What Is CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is a fat reduction treatment used to sculpt and mold the body by freezing away stubborn fat cells without surgery. The technique includes the use of regulated cooling (cryolipolysis) to freeze fat cells so that they may be organically flushed from your body to create a tauter silhouette. At Excel Regenerative Medicine, guided by Dr. Shail Singh, we use advanced CoolSculpting to help you meet your aesthetic goals. Schedule a consultation at one of our offices in San Jose, El Dorado Hills, or Antioch, CA to learn more about cryolipolysis with CoolSculpting and decide if it is the right one for you.

  • Reduction of stubborn fat cells
  • FDA-approved, safe, and effective treatment
  • No downtime or recovery, compared to more invasive procedures like liposuction
  • Natural-looking, gorgeous results that you should see almost instantaneously

Who Qualifies For CoolSculpting?

While this noninvasive technique has shown to be beneficial for both men and women of different age groups, those most likely to benefit from CoolSculpting:

  • Are within 30 pounds of their goal weight
  • Struggle with difficult areas of fat that do not respond to natural weight loss efforts
  • Don’t want or do not qualify for surgery
  • Understand realistic expectations for the results of their treatment

How Does CoolSculpting Work?

Since the CoolSculpting procedure is nonsurgical, you can return to your normal activities following the procedure. In most cases, you can return to work or school immediately after your procedure. Symptoms of the treatment usually include bruising, swelling, stinging, redness, and tenderness of the treated site. These symptoms are temporary and usually subside in the hours after your procedure. You should expect to notice results in as little as three weeks, with the most impressive results appearing 1 – 3 months after your CoolSculpting treatment.

What Can I Expect From CoolSculpting?

First, you will have a consultation with Dr. Singh to go over your CoolSculpting treatments. For the actual procedure, a specialized gel pad and the CoolSculpting handpiece will be applied to the treatment area, and cryolipolysis will begin. The cooling technology, delivered through the applicator, will target and freeze the fat. You may experience coolness while receiving the treatment, but this should not cause any major discomfort. Because the applicator uses suction to pull the fat from the predetermined treatment area, you should expect to feel a small amount of pulling or pinching, but these will be normal sensations.
