Questions to Ask During Your Initial ConsultationCoolSculpting is a non-invasive procedure that can remove up to 28 percent of fat in a single session. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after treatment, and there has never been a single report of a serious side effect from CoolSculpting.

The procedure was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2012. Since then, millions of men and women have turned to CoolSculpting to contour their abdomen, arms, chin, back, thighs, buttocks, hips, and love handles.

Unlike traditional liposuction, CoolSculpting does not leave a suture scar because there are no incisions involved. This also means there is a lower risk of infection.

Asking questions during your initial consultation will help you relax and give you an idea of the results you can expect. Be sure to ask your practitioner these five questions before your procedure:

  1. Are the results permanent?

Yes. As long as you maintain your weight, your results will be permanent.

CoolSculpting is based on the science of cyrolipolysis. Fat cells die when exposed to cold temperatures, and your body then expels those cells naturally. Fat cells do not grow back; however, your existing cells can expand, which is why it is so important that you maintain a consistent diet and exercise routine.

  1. What does CoolSculpting feel like?

CoolSculpting feels, well, cold. You might feel a slight stinging or pressure when the treatment begins, but this will abate as the area becomes numb. The procedure is so comfortable that patients often read, watch movies, play games, or take a nap during CoolSculpting.

  1. What should I expect during the treatment?

Your CoolSculpting practitioner will position the applicator on the target area. The applicator will suck your fatty tissue while simultaneously cooling it. You will notice a firm pull and mild pressure. Most sessions take about an hour, but yours may last longer if the treatment area is large.

  1. What Is the CoolSculpting Cost in Charlotte?

The cost of CoolSculpting depends on the size of the treatment area and the number of sessions you need to achieve the desired results. Many patients are satisfied after a single session.

  1. Am I a Good Candidate for the Procedure?

CoolSculpting is a versatile treatment that is effective for most men and women. However, as the U.S. National Library of Medicine explains, it is not a solution for obesity. If you are in good overall health and would like to contour specific areas of your body, you may be a good candidate for CoolSculpting.
