Coolsculpting is a treatment designed for those who need to lose stubborn fat that they could not get rid of through diet and exercise. It is a non-invasive procedure that has been cleared by the FDA to reduce fat through a process called cryolipolysis. Coolsculpting uses a fat freezing technology which is specially designed to control target cooling areas and eliminate your fat cells without damaging surrounding tissues. Freezing will be applied at temperature as low as -13°C to bind and get rid of accumulated stubborn fat. For safety, the machine has a Freeze Detect System which monitors heat extraction. The fat will then disappear through the body's natural detoxification system and the body will continue to get rid of fat cells up to 6 months after the treatment.

Although both Coolsculpting and Liposuction help to remove excess fat in certain areas of the body, they are different:
· Liposuction is a surgical procedure which requires anesthesia. Coolsculpting is not a surgical procedure.
· Liposuction involves suctioning out fat from targeted areas and requires around 2 weeks of recovery. Coolsculpting procedure has no downtime, and you can resume your daily activities right after the procedure.

Q1: When will I start see the results?
A1: Unlike liposuction, there won't be immediate results. You will start to see some changes in about 1 month after the treatment. Dramatic results will take around 2 months to appear, but your body will continue eliminating the fat cells for up to 6 months after the treatment.
Q2: How many treatments are necessary?
A2: Results can be seen after just 1 treatment. But some may need a few more to reach their specific goals. In 1 treatment, up to 20% of fat reduction can be achieved, hence the number of treatments largely depends on your condition. Our affiliated specialists will can advice you on this.
Q3: Will I be exposed to risk?
A3: Side effects like scarring, frostbites, dizziness and few others are very rare and minor.
Q4: Who should not undergo coolsculpting?
A4: Those who are pregnant or are attempting to become pregnant are not suitable for coolsculpting. Moreover, those with inflammatory skin conditions, cold agglutinin disease, cryoglobulinemia and paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria should avoid coolsculpting.
Q5: Is coolsculpting painful?
A5: It is relatively painless as this procedure does not involve any incision. In fact, you can straight away enjoy your daily life routine after the treatment.
Q6: How long will the results last?
A6: Coolsculpting eliminates fat cells permanently, meaning it freezes fat in the treated area for good. If you gain weight after coolsculpting, you will most likely to not have the same fat buildup in the treated area. However, extreme weight gain can cause nearby fat cells around the treated area to 'spread' into the vacant area, hence why it's important to maintain a healthy weight after the treatment.
