In recent years, non-invasive machines have received widespread attention because they can directly and accurately improve local obesity (those stubborn obesity areas that cannot be changed by diet and exercise), and do not require patients to undergo general anesthesia and a lengthy recovery period. This is the best treatment method that patients cannot refuse.
Among the many non-invasive slimming machines, coolsculpting machines are the most popular. Patients who have tried coolsculpting treatment have commented: After 2 sessions of treatment, the treatment results are similar to liposuction surgery, but coolsculpting does not require anesthesia during treatment, and the whole process will be more comfortable.
So is coolsculpting really effective? What is it like before and after the treatment? This article will introduce you to real coolsculpting before and after cases.
What is Coolsculpting?
Coolsculpting is a non-invasive body sculpting treatment that uses the fact that fat cells are not cold-tolerant to cause natural apoptosis in the fat cells after a reaction at low temperatures. The fat cells are then excreted from the body through the body’s metabolism. This process is safe, does not require anesthesia, and does not cause any wounds. Compared with liposuction in the past, the comfort level is greatly improved, and most people’s acceptance has also increased as a result.
How does Coolsculpting Work?
The freezing point of water is 0℃, while the freezing point of fat is 4℃. Fat cells will undergo irreversible apoptosis after experiencing this temperature for a period of time!
Coolsculpting is to use the triglycerides in human fat to transform into solids at a low temperature of 4℃, and to deliver the freezing energy precisely controlled by the non-invasive freezing energy extraction device to the designated fat-dissolving parts, so as to eliminate the fat cells in the designated parts in a targeted manner. After the fat cells in the designated parts are cooled to a specific low temperature, the triglycerides are transformed from liquid to solid. After crystallization and aging, they are excreted from the body through metabolism, and the body fat gradually decreases, thus achieving the body shaping effect of local fat dissolution.
For example, just like when we wash dishes with cold water in winter, the water and oil in the dishes will separate at low temperatures, and the fat will form thick crystals at this time. Coolsculpting uses this characteristic of fat to shape the body at a specific point.
Coolsculpting Treatment Process
1. Fat Diagnosis and Assessment
The first step is a face-to-face consultation between the patient and the doctor. The doctor will first understand the patient’s fat loss requirements, and then use instruments to evaluate the current body fat percentage, including the size, angle, coverage, etc. of the fat mass. After the evaluation, a 360° before picture of the area where fat loss is required will be taken so that the subsequent process can be optimized. At this time, the doctor will give fat loss suggestions and plans based on the patient’s situation (different handpieces are selected for different areas).
2. Machine Startup and Treatment
After determining the specific fat reduction location, the beautician asks the patient to lie on the treatment bed and apply a cold gel sheet to the area where fat reduction is needed to protect the skin; the corresponding vacuum applicator size will be selected according to the size of the area where fat reduction is needed, the parameters will be adjusted, and the treatment will be started after the treatment mark is placed.
Among them, the cooling handpiece uses vacuum pressure to attract the cold energy of the treatment area and continuously acts on the target fat area, automatically and selectively targeting the protruding fat to ensure that the low temperature energy acts locally without damaging other tissues. The patient experiences a slight cool feeling, which is gradually transmitted to the treatment area at the bottom layer of the skin, and gradually feels numb but painless, and the fat cells slowly disappear.
3. Post-treatment Massage
After the treatment, the beautician will give a slight massage to the treatment area and the surrounding area. This is to further destroy the crystallized fat cells mechanically, help the withered fat cells to be better discharged, and prevent the cells from reviving after heating.
Before and After Treatment
Coolsculpting Chin Before and After
Coolsculpting is very effective for chin treatment, and can remove the heavy fat around the chin. The above pictures are the before and after photos of the chin after coolsculpting. We can see that before the treatment, the patient had heavy fat on the chin and formed a double chin. After the treatment, the patient’s chin fat was greatly reduced, and the chin was more contoured. The chin was greatly changed before and after the treatment.
Coolsculpting Arms Before and After
Coolsculpting can remove excess fat from the arms. The pictures above are before and after photos of coolsculpting arm treatment. Before the treatment, the patient had obvious sagging fat on her arms, which greatly affected her figure. After the treatment, the excess fat on her arms was completely removed, and her arms were slender and smooth without a trace of fat. The patient was very satisfied with this.
coolsculpting Abdomen Before and After
Coolsculpting is the most effective treatment for abdominal fat. The above picture shows the abdomen before and after coolsculpting. Before the treatment, the patient had a protruding abdomen and a lot of fat, and had a great need for weight loss.
After 5 sessions of treatment, a lot of abdominal fat was removed, the abdominal area was greatly improved, and the patient was very satisfied with the tight and striated abdomen.
Advantages of Coolsculpting
1. Comfortable Treatment
Unlike traditional liposuction and lipolysis surgery, since it adopts non-invasive treatment, it does not require anesthesia, is non-invasive and painless, and the treatment time is one hour. It is comfortable and painless during the course, with no recovery period, and does not affect daily life and work.
