The Coolsculpting Facts

Cryolipolysis, commonly referred to as fat freezing, is a nonsurgical fat reduction procedure that uses cold temperature to reduce fat deposits in certain areas of the body.  The technique is based on the finding that fat cells are more susceptible to damage from cold temperatures than other cells, such as skin cells. The cold temperature injures the fat cells. The adipocytes go through a cellular damage process referred to as apoptosis. The injury triggers an inflammatory response by the body, which results in the death of the fat cells.  Macrophages, a type of white blood cell, and part of the body’s immune system, is “called to the injury location,” to rid the dead fat cells and debris from the body.  The procedure is designed to reduce localized fat deposits or bulges that do not respond to diet and exercise.  It is not intended for people with obesity. The technique has been patented under the name CoolSculpting™.

CoolSculpting™ is a proven, non-invasive procedure that utilizes the cryolipolysis technology to target and eliminate stubborn fat cells under the skin selectively.  It is the most extensively studied non-surgical technology for elimination of adipose tissue. It has been proven to be effective in animal models, in-vitro studies and in human clinical trials. Up to 25% of the subcutaneous fat can be eliminated in the treatment site in one application. It has the highest patient satisfaction ratings of all of the non-surgical fat loss devices.

Contour You is one of the original CoolSculpting™ providers in North Scottsdale, and we pride ourselves on our exceptional reputation.  Since 2014 and having performed thousands of successful CoolSculpting™ treatments, our team’s vast experience ensures you’re in the best hands possible.

CoolSculpting™ is an excellent solution for both men and women who are close to their ideal body weight for sculpting and refining your body shape. The FDA has approved CoolSculpting™ for fat reduction in various body areas such as the abdomen, flanks (love handles), inner and outer thighs, upper arms, back, beneath the chin (double chin), and the sub-buttock area, often called the “banana roll.”

Your CoolSculpting™ journey at Contour You starts with a complimentary consultation where we evaluate your body and discuss your goals. From there, we create a personalized treatment plan, potentially incorporating multiple sessions depending on your unique needs.

Though some clients notice changes as early as three weeks after their CoolSculpting™ session, the most dramatic results usually occur between one to three months post-treatment, as your body naturally eliminates the dead fat cells.

CoolSculpting™ is a safe and comfortable treatment. You might initially experience intense cold during the procedure, but this sensation typically dissipates within a few minutes. Any side effects are minimal and temporary, allowing clients to resume their normal activities immediately after treatment.

At Contour You, we have the utmost faith in CoolSculpting™’s ability to deliver stunning results, and we’re committed to helping clients achieve their body goals and self-esteem.
