Are You a Candidate for CoolSculpting®?

Are you at or close to your goal weight? Do you eat a balanced diet and work out regularly? And despite your good habits, you can’t seem to get rid of your belly flab or double chin? You might be a candidate for CoolSculpting®.

At Celebrity Medi Spa in Allen, Texas, we provide many aesthetic treatments to help you look and feel your best. With CoolSculpting, we can help get rid of unwanted pockets of fat and improve your shape without surgery or downtime.

Does CoolSculpting sound like the right treatment for you? Here’s how it works and who makes a good candidate for this nonsurgical body-contouring treatment.

Freezing away the fat with CoolSculpting

Getting rid of fat without surgery or downtime? We know — CoolSculpting sounds too good to be true, but that’s the power of science.

The scientists behind CoolSculpting developed a system that freezes your fat cells, something they call cryolipolysis, without affecting any surrounding cells or tissues. Research indicates that fat cells are more vulnerable to cooling temperatures than other cells.

The CoolSculpting freezing process disrupts the integrity of the fat cell, which destroys it. Your body then gets rid of the fat cells altogether. 

With one treatment, CoolSculpting can destroy 20-25% of fat in the targeted area. It takes your body a little time to remove the fat cells, but you should start seeing improvements in your shape within a month, and final results about six months after you complete your sessions. 

CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared to treat many areas of the body that like to hold onto fat, including your thighs, buttocks, belly, and back. We also use CoolSculpting to improve your profile by getting rid of your double chin. 

Could you be a candidate for CoolSculpting?

Yes, CoolSculpting is an amazing body-contouring tool, but it’s not a weight-loss procedure. 

That being said, you may be a candidate for CoolSculpting if you’re at or close to your goal weight. That means you should have a body mass index of 30 or less.

If you’re still in weight-loss mode, we recommend holding off on CoolSculpting. If you get body contouring too soon, you may not get the results you want. If you’re struggling to get to your goal weight, we have weight-loss services that can help. 

Aside from your weight, we also take your habits into consideration. The ideal candidate for this nonsurgical body-contouring treatment follows a balanced diet and gets regular exercise, but still has some pinchable fat they can’t get rid of. 

Maintaining results: Habits matter

Another benefit of CoolSculpting is that once the fat cells are gone, they never come back. That means your results are permanent, as long as you maintain your weight.

CoolSculpting gets rid of fat cells, but the fat cells that remain have the ability to grow. When you eat more calories than your body burns, those extra calories get stored in your remaining fat cells. That’s what causes them to grow.

If you’re already in the habit of making good food choices and getting regular physical activity, then it’s going to be a lot easier for you to maintain your weight and your CoolSculpting results. Creating healthy lifestyle habits is one of the core principles of our weight-loss program. 

The only way to truly know if you’re a candidate for CoolSculpting is to schedule a consultation at Celebrity Medi Spa. One of our highly trained practitioners can talk to you about this body-contouring treatment and determine if it’s right for you.
