you’ll see a noticeable reduction of fat in the treated area after one visit, but you may appreciate even more fat reduction with additional treatments.

Are CoolSculpting results permanent? How long do results last?

CoolSculpting results are lasting, as long as you maintain your healthy lifestyle. The fat cells that are eliminated from CoolSculpting do not return.

Am I a good candidate for CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is not a weight loss solution for people who are obese, or a substitute for surgical methods such as liposuction. Good candidates have noticeable bulges in certain areas they’d like to get rid of and are within 15-20 pounds of their ideal weight. Dr. Lowenstein will determine if treatment is right for you during a one-on-one consultation.
