CoolSculpting at Spa Three Ten
-
CoolSculpting® is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive fat reduction treatment that uses controlled cooling to freeze and eliminate stubborn fat cells—without surgery or downtime. Backed by science and developed through Harvard research, CoolSculpting® targets fat beneath the skin without damaging surrounding tissue.
-
CoolSculpting utilizes cryolipolysis, which involves the use of controlled cooling to target and eliminate fat cells. This cooling triggers apoptosis, the process in which fat cells die. Once those cells have died, your body’s lymphatic system begins to eliminate those cells, leaving the treated area slimmer and more contoured.
-
CoolSculpting is FDA cleared for the following areas:
Abdomen
Flanks, or Love Handles
Under the Chin and Jawline
Thighs
Upperarms
Back
Under the glutes (banana rolls)
-
Once your CoolSculpting® provider has confirmed noninvasive cryolipolysis is right for you, they will discuss your body goals. Using this information, and their expertise, they’ll create a customized treatment plan, with a suggested number of treatment sessions to help you achieve your body goals. Most patients need at least 2 treatment sessions—typically spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart—to achieve desired results.
What to expect at your Coolsculpting Treatment:
-
Before your CoolSculpting Treatment:
1 week Pre-Treatment
Avoid anti-inflammatory/blood thinning medications one week before the procedure.
These include medications such as Aspirin and other NSAIDs, Vitamin E, Fish oil, Gingko Biloba, Ginseng, and St. John’s Wart.
Day of Treatment
Do not apply creams or lotions to treatment areas.
Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the treatment area.

As the procedure begins, a vacuum/suction applicator draws tissue into an applicator. The vacuum pressure may cause deep pulling, tugging, and pinching sensations in the treated areas. A surface applicator may cause sensations of pressure.
You also may experience intense stinging, tingling, aching, and cramping. These sensations generally subside as the areas become numb.
