    The Science Behind CoolSculpting

    CoolSculpting eliminates fat through the science of cryolipolysis. In 2008, Harvard scientists published findings that confirmed freezing temperatures, when applied directly to subcutaneous fat in the body, induce fat cell death. The temperatures cause the fat cell walls to break down, an event known as apoptosis. The broken-down fat will be absorbed by macrophages and processed through the immune system. The surrounding tissues in the body will remain unaffected. Over the weeks following cryolipolysis, the body processes the destroyed fat cells. Eventually, the fat is eliminated from the body. This results in a slimmer, healthier-looking body contour.

It is a perfect option for patients who do not want to take any time off and do not need to see improvements in their thighs right away.

    Thigh CoolSculpting Procedure

    Thigh CoolSculpting treatment is quick and comfortable. Your session will be completed within 45 minutes and you will be back to your day in no time! When you arrive for your CoolSculpting procedure, the treatment area will be sterilized. A topical gel will be applied and the CoolSculpting applicator will be placed in the area of the thighs where fat elimination is desired. The applicator will suction to the skin to guarantee the accurate, consistent application of the controlled cooling. The applicator will emit freezing temperatures, while the surrounding skin will be heated to a comfortable temperature. Most patients say that they are aware of the cold temperatures for the first few minutes, then they feel absolutely comfortable during the remainder of their CoolSculpting.

    You can read, watch a show, or talk to a friend without any problems during your session. The type of applicator used to perform Thigh CoolSculpting will depend on if the inner and/or outer thighs will be addressed. The size of the fat deposit will also factor into which applicator you receive. Once your CoolSculpting session is complete, you will receive a massage in the treated area of your thighs. This post-procedure massage is clinically-proven to improve the percentage of fat broken down by the cryolipolysis. You can return to your day right away after your Thigh CoolSculpting!
