CoolSculpting, technically known as Cryolipolysis, can be defined as a non-invasive medical procedure to contour excess body fat by freezing the excess fat cells present in the skin.

Through the freezing process, the fat cells are completely destroyed and removed from the body. This has been identified as the most advantageous effect gained from the procedure. Since the skin is not broken or cut, there is no scarring, thereby making this a low-risk procedure. Infections as a side effect to this procedure is almost nil.

How Effective is CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is a procedure that delivers excellent results, without causing discomfort to the patient. Considering its non-invasive nature, it is also one of the safest treatments for those looking to tackle excess fat. With a good diet and exercise regime, you can maintain the results of the CoolSculpting procedure for a long time.
