What Are the Most Effective Areas for CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is a highly effective fat reduction treatment. However, it does not target all types of fat. Of the different kinds of fat in your body, CoolSculpting mainly targets subcutaneous fat, which is the pinchable fat that lies directly underneath the skin. The other type of fat, which CoolSculpting does not target, is visceral fat. Visceral fat is located beneath your muscle walls, particularly in the abdominal cavity around the organs. If an individual has excess visceral fat, it is usually linked to medical conditions that cannot be addressed via CoolSculpting.

Concerning subcutaneous fat, it can be quite challenging to eliminate, even after diet, exercise, and other healthy weight management practices have got you close to your goal weight or body mass index (BMI). For this reason, CoolSculpting is an excellent “clean-up” treatment option that deals with those troublesome areas that are impervious to healthy weight management habits.

CoolSculpting effectively eliminates the subcutaneous fat in those troublesome areas by freezing the fat cells to a temperature that triggers the natural death and decomposition of those cells. As the fat cells decompose, they are eliminated from your body through the lymphatic system, which delivers them to your kidneys and liver, preparing them to exit your body through urination.

The CoolSculpting procedure involves a small wand-shaped vacuum device that suctions the skin in the treatment area until the skin contacts the cooling panel, which numbs the skin and freezes the fat cells.

Since the CoolSculpting applicator covers a small area, it allows this procedure to be performed on small and hard-to-reach places like the submental and submandibular areas below your chin and jawline in ways that are easily tailored to each patient’s needs and treatment goals. As such, CoolSculpting is one of the most effective treatments for addressing unwanted fat underneath the chin and jawline, often referred to as a double chin.

CoolSculpting is great at reducing subcutaneous fat in the back and bra area for individuals looking to improve their figure in that area. As with submental and submandibular fat, CoolSculpting can get at harder-to-reach regions in the back, such as the armpit area, for fat reduction purposes as well.

If your upper arms need some fat reduction attention, CoolSculpting is a great option. On average, patients can expect anywhere from 20 to 80 percent reduction in unwanted arm fat from CoolSculpting.

As long as you are close to your goal weight and BMI, unwanted belly fat will vanish like a drop of water on a hot stove with CoolSculpting, though the metaphor is reversed as the fat is frozen, not melted! Most patients who undergo CoolSculpting to eliminate belly fat can expect to reduce the fat layer thickness by approximately 20 to 25 percent.

Even though the term “love handles” is often used lightheartedly, not everyone feels comfortable having them on their body. If you can relate, you may be happy to hear that CoolSculpting provides an effective solution to love handles. With CoolSculpting, you can tailor the results to achieve a subtler curve to your hips and flanks. Come to En Vogue Medi-Spa to discover the benefits of CoolSculpting for yourself!
