CoolSculpting in Atlanta, Georgia

Would you like to freeze those stubborn fat pockets away for good? That’s exactly what happens with CoolSculpting. The procedure freezes fat cells with a technology called cryolipolysis. The cells are processed naturally through the lymphatic system and eliminated permanently through waste. Slim Studio is an Atlanta CoolSculpting and Body Sculpting Center where you can learn more about CoolSculpting and what it can do for you!

Why CoolSculpting?

Even if you are dedicated to diet and exercise, many of us still have areas of fat deposits that just don't seem to budge.

“Love handles” are a good example. That’s where the literal fat freezing of CoolSculpting comes in. CoolSculpting targets the specific areas you can’t seem to lose on your own and gets rid of those fat cells permanently. You’ll love watching the "CoolSculpted" areas slim down in the days and weeks following your treatment.

What is CoolSculpting?

Technically known as cryolipolysis, this procedure can reduce the number of fat cells in the treated area between 20 and 25 percent. CoolSculpting’s unique technology uses controlled cooling to freeze and eliminate unwanted fat cells with minimal recovery time.

This procedure is FDA cleared and effective, with lasting and undeniable results. If your goal is to attack fat deposits, you may want to consider CoolSculpting as a solution. While CoolSculpting targets fat cells for elimination, it will not harm the surrounding tissues such as skin and muscle. CoolSculpting treats "subcutaneous" fat or fat directly under the skin. CoolSculpting does not address the deepest layer of fat, known as "viscereal" fat. Viscereal fat can only be minimized by diet and exercise. CoolSculpting is FDA cleared for reduction of fat in the following areas:

  • Abdomen
  • Back
  • Chin
  • Flanks
  • Inner Thighs
  • Outer Thighs
  • Upper arms

How do I know if CoolSculpting is right for me?

While CoolSculpting is a non-invasive procedure with little or no downtime, there are some people who are not candidates for the procedure.

Pregnant and nursing women should not undergo CoolSculpting, and it is contraindicated for anyone with a pacemaker or similar implanted device. Our certified CoolSculpting providers will review all the safety information with you at your consultation.

CoolSculpting is not a weight-loss treatment. You may be a good candidate for CoolSculpting if you are close to or at your ideal weight and have stubborn areas that you would like to address.

CoolSculpting Procedure

The typical application time is 30 minutes, although a few are longer in duration. The CoolSculpting applicators utilize vacuum to assist in placement, so the patient will feel some pulling in the area, then the cold is delivered. Following the treatment, a two-minute massage is performed to the area treated. During the treatment, you can watch TV, read, even use your phone or computer. Our technicians will keep you very comfortable during the quick treatment, and you can return to normal activities immediately after your treatment.

To begin the treatment, the skin is prepped with an alcohol wipe, then a gel pad is placed on the area to be treated. This gel pad is used to protect the skin. The cold is delivered through various CoolSculpting applicators, each designed for a specific body part.

There is no sedation involved with CoolSculpting. Patients may undergo annual CoolSculpting “touch-ups” or have the procedure repeated when needed. At Slim Studio in Atlanta, CoolSculpting is one of our Treat to Complete procedures. We encourage our Atlanta CoolSculpting patients to get the most out of their investment by undergoing the full treatment plan that is recommended.

CoolSculpting Recovery

CoolSculpting is non-invasive, making it safer than other fat removal procedures such as liposuction. Patients do not have to recover from surgery. There is little recovery time involved with CoolSculpting. After their treatment with CoolSculpting Atlanta patients can typically resume their normal activities immediately after their sessions. Any side effects are usually mild and may include:

  • Bruising

These mild side effects typically resolve in a few days, but can last longer. All common and rare side effects are thoroughly reviewed at your consultation.

CoolSculpting Results

CoolSculpting takes time to see results, but it is worth the wait. Most clients will begin to see results in about four weeks, with the most changes occurring between weeks four and nine. Your final result is considered to be at 12 weeks.

