What is CoolSculpting?

When looking to get CoolSculpting in Sarasota, it is important to know what it is. CoolSculpting is an FDA-approved noninvasive fat reduction procedure. It doesn’t require any incisions or anesthesia and can address stubborn areas of fat that you’ve been unable to target with diet and exercise.

How Does CoolSculpting Work?

CoolSculpting harnesses a patented cooling technology that stems from the science of cryolipolysis. During the procedure, it freezes and destroys your unwanted fat cells. Throughout the six months after your treatment, your body will digest the frozen fat cells through your lymphatic system.

Our providers can use CoolSculpting in Sarasota & Lakewood Ranch at Bowtique Med Spa to target fat cells on your:

  • Inner and outer thighs
  • Abdomen and flanks (love handles)
  • Chin and neck
  • Upper arms 
  • Bra and back fat

The Benefits of CoolSculpting

  • Precise targeting of stubborn fat: CoolSculpting can isolate and treat specific areas of unwanted fat that don’t respond to diet and exercise.
  • Completely noninvasive: No surgery, incisions, or anesthesia.
  • Long-lasting slimming results: Once the frozen fat cells are destroyed, they cannot return.
  • No downtime: Return to your normal daily activities right away.
  • Clinically proven technology: CoolSculpting is backed by scientific studies and FDA approval, offering results you can trust.

Am I a Good Candidate for CoolSculpting?

Ideal candidates for CoolSculpting are healthy adults who are close to their target weight but still have localized areas of stubborn fat. This treatment is not a solution for weight loss or obesity. If you're within 20–30 pounds of your goal weight and want a sleeker silhouette without surgery, CoolSculpting may be the right option for you. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your goals and create a treatment plan designed just for your body.

Your CoolSculpting Experience

To administer the treatment, one of our trained providers will place a gel pad and the CoolSculpting applicator on your skin. We will then slide the device over your skin to deliver controlled cooling to your unwanted fat. You may experience some mild pulling in the treatment area, but it shouldn’t be painful or uncomfortable.

Your provider will then massage your skin to break up the frozen tissue and jumpstart your body’s process of absorbing the targeted fat cells. The CoolSculpting procedure in Sarasota & Lakewood Ranch at Bowtique Med Spa will last between one and three hours, depending on the size of the treatment area.

What to Expect After CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting involves virtually no recovery time. You should be able to return to work and your normal daily activities right away.

Regarding results, you’ll notice an improvement in your body contour within three weeks of your procedure. Your body will continue processing the destroyed fat cells for up to six months, at which point your final results will be apparent.

FAQ CoolSculpting

What areas can be treated in one CoolSculpting session?

Depending on your goals and anatomy, we may be able to treat multiple areas in a single session. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate how many applicators are needed and develop a custom plan.

Is CoolSculpting safe for all skin types and tones?

Yes. CoolSculpting is a noninvasive treatment that does not affect the surface of the skin, making it safe for all skin tones and types with no risk of pigmentation issues.

Can CoolSculpting tighten loose skin?

While CoolSculpting effectively reduces fat, it is not a skin-tightening treatment. However, some patients experience a mild firming effect as fat volume decreases. If skin laxity is a concern, we can discuss combination therapies.

What does CoolSculpting feel like during treatment?

Most patients describe a cold, pulling sensation for the first few minutes. This usually subsides as the area becomes numb. You’ll be able to relax, read, or scroll your phone during the session.

Are results from CoolSculpting permanent?

Yes, the fat cells that are destroyed during treatment do not regenerate. However, maintaining a stable weight is important to preserve your results, as remaining fat cells can still expand with weight gain.

Can I work out after CoolSculpting?

Absolutely. There are no physical restrictions following the procedure. Many clients return to the gym the same day, although some prefer to wait a day or two if they feel mild soreness or swelling.

Can CoolSculpting be combined with other treatments?

Yes, many patients choose to pair CoolSculpting with other aesthetic services such as skin tightening or injectable treatments for enhanced results. During your consultation, we can create a personalized treatment plan based on your goals.

Is there an ideal time of year to get CoolSculpting?

You can get CoolSculpting year-round, but many patients choose fall or winter so their results are more visible by spring and summer. The treatment timeline gives your body several months to reveal its full transformation.
