HB: How does CoolSculpting work?
CoolSculpting is exactly what it sounds like it is: the sculpting of your body through the aid of cooling. When the temperature of your body’s fat cells hit around 40 degrees, they die with no harm to the nearby organs or skin. This results in about a 20% reduction in fat cells in the treated area, taking between two and four months for the full effects to be seen. However, there is no downtime, anesthesia, surgery, or needles, making this non-invasive procedure easy.
HB: Which body parts are most commonly targeted by CoolSculpting?
Almost any area of the body may be treated with CoolSculpting, but some of the most popular areas include abs, flanks, back (Bra Fat), thighs, and even the chin!
HB: What are the benefits of CoolSculpting?
Each of us has a certain amount of fat cells that we are born with. Some of these cells are more stubborn than others, and they may be resistant to even the healthiest diet and most targeted exercise regimen. At Xanadu Med Spa we like offering CoolSculpting because:

CoolSculpting offers the most advanced fat-reduction technology in the industry, and it is the only FDA-cleared, non-surgical fat-reduction procedure available. Through controlled cooling, stubborn fat that is resistant to diet and exercise is treated. The result is smoother, more appealing contours. The treatment can take about 35 minutes and is performed at our med spa during your lunch break. It’s the coolest, most innovative, non-surgical, and natural way to reduce that stubborn fat.
HB: Who is a good candidate? Who isn't?
CoolSculpting is not a weight-loss device, so the ideal patient should be within 10 to 15 pounds of their ideal body weight. If the patient needs more, they should concentrate on a weight loss program first (note, we also provide medical weight loss support). The best candidates really are people with relatively small pockets of fat in the area of concern that is resistant despite a healthy diet and exercise, an area that can be pinched or grabbed and is relatively soft as opposed to firm.
HB: What are the recovery and aftercare like?
The procedure is relatively easy and so is recovery. The patient may experience some discomfort in the treated area for a few weeks as the frozen cells die off and release through the lymphatic system. However, the patient may go back to work even on the same day as the procedure.
