Treatment Tailored to You

How does it work?

CoolSculpting® uses a non-surgical procedure called cryolipolysis to reduce subcutaneous fat.9,10 CoolSculpting® targets and cools fat cells to temperatures that trigger fat cell death, while preserving surrounding tissue. The body’s immune system naturally processes and removes these fat cells.8,11

Shift stubborn fat
