THE RESULTS
CoolSculpting is an FDA-approved, non-surgical and non-invasive procedure aimed at reducing fat in targeted areas. It offers an alternative to liposuction. It can treat the tummy, love handles, hips, waist, legs, back, lower and upper arms, muffin top, banana roll and even the double chin.
Individual results may vary, and some patients may see changes in the treated area after one session. Depending on personal goals, 2-3 treatments might be suggested, with initial results potentially visible after three weeks and final outcomes usually developing 3-4 months post-treatment.
The first step of the CoolSculpting procedure is a thorough assessment with an experienced medical professional. When you come in for treatment, an applicator will be placed on the problem area using a light suction while controlled cooling is deployed to the surface of the skin. It’s normal to experience an intense cold sensation as the fat cells are being frozen. This typically dissipates after a few minutes and patients are able to relax and enjoy the treatment.
The applicator will remain attached for approximately one hour. During the procedure patients may read, listen to music, work on their laptop or even take a nap.
Harvard University researchers discovered CoolSculpting technology over a decade ago by. The breakthrough “fat freezing” treatment involves exposing fat cells to very low temperatures, a process called cryolipolysis or cryotherapy. It was discovered that once stubborn fat cells become frozen they die and are naturally removed by your body’s lymphatic system.
CoolSculpting is a great option for targeting excess fat around the tummy, inner thighs, outer thighs, love handles (muffin top), back, lower and upper arms, chin/neck , knees, ankles and bra fat. In fact, most areas with stubborn, unwanted fat cells that don’t respond to diet and exercise can be effectively targeted with CoolSculpting.

To ensure utmost professionalism and consistency, we have developed a set of procedures for our out-of-town patients. For those travelling to see us, we ask that you send images of the areas you wish to have treated, which Cosmos Aesthetics your prefer and where you are located. This will allow our staff to include all the necessary information as part of your personalised quote.
There is no recovery time needed following CoolSculpting. Patients can return to work and resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure. Some people may experience temporary side-effects such as redness or numbness, as well as minor swelling and bruising in the treated area.
The aim of CoolSculpting is to target fat cells which, once treated, may be less likely to return in the treated area. Patients are encouraged to maintain a healthy weight through diet and exercise to sustain a long-term outcome. Keep in mind that CoolSculpting is not a weight loss tool but rather a body sculpting treatment.
Most patients should see results as early as three weeks after their CoolSculpting procedure. Maximum fat reduction, however, can be observed after 12-16 weeks. Additionally, the body will continue to remove injured fat cells for approximately four months after treatment. Typically, the procedure can reduce the fat layer by 20-40%.
