Say goodbye to stubborn fat. No surgery, no downtime.

Genetics, lifestyle or gravity—no matter the culprit, many of us have bulges of stubborn fat that remain even with exercise and a healthy diet. CoolSculpting is the coolest, most innovative, non-invasive way to lose those unwanted rolls with no surgery and no downtime.

CoolSculpting's revolutionary technology uses controlled cooling to target and crystallize fat cells. These "frozen" fat cells gradually die off and are naturally eliminated from your body. In the weeks and months following treatment, remaining fat cells condense, reducing the fat layer and revealing a slimmer you. Watch how it works.

CoolSculpting can reduce fat on multiple areas of the body—including the flanks and abdominal area (affectionately known as love handles and muffin tops), as well as bra bulges on the back, both inner and outer thighs, the upper part of the back of the thigh (banana roll), and upper arms—using the new CoolMini applicator, we can now treat double chins and contour the neck, as well as other smaller areas like the axillary puff (underarm area) and the knees. The results are amazing!

Unlike most other methods of fat reduction, CoolSculpting involves no needles, surgery, or downtime. Patients can spend procedure time reading, working on their laptops, or simply relaxing. It’s safe, FDA-cleared, and effective. Results look natural and can be seen as early as 3 weeks following treatment, with the most dramatic results in 1-3 months.

Frequently Asked Questions about CoolSculpting

What is CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting is a breakthrough, non-invasive procedure that uses cooling technology to noticeably eliminate fat without surgery.

How much does CoolSculpting cost? How many treatments will I need?
The price for CoolSculpting varies depending on your areas of concern, the number of treatments needed, and your ultimate goals. Dr. Magovern would need to assess you in person to help estimate the cost. Typically, you’ll see a noticeable reduction of fat in the treated area after one visit, but you may appreciate even more fat reduction with additional CoolSculpting treatments.

What will the results be?
Many patients are satisfied after two CoolSculpting treatments. However, during your consultation, we can discuss a treatment plan that will meet your specific treatment needs.

What happens during the treatment?
To initiate CoolSculpting, we will position the device on your body. The device will then draw the bulge up between 2 cooling panels. The sensation is a very firm pull and quite a bit of pressure—enough of a pull to ensure the selected tissue will be cooled most efficiently. The device then slowly lowers the temperature, freezing the fat cells and numbing the area. After about an hour later, you’re done!

Can I return to normal activities after the procedure?
CoolSculpting is completely non-surgical, so typically you can return to normal activities immediately. Some patients experience redness, minor bruising, tingling, cramping, numbness or discomfort in the treated area, but this is temporary and will resolve completely. Often times, patients return to work after the session is over.

When will I see results?
You may start to see changes as quickly as 3 weeks after your CoolSculpting treatment, and will experience the most dramatic results after 1-3 months. Your body is still flushing fat cells and will continue doing so for up to 4-6 months after treatment.

Are the results permanent?
During CoolSculpting, the treated fat cells are eliminated. As long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle, long-term results should remain stable.

How do I get started?
