Now you can get rid of love handles, bra-fat, and stomach pouches with our advanced CoolSculpting procedure.
What is CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting is a non-invasive alternative for fat reduction and cellulite removal treatment. It targets stubborn fat areas that resist diet and exercise. It works by freezing fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body.
This process is gentle and requires no surgery, needles, or downtime, making it a popular choice for people who want to reduce fat without going under the knife. This treatment is especially effective in areas like love handles, bra fat, and stomach pouches. These areas are often difficult to slim down with regular exercise and healthy eating alone.
CoolSculpting can help contour these areas and create a more toned appearance, reducing fat in these areas by 20–25 percent. It’s a great solution for anyone looking to eliminate unwanted fat with no invasive procedures or recovery time.
At Profile MD, Dr. Jared Mallalieu and Dr. Ross VanAntwerp offer advanced CoolSculpting treatments in Maryland. Their expertise ensures each patient gets a personalized plan to achieve the best results.
Whether you’re looking to reduce stubborn fat or improve body contours, CoolSculpting offers a safe, effective, and convenient way to achieve your goals. Experience a more sculpted body without the hassle of surgery or long recovery times—in as little as three weeks.
How CoolSculpting Works
CoolSculpting works through a process called cryolipolysis, a fat-freezing technology that targets unwanted fat cells. “Cryo” refers to extreme cold, while “lipolysis” is the breakdown of fat. This method uses controlled cooling to freeze fat cells in the targeted area. Once frozen, the fat cells are gradually broken down and eliminated by your body naturally through its waste-removal systems.
During the CoolSculpting procedure, specially designed applicators gently suction the area of unwanted fat between two cooling panels. These panels then freeze the fat cells beneath the skin while leaving the surrounding tissues unharmed.
The cooling technology is carefully calibrated to target only the fat cells, which are more sensitive to cold than other cells in the body. This ensures that only the fat is affected, while the skin and surrounding tissues remain unaffected and unharmed. CoolSculpting offers a safe, effective, and non-invasive way to reduce stubborn fat with no risk of damaging nearby tissues or organs.
Over time, your body processes the frozen fat cells and gradually eliminates them. As a result, the treated area will appear more sculpted and toned, with no need for surgery or recovery time. This process is gradual, so you may start seeing results within a few weeks, with full results becoming visible in a few months.
Benefits of CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting offers many benefits that make it a popular choice for those looking to reduce stubborn fat areas resistant to diet or exercise without the need for surgery. Here are some of its advantages:
- Non-surgical and non-invasive: CoolSculpting is completely non-surgical, meaning there are no incisions, needles, or anesthesia involved. The treatment uses controlled cooling to freeze fat cells, making it a safe and effective option without the need for invasive procedures.
- No downtime—patients can return to daily activities immediately: One of the biggest advantages of CoolSculpting is that there’s no downtime required. After the treatment, you can easily return to your normal routine, whether it’s work, exercise, or other activities, with no need for recovery time.
- Natural-looking, gradual fat loss over time: Unlike drastic weight loss methods, CoolSculpting offers gradual fat reduction. Over the next few weeks to months, patients will notice a more toned and sculpted appearance as their body naturally eliminates the frozen fat cells.
- FDA-cleared for multiple treatment areas: CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared to treat various areas of the body, including the abdomen, thighs, love handles, bra fat, and more, giving you the flexibility to target multiple stubborn fat spots.
These benefits make CoolSculpting a convenient and effective option for body contouring.
Common Treatment Areas
CoolSculpting offers exceptional flexibility, allowing you to target and treat specific areas where stubborn fat tends to accumulate. Whether you’re looking to slim down or sculpt your body, the procedure can be customized to meet your unique goals. The CoolSculpting treatment is effective in addressing fat cells in several common trouble spots:
- Abdomen: CoolSculpting can target abdominal fat cells, helping to reduce belly bulges and provide a flatter, more toned look.
- Love handles (flanks): The sides of the waist, often referred to as love handles, can be tricky to slim down. CoolSculpting effectively targets these areas, helping to smooth and shape the contour of your waistline.
