Is it normal for the skin to become looser after CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting: The only FDA approved treatment for skin laxity in the submentum
Jan 3, 2018
Its far too early to see what your full results will be; however, CoolSculpting is the only FDA approved treatment for not only fat reduction, but to improve the appearance of skin laxity in the submentum area. In cases where there is a lot of skin laxity prior to the treatment, its possible that you may initially notice the pre-exisitng laxity more once the volume starts to decrease. Even so, stay patient and wait for the full results to reveal in about 90 days! At Imagine Body Sculpting we…
CoolSculpting contraindications. How long to wait after tummy tuck?
CoolSculpting after Lipo
Dec 8, 2017
It is not advisable to perform CoolSculpting over and open wound, or an area where the tissue is not completely healed. We don’t usually recommend performing CoolSculpting on a surgically treated area until 8-12 months post-op. Speaking with your surgeon about evaluating the treated area may help you determine a better timeline. It may also help to wait a few months after your lipo and tummy tuck to see what areas CoolSculpting will be most effective. There are very few…
What about a saggy skin after the procedure? Does this procedure tighten up your skin?
CoolSculpting: Skin laxity
Dec 4, 2017
CoolSculpting does not claim to tighten skin; some patients do see a natural firming along with their fat reduction, however its not guaranteed with the treatment. CoolSculpting doesn’t cause loose skin, but some patients may notice laxity more once they reduce the subcutaneous fat. A specialist can best help you determine if you are a good candidate, and help you set expectations for what you can expect in your results. In some physician directed practices, like Imagine Body Sculpting…
For stubborn belly would you say CoolSculpting or infrared weight reduction would have better result
CoolSculpting vs Infrared
Dec 4, 2017
The best assessments are made in person with a specialist. I highly encourage clients to research procedures before a treatment, but a personalized consultation with a specialist is the best tool and resource for helping you decide the best treatment for you. If you are maintaining a healthy diet and exercise regimen but still have stubborn fat that won’t budge, CoolSculpting could be a great option for you. With no downtime and 20-25% fat reduction per treatment, it could help reveal your…
Normal for tenderness and numbness at the same time 10 days after CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting: Numbness is Normal
Dec 2, 2017
The symptoms you are describing- numbness, tenderness in the treated area, and firmness, are all normal following a CoolSculpting treatment. The “stiffness” you describe is likely some bloating and swelling in the treatment area, which is also a normal and expected side effect of the treatment. All of the symptoms should dissipate by the day. For some patients they last only a couple of days, and they can linger for a few weeks in some cases. Some of our patients like softer pants and…
How soon will I️ see CoolSculpting results for my knees?
CoolSculpting: Knees, Results Timeline
Nov 13, 2017
Hi, thanks for posting this question!
The peak results from CoolSculpting any body area are between 2-4 months, so its still fairly early for you to be seeing results. Some side effects such as: numbness, swelling, and tingling can last for a few weeks, so its normal to still be experiencing some at this point. Most of our patients are happiest after two rounds of treatment; depending on your specialist’s recommendations, you may be preparing for another round of treatment. We…
Will there be bruising of my inner and outer thighs with CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting: Bruising or Swelling
Nov 13, 2017
Sometimes patients experience some mild bruising or redness at the treatment site following CoolSculpting. More common symptoms include swelling, numbness, and tingling. You are less likely to experience bruising on the outer thighs because it is a flat panel applicator and does not use any suction. The newer CoolAdvantage applicators are more gentle and take about half the time of the older applicators, so its possible that you wont have any at all. We love to educate patients about any and…
With CoolSculpting, if fat cells leave your body over time, will you be more likely to absorb fat in
CoolSculpting: Even distribution of Fat
Nov 10, 2017
After CoolSculting, you do not gain new fat cells. The remaining untreated cells can still expand if you gain weight, and shrink when you lose weight. Generally, with weight gain the fat redistribution is evenly distributed over the whole body, so even if your post-treatment weight fluctuates, you should still see a more contoured and sculpted area where you were treated. For optimal CoolSculpting results and overall health, maintain a healthy lifestyle with healthy diet and moderate…
No drastic changes post CoolSculpting and it’s been 4 weeks, advice?
CoolSculpting Results 2-4 months Post Treatment
Nov 10, 2017
Thank you for taking the time to post about your experience. After CoolSculpting, treated fat cells that die are naturally eliminated from the body. This process is not as rapid as invasive procedures, such as liposuction. Typically, the most dramatic results are seen in 1-3 months after treatment.The after photos are very important as results are gradual – some patients don’t think they’re seeing results until they look at the side by side images! At your next follow up appointment your spe…
How long does it take to see results when doing CoolSculpting on the stomach area? How soon can I ex
CoolSculpting: Results
Nov 4, 2017
Patients see peak results from their CoolSculpting treatment 3-4 months after their treatment. While you may experience some sensations like numbness, tingling, or swelling, most people return to their normal daily activities immediately following the procedure- this includes exercising! Listen to your body of course and talk to your physician if you’re not sure.
I want to know if CoolSculpting would damage my kidney through the fat elimination process?
CoolSculpting: Kidneys
Oct 31, 2017
As the dead fat cells are processed out of the body by the liver, you should have no issues only having one kidney. To make sure that you are a candidate for the procedure otherwise, we recommend getting a consultation from a physician directed practice that would be best equipped to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.
Best of luck,
Vincent Marino, M.D.
How soon before next CoolSculpting session? Less than a month apart too soon?
CoolSculpting: Retreat in 30 days
Oct 19, 2017
We recommend waiting at least 30 days to retreat in the same area. You could take advantage of treating another area, or wait a little longer to maximize the results in your primary area of treatment. With 20-25% reduction per area, you will likely see great results.
Is CoolSculpting able to be done if you are 100 lbs over weight?
CoolSculpting Not Recommended if you are over 40 lbs overweight
Oct 17, 2017
Since CoolSculpting is a body contouring and targeted fat reduction procedure, not a weight loss procedure, it is not recommended for individuals who are 40 lbs or more overweight. CoolSculpting doesn’t replace liposuction or diet and exercise. It is best used for stubborn areas that will not reduce no matter how much you diet or exercise. Ideal candidates are within 5-35/40lbs of their goal weight because as you lose weight, your body shape will change, and you may…
Is it safe to get Cool Sculpting when you have a lot of allergies, should I have any concerns?
CoolSculpting: Tell Staff About your Allergies
Oct 17, 2017
Luckily there are very few contraindications to CoolSculpting that are quite rare and don’t affect the majority of patients; food allergies are not among them. When filling out your Treatment Considerations Form, be sure to discuss any allergies or potential health concerns with your specialist and the treatment staff. At Imagine Body Sculpting Centers we use non-latex gloves, but its always good to call ahead and make sure the office you go to can be prepared for your visit…
Will a percentage of the fat cells that are eliminated after Coolsulpting return?
CoolSculpting: Long lasting Results
Oct 17, 2017
The key to understanding why fat cells don’t “return” after CoolSculpting is twofold. First, CoolSculpting is a targeted treatment that eliminates up to 25% of specific stubborn fat pockets per treatment.The remaining 75% of untreated fat cells can still expand when you gain weight, and shrink when you lose weight. Second, the remaining fat cells (including visceral fat behind the muscle wall that CoolSculpting does not treat) still undergoes natural cell turnover…