2. Safe Treatment
Scientific research and development by Harvard University in the United States, the only FDA certification, with outstanding results, one treatment can reduce 25% of fat, 6-9 temperature sensors, detect the temperature once every second, extremely safe, and not easy to rebound, which is very consistent with the mentality of most people who do not want liposuction due to local obesity.
3. Effective Treatment
Freezing fat dissolving treatment, especially for the stubborn subcutaneous fat areas such as the waist, abdomen, back and inner and outer thighs, has a good effect.

Frequently Asked Questions About Coolsculpting
Why choose coolsculpting?
Because coolsculpting is a non-invasive treatment, and due to the characteristic of “fat not being able to tolerate cold”, the low temperature of -10℃ will only act on fat cells and will not harm other surrounding tissues. After the fat cells wither, they will be metabolized and excreted by the human body, making the entire post-operative care simpler and more comfortable. Compared with the long rest required after liposuction surgery in the past, or even a slightly slower walk in the first few days, the recovery period of coolsculpting is shortened several times. You can even go shopping immediately after the surgery or go to work the next day without affecting your daily routine at all.
Can coolsculpting really remove fat?
One coolsculpting treatment can reduce about 20-22% of fat. Unlike weight loss exercises, which only reduce the size of fat cells, cryolipolysis can actually reduce the number of fat cells. What are the benefits of reducing the number of fat cells?
Because after puberty, the number of fat cells in the human body will be fixed and will no longer change. Even if you lose weight or eat less, only the size of the fat cells will change; but after cryolipolysis treatment, the number of fat cells in the area is reduced, so “there is less space to store calories in the future”. Even if you gain weight in the future, only 80% of the original fat in the treated area will grow, and most of it will be transferred to other areas. In other words, the probability of fat regaining in the treated area in the future is extremely low.
Who is suitable for coolsculpting?
Coolsculpting is more suitable for localized fat and is more effective for some stubborn fat. Therefore, if you have fat accumulation in the abdomen, tummy, thighs, arms, back or accessory breasts, it is very suitable for coolsculpting treatment.
How long does it take for coolsculpting to take effect?
The fat cells in the human body are fixed throughout a person’s life. After one coolsculpting session, the number of fat cells can be reduced by about 22%, which fundamentally reduces the amount of fat.
The effect of coolsculpting is usually very obvious 2-3 months after treatment. After the patient receives treatment, the body will continue to metabolize the apoptotic fat cells. The effect can be seen after one treatment, and the effect will gradually appear in 3 months. Usually, the effect will be seen in a course of 3 months, and two more treatments will be added 3 months after the treatment to achieve the most significant effect!
After coolsculpting, will the fat rebound?
Strictly speaking, no. The principle of fat reduction in coolsculpting is to use the characteristic of fat not being able to tolerate cold. Through a low-temperature treatment device of about 4 ℃ – 5 ℃, the freezing wave is transmitted to the part with more fat. The state of water matrix cells remains unchanged, and the lipid matrix cells produce crystals and naturally die. And they are gently excreted from the body with the body’s metabolism, which fundamentally reduces the number of fat cells, completely reduces weight, and the effect is long-lasting, and it is difficult to rebound. After the treatment, as long as the daily routine and diet are normal, the effect can be maintained for a long time.
Because the amount of fat in each person is different, for people with too many fat cells, that is, those who are relatively obese, 2-3 sessions of treatment will be required, because 1 session of treatment cannot freeze all fat cells to death, and it needs to be carried out several times, so that more fat cells can be eliminated. The specific treatment plan still needs to be determined after an actual face-to-face consultation with a professional doctor.
Does coolsculpting have any side effects?
In theory, coolsculpting only freezes fat in the area. In the temperature range of 1℃-4℃, other tissues will not be frozen. And the low temperature can only reach the subcutaneous fat layer and will not affect the deep tissues in the abdominal cavity.
Coolsculpting treatment is non-invasive, no surgery or injections are required, and no recovery time is required. You can immediately return to normal work and life after the treatment. The intensity and time of fat reduction are determined by professional technicians according to the area to be treated. One treatment takes about 40 minutes to 60 minutes. During the treatment, you can relax, sleep, read or listen to music in a comfortable posture to get rid of excess fat.
How much does coolsculpting cost?
Coolsculpting equipment can be connected to vacuum applicators of various sizes to meet the needs of fat reduction in different parts of the body. The fee for cryolipolysis is calculated based on the size and number of vacuum applicators required for the fat reduction area. Due to individual differences, each person needs to treat different areas, and the size and number of treatment handpieces required are also different, so the treatment price varies from person to person.
What do coolsculpting patients feel?
During treatment: In the first few minutes, the treatment area may feel a deep pinch and cold sensation, which will gradually disappear as the treatment progresses.
At the end of treatment: There may be temporary redness, coldness, bruising, and numbness.
After treatment: There may be temporary redness, bruising, swelling, deep itching, numbness, or tenderness.
What areas can be treated with coolsculpting?
Coolsculpting can be used on the waist, abdomen, buttocks, back, neck, arms, legs and other areas.
