  With two CoolSculpting machines and the latest line of applicators, Dr. Fiorillo and his team can target bulges from nearly anywhere on the body. Commonly treated bulges include:

  • Belly Fat
  • Submental fullness (neck fat and double chins)
  • Love handles
  • Thigh fit (inner and outer)
  • Fat below the buttocks
  • Upper arm fat
  • Armpit fat (bra bulge)
  • Back fat
  • Chest fat (for men)

• Who is CoolSculpting Meant For?

  CoolSculpting is intended for healthy men and women who grapple with stubborn fat bulges that resist diet and exercise. CoolSculpting is not a weight loss program. Losing weight shrinks fat cells. It does not destroy fat cells. This permits the existing fat cells to expand again to accommodate weight gain in the future.
  In contrast, Cold Sculpting your fat destroys and eliminates fat cells from the body. Frozen fat cells expelled from the body cannot re-expand. They do not grow back. They are gone for good.

• When will I see results?

  Results appear gradually. Some patients notice reductions in fat within four weeks of their treatment. Most patients, however, require 6 to 12 weeks before results manifest. As with any treatment, individual experiences may vary.*

• Are CoolSculpting Results Long-lasting?

  CoolSculpting results are long-lasting. In a longitudinal study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, researchers evaluated patients after 9 years following a single cryolipolysis treatment. Researchers found that fat reduction was still visible even after nearly a decade. The study concludes, “local reductions in fat [after one cycle of Cryolipolysis] have significant longevity.” This infers “results from Cryolipolysis may be very long lasting.”

• CoolSculpting Risks: Is Fat Freezing Safe?

  CoolSculpting is recognized for its high safety profile and minimal risk, making it the optimal choice in non-surgical body shaping.

  A clinical study measuring the “Safety, Tolerance, And Patient Satisfaction with Cryolipolysis” concluded “[CoolSculpting] is a safe, well-tolerated, and effective treatment method for reduction of subcutaneous fat”.

  Another study published in the Journal of Dermatological Surgery confirmed these findings, saying “cryolipolysis is considered to be both safe and efficient with a high patient satisfaction rate.” Furthermore, “No significant side effects of adverse events were reported.”

  In addition, patient surveys reveal the procedure is well-tolerated, with “89% of [patients] reporting a positive of treatment duration and 96% reporting minimal to tolerable discomfort.”

• CoolSculpting side effects?

  CoolSculpting side effects are rare. Most negative outcomes result from patients receiving treatment from unexperienced technicians using knock off fat freezing machines. This is why it is essential to choose a certified provider.
  While side effects are rare after treatment, many patients experience mild symptoms associated with an immune response. The immune response indicates the lymphatic system is hard at work, gathering and disposing of the frozen fat cells. Some of these symptoms include:

  • Tenderness
  • Redness
  • Swelling
  • Bruising

  However, symptoms are mild, isolated to treatment location, and resolves themselves within a week or so.

• CoolSculpting Cost

  CoolSculpting cost varies per individual. Many factors determine price, from the number of cycles, along with the size and shape of applicators.
