CoolSculpting is an advanced method of fat-reduction that eliminates fat pockets on the body that are resistant to diet and exercise. The ideal CoolSculpting candidate has visible, pinchable deposits of fat in certain areas of their body they want to eliminate. Subcutaneous fat is very light, therefore CoolSculpting is not intended for weight loss, only fat reduction body contouring. CoolSculpting is proven to be the safer, non-surgical, fat-eliminating alternative to liposuction. A consultation will be needed with our clinicians to see if you are a good fit for this treatment.

A medical aesthetician will assist you in designing a treatment plan during your complimentary consultation that is based on your personal goals for your appearance.
