CoolSculpting: Non-Invasive Fat Reduction for a Contoured Body Shape

Achieving a toned and sculpted body can be challenging, even with a healthy diet and regular exercise. When you’re struggling to get the body you want, you may need to start looking for other options. For those looking to target stubborn fat pockets, CoolSculpting offers a non-invasive solution. This innovative treatment uses controlled cooling to eliminate fat cells, helping you achieve a more contoured body shape without surgery or downtime. Your dermatologists at Midtown Dermatology in Tulsa, OK, can explain how CoolSculpting works and how it can help you get the body you’ve been dreaming of. 

Reshaping Your Body With CoolSculpting 

CoolSculpting from your dermatologists in Tulsa, OK, also known as cryolipolysis, is a non-invasive fat reduction treatment that targets and freezes fat cells. The procedure uses a specialized device to deliver controlled cooling to specific areas of the body, where fat cells are more sensitive to cold temperatures. Once exposed to the cold, these fat cells crystallize and die, and the body naturally eliminates them over time. 

CoolSculpting works by selectively targeting fat cells beneath the skin without harming the surrounding tissues. During the treatment, a gel pad and applicator are placed on the targeted area, and the device applies controlled cooling. Patients may feel a sensation of intense cold, tingling, or slight discomfort initially, but this typically subsides as the area becomes numb. The entire process takes about 35-60 minutes per treatment area, depending on the size and location. 

After the treatment, the body's lymphatic system gradually removes the frozen fat cells. Results are not immediate but typically become noticeable within a few weeks, with full results appearing after a few months as the body continues to process the eliminated fat. 

CoolSculpting can be used to target specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, love handles, back, arms, and under the chin. This allows for precise contouring and reduction of stubborn fat pockets. CoolSculpting is ideal for individuals who are close to their target weight but struggle with localized fat pockets that are resistant to diet and exercise. It is not a weight-loss solution but rather a body contouring treatment.
