The method of this technique is different from usually weight loss procedures, as fat cells are killed, rather than shrunk. Typically, when a patient exercises, their fat cells would get smaller as the lipids in the cells are slowly expended for energy.

With the use of Coolsculpting technology, the fat cells are completely removed from the area, completely preventing any further growth of fat. It is highly recommended that patients continue on a healthy diet and exercise routine after the treatment, as the remaining fats can still grow.

The treatment is simple, short and extremely comfortable. Patients only need to enter the aesthetic clinic once for about an hour per spot of treatment. It destroys on average 25% of fat cells in the area treated and is a walk-in, walk-out treatment with zero downtime.

Primary results can be expected after a few weeks, while full results after the treatment can be expected after a few months.
