CoolSculpting®: Say Goodbye to Stubborn Fat Deposits

At Progressive Care for Women, we believe in helping you become confident, strong, and beautiful inside and out. While we focus on your health first, we also understand that how you feel about your appearance affects your self-esteem.

That’s why we’re proud to offer aesthetic treatments like CoolSculpting®, a nonsurgical way to reduce stubborn fat that doesn’t budge with diet and exercise. A recent study confirmed that CoolSculpting is a safe, effective procedure with minimal risks, making it the ideal alternative to liposuction.

If you’ve been working hard to stay healthy but still struggle with unwanted fat in certain areas, you’re not alone — many women come to us frustrated by trouble spots like the belly, love handles, or thighs that don’t respond to even the healthiest lifestyle. If you’re among them, CoolSculpting may be the solution you’ve been looking for.

What is CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting technology uses cold temperatures to freeze fat cells in specific areas of your body. The medical name for this process is cryolipolysis. It’s FDA-cleared and doesn’t require surgery, needles, or downtime.

During your CoolSculpting session, we place a special applicator on the area you want to treat. It delivers controlled cooling to the fat underneath your skin, targeting fat cells without harming the surrounding tissue. Over the next few weeks, your body naturally removes the frozen fat cells, leaving the area looking slimmer and more sculpted.

It’s important to know that CoolSculpting is not a weight-loss treatment. Instead, it shapes and contours areas where fat tends to stick around even after you’ve reached a healthy weight.

Areas CoolSculpting can treat

CoolSculpting can treat many common problem areas, including the following:

• Abdomen (belly fat)
• Flanks (love handles or muffin top)
• Inner and outer thighs
• Under the chin (double chin)
• Upper arms
• Bra and back fat
• Under the buttocks (banana roll)

If you’re not sure whether you’re a good candidate, don’t worry. We’ll complete a personalized consultation to see if CoolSculpting is right for you.

What CoolSculpting feels like

Most patients describe CoolSculpting as feeling cold and slightly tingly at first. After a few minutes, the area usually goes numb, so it becomes quite comfortable. Some patients read, scroll on their phones, or even nap during treatment!

Each session usually takes between 35 and 60 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas treated. Afterward, you can go right back to your normal activities, including work and exercise.

CoolSculpting results

You may notice changes as early as three weeks after CoolSculpting treatment, with the most dramatic results showing around two to three months later. Your body continues to dispose of dead fat cells for up to six months.

Many women are happy with their results after one session, but some choose to have additional treatments for even more improvement.

CoolSculpting works best for women who already live a healthy lifestyle but have small pockets of fat they’d like to eliminate. It’s not a solution for obesity or a substitute for healthy weight loss, but you may be a great fit if you’re close to your ideal weight and just want to target specific areas.

Women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant should wait before starting treatment. While CoolSculpting is safe, it’s best to focus on your pregnancy and postpartum recovery first. We’re happy to talk about treatment options at the right time for you.