Most clients are very pleased with their results. We always recommend that diet and exercise be continued or even "stepped up" during the weeks and months that follow their CoolSculpting treatments. Many find that those stubborn areas are decreasing, so enter your journey with the mindset to "Treat to Complete.” As long as you do not gain weight after treatment, you should see yourself slim down as your clothes begin to fit better and those unsightly bulges are minimized!

CoolSculpting FAQs

At Slim Studio, we have found that our patients have a number of questions regarding CoolSculpting treatments. Any kind of life-changing treatment, such as CoolSculpting, should be carefully considered. Therefore, it is completely understandable that one would want to obtain as much information as possible before undergoing any procedure.

Below, we have provided you with a few frequently asked questions and their corresponding answers to help you feel more acquainted with the procedure, from the different areas we treat to whether or not you’d be a good candidate, to recovery time. If you find that you still have a few more questions, you are more than welcome to contact our office to set up a complimentary consultation.

Patients may experience some mild discomfort during the first few minutes of the CoolSculpting treatment, but the area being treated becomes numb in a few minutes, and you don't feel the cold following the numbness. You may expect to feel some soreness and tenderness following the treatment, and the numbness may persist for several weeks, then will go away. At your consultation, the Slim Studio staff will thoroughly review everything to expect during the treatment, and all safety information.

The side effects of CoolSculpting are generally mild, but one of the rare side effects of CoolSculpting is Paradoxical Hyperplasia. This uncommon side effect causes the tissues in the treated area to become raised and firm, and liposuction is the corrective treatment to eliminate Hyperplasia.

Generally, a good candidate is someone who has noticeable bulges in certain areas. We suggest that you set up a consultation so that you can discuss exactly which areas you’re looking to address with CoolSculpting so that one of our practitioners can aptly determine what will best serve you.

CoolSculpting costs depend on the size of the treatment area and the number of sessions. At Slim Studio, we encourage our patients to Treat to Complete. That means following the treatment plan that our experts will create for you, they will guide you on how many treatments are needed to achieve the shape you desire. Slim Studio’s CoolSculpting pros are all certified by CoolSculpting as expert providers. If you want optimal results, choose the experts and you will find that Slim Studio is the place for you.

Once the fat cells have been frozen, they shall naturally die off, and the body will then dispose of them. The treated fat cells will be permanently removed from your body through natural physical processes.

You will experience some slight pressure and a cold sensation in the targeted areas. As your body acclimates to the temperature, this sensation will diminish. Most patients are able to sit back and relax, read, watch TV, work on their laptop, or even catch a nap.

Over one million CoolSculpting procedures have been performed successfully and safely, worldwide. CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared.

Typical side effects include a feeling of temporary numbness, redness, swelling, bruising, firmness, tingling, stinging and slight pain in the targeted areas. The CoolSculpting procedure is not for everyone. You should not have the CoolSculpting procedure if you suffer from cryoglobulinemia or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria. We encourage you to set up a consultation with one of our practitioners, to discuss if the CoolSculpting treatment is right for you.

CoolScupting is a cosmetic procedure and is not covered by insurance.

CoolSculpting is a non-invasive, non-surgical treatment that uses no anesthesia, needles, or knives. There is little to no downtime and minimal recovery with CoolSculpting. Liposuction is an invasive, surgical procedure that may require general anesthesia, there is recovery and downtime required with surgery.

There is little recovery period necessary with CoolSculpting. Most patients can resume normal activities immediately after treatment.

As CoolSculpting is a non-surgical treatment, you can feel free to return to your normal activities immediately following your procedure, if you wish.

Some patients begin to see results as quickly as three weeks after their initial treatment. You will continue to see changes in your body for approximately six months, as your body will continue to flush out the crystallized fat cells.

No, it is not necessary to see results. However, many patients feel a renewed sense of motivation after their body contouring procedure and want to maintain their new figure by taking better care of themselves.

Many patients wind up taking even better care of their bodies after enjoying the results from their CoolSculpting procedure. However, if you find that you do gain weight, you will likely put on weight evenly, not just in the treated areas.
