Coolsculpting™ is a non-invasive treatment for men and women who want to sculpt a leaner body with targeted fat reduction. Unlike invasive fat removal treatments like liposuction, Coolsculpting™ works with your body to remove unwanted fat. The device freezes and kills fat cells, which the body clears via its natural disposal systems.

The Coolsculpting™ journey at Stadia Med Spa starts with a free consultation. During your consultation, your provider will tell you about the treatment, go over your goals, and answer any questions about the procedure.
Take advantage of the free consultation to prepare yourself for the procedure. Come prepared with clear objectives so your provider can give you realistic expectations.
Coolsculpting™ is ideal for people with a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet and regular exercise. Research indicates that the treatment works best for clients with a BMI of 30 or less. People with a BMI between 25 and 30 will likely need several sessions to see results.
The Coolsculpting™ device looks a little like a vacuum cleaner. At the beginning of your treatment, your provider will place the paddles on the treatment area. The paddles actively pull on the treatment area to draw in stubborn fat deposits.
Coolsculpting™ freezes fat until cell death. After your treatment is complete, your body will naturally dispose of the dead fat cells, leaving you with a more toned and sculpted body.
No, the Coolsculpting™ treatment doesn’t hurt, but it can be uncomfortable. A majority of patients have a positive experience with minimal discomfort.
The paddles may cause a tugging, pulling, or pinching sensation as it sucks in your skin and fat. You will also feel an intense cold that quickly turns to numbness. Many clients describe the cooling sensation as achy or itchy before the treatment area goes numb.
After the applicators are removed, your provider will massage the treatment area. It may feel uncomfortable or even painful as your body returns to its normal temperature, but massaging the treatment area is proven to increase the number of fat cells lost during Coolsculpting™.
You can continue to massage and rub the area at home to improve circulation and help remove fat cells faster.
Redness, numbness, and tingling are common after Coolsculpting™; These side effects rarely last more than a few days after treatment. In rare instances, you may have numbness or lumps underneath the skin that last for several weeks.
Coolsculpting™ is not liposuction and cannot remove large sections of fat in a single treatment. It subtly sculpts areas of the body with stubborn areas of fat and may take several treatments to help you achieve your goals.
Coolsculpting™ does not have instant results. It takes time for your body to dispose of the fat cells killed during cryolipolysis.
Your Stadia Med Spa provider will take before and after shots about 90 days apart. Many clients are surprised at the differences between the two photos.
Coolsculpting™ is a unique treatment that freezes fat cells for a better body contour. Expect natural-looking results that complement your body with a minimally-invasive treatment and easy recovery.
