Certification
Coolsculpting provides hands on training at each site and also offers a certification through Coolsculpting University. When you have your consultation, make sure that the practice and technician are both certified. You can verify this information with your physician. (Patrick M. Moore, MD, Murrieta General Surgeon)
CoolSculpt practitioners ideally should be trained at CoolSculpt University. The company provides extensive training for the best practices, newest techniques and latest information regarding this procedure. At the practice you choose, certifications should be visible.
If not, don’t hesitate to ask about the qualifications of your practitioner. (Marisa Lawrence, MD, Atlanta Plastic Surgeon)

It is possible for non-trained providers to purchase CoolSculpting equipment on eBay.
