Coolsculpting

CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting is the leading non-invasive fat-reduction treatment.  It’s an innovative way to contour your body by freezing unwanted fat. It involves no surgery, needles or anaesthesia and has minimal downtime.

Fat freezing, involves cooling targeted fat cells to 4 degrees Celsius. At that temperature, the fat cells die and over the coming weeks are naturally processed by your body and removed.

Based on Cryolipolysis technology, CoolSculpting is the only FDA-cleared device that involves no surgery, anaesthesia, needles or downtime. In fact, treating one area of the body can take just 35-45 minutes, depending on which area and the size of area being treated. The treatment gives you long-term results that you can maintain through healthy diet and exercise. Areas of the body that can be treated with Coolsculpting include:

• Flanks (love handles)
• Inner & Outer thighs
• Upper arms (bingo wings)
• Male chest area.
• Submental region (double chin)
• Abdomen (tummy)
• Bra fat
• Back fat
• Underneath the buttocks (banana roll)

The benefits

Whether you’re looking to sculpt and enhance your body shape, get rid of stubborn fat, or just look and feel comfortable in your clothes again, CoolSculpting could be the answer. The process involves no needles, requires no anaesthetic and there’s no downtime following treatment, so you can go about your daily life after treatment without any healing time. CoolSculpting permanently and safely removes 20-25% of the fat cells in one treatment session to the treated area and once the fat cells have crystallised (frozen) they die and will not come back.  They are gone for good!

The treatment process involves the following:

1. You will need to book in with spa810 for a consultation where a therapist will create a bespoke treatment plan for you. You can discuss what results you would like to see and ask any questions about the treatment.   
2. You will then make an appointment for your treatment which might take from 35 minutes to a couple of hours depending on how many areas you would like treated. After your treatment, you should be able to return to normal activities with minimal downtime.
3. Within a 12-week period, you will start seeing the results as CoolSculpting delivers controlled cooling to selectively target the fat cells underneath the skin while leaving the skin itself unaffected.  The treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen), then die and naturally removed from the body.

Fat cells after a treatment

Once the fat cells are frozen they die and are naturally processed and eliminated, so they won’t migrate to another area of your body, so there’s no change to fat cells in untreated areas.

Please note results may vary from person to person.
