What Is Cryolipolysis?

Non-surgical, non-invasive CoolSculpting is an FDA-cleared fat reduction procedure that utilizes cryolipolysis to freeze targeted fat cells. After fat cells are frozen, they are destroyed, and the body naturally flushes them through its waste system.

The skin and muscles are more resilient to cold temperatures than fat tissues. Fat cells are much more susceptible to the consistent freezing temperatures of CoolSculpting. The treatment freezes stubborn, undesired fat cells without harming your skin or other tissues. With built-in safety protocols, the CoolSculpting device shuts down automatically if it senses the skin is getting too cold.

Typically, CoolSculpting procedures take 45 to 60 minutes per session, depending on the size of the treated area. Most patients achieve their CoolSculpting goals following 2 to 3 treatments per area scheduled 6 to 8 weeks apart.

CoolSculpting results appear gradually in 1 to 3 months as it takes the body time to eliminate the treated fat cells. Generally, full results are visible within 6 months.

It’s important to note that CoolSculpting is a body contouring treatment rather than a weight loss procedure. Dr. Sanniec recommends patients should be within 20 to 30 pounds of their ideal weight. Maintaining your CoolSculpting results requires a commitment to a healthy diet and exercise routine.

Am I a Good Candidate for CoolSculpting?

Preparing for Your CoolSculpting Session in Mesa, AZ

It’s important to be in good overall health before your CoolSculpting treatment. Dr. Sanniec and his team will provide thorough instructions on preparing for your treatment. While Dr. Sanniec will customize each CoolSculpting session for each patient, here is some general information.

  • Stay well-hydrated before and after your procedure. Avoid alcohol and caffeine as they can contribute to dehydration.
  • Smoking is detrimental to your overall health and can greatly impact your results. As such, Dr. Sanniec recommends patients stop smoking and all nicotine products for at least 2 weeks.
  • Maintain your healthy diet before and after your treatment.
  • Follow your pre-procedure medication protocol as determined during your consultation with Dr. Sanniec. This may include avoiding blood-thinning medications, anti-inflammatory drugs, or herbal supplements that may increase bleeding for 3 to 6 days.

What to Expect on the Day of Your CoolSculpting Treatment

Come to your appointment with clean, moisturized skin free of makeup. You’ll meet with Dr. Sanniec and our aesthetic specialists to review the details of your CoolSculpting treatment and answer any final questions you might have.

During your CoolSculpting treatment, your specialist will apply a gel membrane to form a barrier between the skin and the applicator. The applicator will create vacuum pressure and extreme cold; however, the area will become temporarily numb after 10 to 15 minutes. Following CoolSculpting, the treated areas are massaged to help eliminate frozen fat cells.

CoolSculpting is typically well-tolerated by most patients. Patients use their treatment time to read, watch a show, nap, or scroll social media.

Depending on the number of treatment areas, your CoolSculpting procedure may take 45 to 60 minutes per area.

What to Expect After Your CoolSculpting Treatment in Glendale, AZ

Following your CoolSculpting treatments, you can resume most normal activities without downtime. You may notice slight redness, swelling, or potential numbness around the treated sites. These side effects will gradually subside over the next few days. Dr. Sanniec may recommend warm compresses or a heating pad to reduce soreness in the treated areas.

Follow Dr. Sanniec’s instructions thoroughly after your Arizona CoolSculpting treatment. He may recommend:

  • Staying hydrated
  • Wearing compression garments
  • Massaging the treated area to help break down and flush frozen fat
  • Eat a healthy diet with high-fiber foods, lean proteins, and fresh fruits and vegetables
  • Avoiding sun exposure, strenuous exercise, and consuming excess alcohol or caffeine

How Soon Will I See My Arizona CoolSculpting Results?

After your CoolSculpting treatment, you will see gradual, natural-looking body-contouring results within a few weeks to months as the body flushes the fat cells. The appearance of the treated areas will continue to improve as your body adjusts to its new contours. To achieve your goals, however, you may require multiple CoolSculpting sessions.

It’s important to understand that CoolSculpting does not replace exercise or proper nutrition to achieve your fitness goals. Similarly, CoolSculpting will not give you the same level of definition and transformation as a surgical procedure like liposuction. However, continuing your healthy lifestyle habits and following Dr. Sanniec’s post-treatment recommendations can help you maintain your CoolSculpting results.