- Thighs (inner and outer): CoolSculpting can address thigh fat and bulges, making it easier to achieve slimmer, more defined legs.
- Double chin: CoolSculpting can help reduce fat beneath the chin, giving you a more defined jawline.
- Upper arms: CoolSculpting can target and reduce the fat in this area, helping to improve the overall shape of your arms.
- Back and bra fat: CoolSculpting is also effective in treating unwanted fat along the back and under the bra line, areas that can be difficult to tone with regular exercise.
This versatility makes CoolSculpting an ideal option for people looking to address multiple problem areas with a non-invasive solution.
What Is the CoolSculpting Procedure?
The CoolSculpting procedure is relatively quick and non-invasive. It allows you to achieve long-term body goals without taking you away from your everyday life. Just let your body do the work after the procedure, where frozen fat cells will be naturally discarded, leaving your body toned and sculpted.
Here’s what to expect every step of the way:
Consultation
Your journey to a more toned and sculpted body begins with an initial consultation. During this session, Dr. Mallalieu or Dr. VanAntwerp will discuss your goals, identify the areas of fat you’d like to target, and perform an evaluation to create a personalized treatment plan. This plan will be designed to help you feel more confident and comfortable in your body.
During the Treatment
CoolSculpting is a 1-3 hour in-and-out procedure that uses a three-step process to freeze and eliminate unwanted fat cells. The treatment typically follows three steps:
Step 1: Suction and Cooling Panel
A specialized cooling panel is applied to the targeted area. The panel uses gentle suction to pull the skin into firm contact with the cooling plates, ensuring that the fat cells are evenly exposed to the cold.
Step 2: Freezing of Fat Cells
The cooling technology is directed deep into the skin, reaching the fat cells while maintaining a precise temperature that freezes only the fat cells, not the surrounding tissues. This targeted freezing triggers the natural process of fat cell death (apoptosis).
Step 3: Natural Elimination of Fat Cells
Over the following weeks, the body’s immune system sends signals to gradually digest the dead fat cells. These fat cells are broken down and transported via the lymphatic system, where they are processed and eliminated from the body. This process can take anywhere from three to 12 weeks, resulting in a more sculpted, toned appearance.
Comfort and Safety
Your comfort and safety are our top priorities throughout the CoolSculpting process. While the targeted fat cells are exposed to freezing conditions, causing them to naturally break down, you won’t feel any pain. Instead, you’ll experience only cold, numbness, and mild tugging. The procedure is not painful, and any initial discomfort from the cooling sensation quickly subsides as the area numbs.
Post-Treatment Process
In the weeks following your procedure, your body will naturally eliminate the frozen fat cells. Over the course of three to 12 weeks, the body sends cytokines and other inflammatory mediators to the treated area, gradually breaking down the dead fat cells.
The lipids from these fat cells are slowly released and transported through the lymphatic system, where they are processed and eliminated. During this time, you can expect a 20 to 23% reduction in fat cells in the treatment area, leaving you with a more toned and sculpted appearance.
Results & Expectations
As your body continues to naturally eliminate the frozen fat cells, your results will gradually improve over time. Initial changes typically start to appear within 3 weeks following your CoolSculpting session, with the full results becoming visible between 2 to 4 months.
During this period, your body will continue to process and remove the treated fat cells, leaving you with a more sculpted and toned appearance. The process is gradual, ensuring that the fat loss looks natural and doesn’t happen too quickly.
However, it’s important to note that maintaining a healthy lifestyle is key to keeping your results long-lasting. Regular exercise, a balanced diet, and stable body weight are essential for sustaining the improvements achieved through CoolSculpting.
While the fat cells that are eliminated during the treatment won’t return, new fat cells can develop if you gain weight. By staying active and mindful of your eating habits, you can help preserve your results and enjoy a more defined and contoured body for the long term.
CoolSculpting offers permanent fat reduction in the treated areas, but maintaining consistent habits is crucial for ensuring that your results are as lasting as possible. When combined with a healthy lifestyle, the benefits of CoolSculpting can be long-lasting, giving you confidence in your newly sculpted figure.
