What Is CoolSculpting?

Science-Backed Fat Elimination Without Surgery

CoolSculpting is the only FDA-cleared, non-surgical fat reduction treatment that uses Cryolipolysis™ technology to permanently destroy stubborn fat cells — with absolutely no surgery, no needles, and zero recovery time.

Developed by Harvard scientists, CoolSculpting exploits the fact that fat cells are more sensitive to cold than surrounding tissue. When exposed to precisely controlled cooling, fat cells undergo a natural cell death process called apoptosis. Over the following 4–12 weeks, your body's lymphatic system flushes out the destroyed cells naturally and permanently.

Once those fat cells are eliminated, they are gone forever. Unlike diet and exercise — which shrink fat cells but never eliminate them — CoolSculpting permanently reduces the number of fat cells in the treated area.

  • Permanently eliminates up to 20–25% of fat cells per cycle
  • FDA-cleared for safety and efficacy
  • Over 8 million treatments performed worldwide
  • No anesthesia, no incisions, no recovery
  • Clinically proven results in peer-reviewed studies

The Science

How CoolSculpting Works — Step by Step

The Cryolipolysis process is elegant, proven, and completely non-invasive. Here's exactly what happens during and after your treatment.

1

Applicator Placement

A specialized applicator is placed on the target area. It gently suctions the fat bulge between two cooling panels, ensuring precise, consistent cooling of the fat layer.

2

Controlled Cooling

The applicator delivers precisely controlled cooling to −11°C. Fat cells crystallize and begin the natural apoptosis (cell death) process. Surrounding skin and tissue is completely unharmed.

3

Manual Massage

After the applicator is removed, a 2-minute manual massage breaks up the treated area, amplifying fat cell elimination by up to 68% — an important step your provider performs immediately after each cycle.

4

Natural Elimination

Over the next 4–12 weeks, your immune system identifies and flushes out the dead fat cells through the lymphatic system. You gradually see and feel a slimmer, more contoured result.

Treatment Areas

9+ FDA-Cleared Body Areas

CoolSculpting has received FDA clearance for more body areas than any other non-surgical fat reduction treatment. Whether you're targeting your belly, chin, or knees — we have an applicator designed specifically for that area.

Abdomen

Upper and lower belly fat — the most commonly treated area. Ideal for stubborn "pooch" that diet can't remove.

Flanks / Love Handles

Side fat bulges above the hips. CoolSculpting is exceptionally effective for this area, often showing dramatic improvement.

Inner & Outer Thighs

Reduce thigh gap, saddlebags, and inner thigh rubbing. FDA-cleared applicators designed specifically for thigh contours.

Upper Arms

Target loose upper arm fat ("bat wings") for a more toned, defined arm contour — without surgery.

Back & Bra Fat

Eliminate back rolls and bra bulge — fat deposits that are notoriously resistant to exercise and diet.

Under Chin (Submental)

Reduce a double chin without surgery using the CoolMini applicator — a precise, targeted treatment for submental fat.

Under Buttocks

The "banana roll" — fat just under the buttocks — responds well to CoolSculpting for a lifted, more defined appearance.

Knees

Reduce fat deposits around the knees — a unique area that CoolSculpting can effectively address with the right applicator.

Your Results Journey

When Will You See Results?

CoolSculpting results develop gradually and naturally as your body processes the treated fat cells. Here's your typical timeline.

Day 1

Treatment Day — Zero Downtime

Your session lasts 35–75 minutes per area. You're relaxed, can use your phone, read, or work. Immediately after, you can drive, return to work, and resume all normal activities.

Wk 2–4

First Changes Appear

Some patients notice early softening in the treated area as fat cells begin the elimination process. Any minor redness or tenderness from treatment day has fully resolved.

Wk 6–8

Visible Results Developing

Most patients see clear, noticeable reduction in the treated area. Clothes fit differently. The contour is visibly slimmer and more defined.

Mo 3–6

Full Results — Permanent

Final results are visible at 3–6 months as all treated fat cells have been naturally eliminated. The reduction is permanent — those fat cells cannot return.

Am I a Candidate?

Who Is CoolSculpting Right For?

CoolSculpting is ideal for healthy adults who want to reduce specific pockets of stubborn fat that don't respond to diet and exercise.

The best candidates are people who are at or near their ideal body weight but have localized fat deposits — like belly fat, love handles, or inner thigh fat — that simply won't budge no matter how well they eat or how hard they train. CoolSculpting is a body contouring treatment, not a weight loss treatment.

Ideal Candidates:

  • Within 30 lbs of your ideal body weight
  • Have pinchable, visible fat bulges
  • Want to avoid surgery and recovery
  • Committed to maintaining a healthy lifestyle
  • Healthy adults with no contraindicated conditions

Not Ideal If You Have:

  • Cryoglobulinemia or cold agglutinin disease
  • Paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria
  • Loose skin (CoolSculpting is for fat, not skin laxity)
  • Obesity (more than 30 lbs over ideal weight)

Common Questions

CoolSculpting FAQs

CoolSculpting uses Cryolipolysis — controlled fat-freezing technology developed at Harvard — to permanently destroy fat cells. An applicator chills the targeted fat layer to −11°C. Fat cells crystallize and die through a process called apoptosis, while surrounding skin, nerves, and muscle remain completely unharmed. Over 4–12 weeks, your body naturally flushes out the dead cells.
Yes — completely permanent. The fat cells destroyed by CoolSculpting are permanently eliminated and cannot regenerate. Your body processes and removes them naturally. However, if you gain significant weight after treatment, remaining fat cells in the treated area (and elsewhere) can still expand, so maintaining a healthy lifestyle helps preserve your results long-term.
CoolSculpting has zero downtime — you can return to work, drive, exercise, and all normal activities immediately after your session. During treatment, you'll feel intense cold and pressure for the first 5–10 minutes, which subsides as the area becomes numb. After treatment, temporary redness, swelling, bruising, or tenderness in the area is normal and resolves within a few days to 2 weeks.
It depends on your goals and the area(s) being treated. Many patients achieve great results with 1–2 cycles per area. Some patients with larger areas or more ambitious goals may benefit from 3+ cycles. At your free consultation, our team will assess your body and recommend the optimal number of cycles and areas to achieve your specific results.
CoolSculpting at Lavoro Laser starts at $750 per cycle. Total cost depends on how many areas you treat and how many cycles per area your personalized plan recommends. We currently offer $500 off any new patient program, and CareCredit financing is available for flexible monthly payments. See our Pricing page or call 925-968-4208 for your personalized quote.
Absolutely — and many patients get their best results this way. Our most popular combination is CoolSculpting + EMSCULPT: CoolSculpting removes the fat while EMSCULPT builds muscle definition underneath, creating a sculpted, athletic look that neither treatment can achieve alone. You can also pair CoolSculpting with I-Lipo for enhanced inch loss, or add Cellulite Removal to smooth the skin afterward.
CoolSculpting ELITE is the latest generation of the CoolSculpting system. It features redesigned applicators with 18% more contact surface area for better fat reduction results, and it can treat two areas simultaneously — cutting treatment time in half. Ask about the version we use at your consultation.
CoolSculpting is not recommended for people with cryoglobulinemia, cold agglutinin disease, or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria — rare conditions where cold exposure can be dangerous. It is also not suitable for those with loose, saggy skin (a skin-tightening treatment like Opus Plasma may be more appropriate), or for those who are significantly obese. Your full medical history will be reviewed at your free consultation to confirm your candidacy.
