We prioritize patient satisfaction above else, and because of that we have decided to stop offering Coolsculpting. Coolsculpting is a great tool for a small amount of people, and we find our liposuction results far outweigh Coolsculpting. We recommend you checking out the Coolsculpting Versus Liposuction page to learn why we prefer liposuction.
COOLSCULPTING VS LIPOSUCTIONThe CoolSculpting is World’s #1 non-invasive fat-freezing procedure is the only FDA-cleared, non-surgical fat-reduction treatment that uses controlled cooling to eliminate stubborn fat that resists all efforts through diet and exercise. The results are proven, noticeable, and lasting—so you’ll look great from every angle.
CoolSculpting® is a revolutionary new technology developed by Harvard scientists based on the fact that fat cells freeze at a higher temperature than skin, thus allowing the CoolSculpting® treatment to freeze fat without damaging the surrounding skin.
Imagine the possibilities when you don’t have to worry about surgery, anesthesia, pain or recovery. It is as easy as watching TV for an half an hour, reading a book, or sleeping while your fat is frozen away!
Fatty areas are suctioned into the CoolSculpting® applicator, which then cools the area to a temperature that causes fat cells to crystallize and die. This treatment is NOT intended for massive weight loss, but instead for spot treating problem areas, such as loves handles, stomach rolls, arm fat, back, or even chin in patients who are at or very close to their ideal body weight.
CoolSculpting® doesn’t require needles, anesthesia or surgery. There is no need of fasting, stopping your medications or take time off work. The treatment is fast and effective. You can read a book, work on your laptop or just relax because it’s safe and painless. Best of all, the results are noticeable and look natural. You’ll see fat reduction as early as three weeks after the initial treatment, with more visible results in one to three months. For more dramatic results, repeated treatments may be recommended.
After dieting and weight loss, fat cells get smaller but the number of fat cells stays the same.
When weight is gained, fat cells get bigger.
The CoolSculpting® fat-freezing procedure actually reduces the number of fat cells in treated areas by about 20% to 25%.
These fat cells are naturally processed and eliminated, so they won’t migrate to another area of your body. And, unlike what happens with other procedures, there’s no change to fat cells in untreated areas.
CoolSculpting® doesn’t require any recovery time. This is not a surgical procedure, so you don’t need to plan anything before you come or make any special plans for after the treatment.
When you come for your treatment, all we require for you to do is relax for 35 minutes while we do all the work. You might feel a vague ache in the treated area, but it will not keep you from going on with your regular activities.
Diet and exercise are great and should be a part of everybody’s lifestyle. If your diet is full of fast food and you do not exercise, CoolSculpting® is NOT your shortcut to a slimmer you.
CoolSculpting® is permanent, focused, effective fat reduction for men and women who are already in a good shape and have a bulge of stubborn fat that just won’t go away. To get rid of it would require lowering their body fat content to a point that may not be sustainable in the long term, and which would make them look sick overall.
CoolSculpting®, unlike diet and exercise, is able to focus on and reduce fat in a particular area.

The fat cells that are killed through CoolSculpting® will not grow back. Once these fat cells have been destroyed, the only way to get them back is by gaining a tremendous amount of weight.
CoolSculpting® is the solution for getting back the body you want, without surgery or downtime.
CoolSculpting® is a treatment that works. This is not a replacement for surgical liposuction or a healthy lifestyle. It is a revolutionary technology that allows us to treat patients that have been turned down for a liposuction procedure, because they are not good candidates.
All our CoolSculpting® patients are required to come in for a complimentary consultation to be screened by a CoolSculpting Specialist, who works alongside with Dr. Jugenburg to ensure that they qualify. Not all patients do. To be an ideal candidate for this procedure, you cannot be overweight and you need to be close to your ideal body weight. The amount of fat reduction is small, so if you think you have a lot of fat, perhaps a liposuction procedure would be better suited to achieve your goals.

The CoolSculpting® machine is only as good as the person operating it. That is why our CoolSculpting® experts attended the CoolSculpting® University that provides one-of-a-kind training and learning advanced techniques to help achieve maximal results.
A properly used CoolSculpting® treatment can create wonderful results. A poorly applied treatment can leave you without a visible result at best, a worse looking body at worst.
Your body stays with you for the rest of your life. Make sure have the right CoolSculpting® Specialist with a proper training treating you.
Aliya and Jovanna are our grads from CoolSculpting University. CoolSculpting University is an advanced level training course put up by CoolSculpting to help us provide you with the best possible results.
The new CoolMini applicator is uniquely designed for small areas of fat, including the submental area. The results, achieved in as little as 1-2 treatments, have been very encouraging with extremely high patient satisfaction and the same level of efficacy achieved with other CoolSculpting® applicators.
Discovered by Harvard scientists, the science behind CoolSculpting® is based on Cryolipolysis, which means destruction of fat cells via freezing.
The exposure of fat cells to almost sub-zero temperature causes crystalization of the fatty acids and subsequent death of fat cells. A very careful and controlled application of cold temperatures is required to avoid frostbite of the surrounding skin.
Researcher at Harvard medical school have performed experiments to determine the perfect balance of cryolipolysis vs skin preservation to make this technology safe and effective. FDA has tested and approved CoolSculpting® in 2010.
The CoolSculpting® machine generates controlled cold temperature which is applied to the skin through the hand-piece and allowed to act for approximately 35 minutes. During this time the patient is relaxing on a comfortable medical bed that is perfect for this treatment. The procedure requires no anesthesia, no sedation, and no pain killers.
After approximately 35 minutes, the applicator is removed, and the treated area is massaged. Additional areas can be treated next, or the patient can leave and come back next time they have 35 minutes free for a treatment.

Each application of CoolSculpting® takes 35 minutes. We can’t freeze all of you at once, therefore the mount of treatments depends on how large the area being targeted is. For example, the abdomen requires four CoolSculpting® applications 35 minutes each. Inner thighs require 1 treatment per inner thigh, thus 35 minutes to treat both sides. When you come in for your consultation our CoolSculpting® Specialist will assess you to determine how many treatments may be required to achieve your desired results.
The cost is $650 per area per treatment. Thus, if treating the abdomen, which requires four applications, the fee is $650 x4. Inner thighs require one treatment per side, with a fee of $650 x2.
Chin area is $750 per treatment.
The targeted tissue takes time to dissolve and it can take up to 3-6 months.
Yes. CoolSculpting® will destroy fat cells for good. However this procedure does not provide you with immunity to weight gain. If you do not maintain a healthy lifestyle and gain weight, remaining fat cells in your body will absorb your dietary fats and enlarge.
Immediately. There is NO downtime after the CoolSculpting® treatment. As soon as the treatment is completed, you can get up and go on without having to worry about any post-treatment restrictions.
Temporary local redness, bruising and numbness of the skin are common after the treatment and subside. Numbness can last up to a month. There are no cases of permanent numbness. Pain can develop up to one week after the treatment and this is also temporary and easily treated. No serious long-lasting side effects were encountered in any of the studies conducted on CoolSculpting®
There are three types of patients who are not ideal for CoolSculpting®.
If you are unsure whether or not you are a good candidate for CoolSculpting®, schedule a consultation with one of our experts who will assess you and suggest a treatment plan.
