Fat cells, or adipose tissue, will die when exposed to a certain level of coldness. This process is known as Cryolipolysis and it leads to the formation of ice crystals within the cell walls. Once the ice crystals are formed, the fat cells can no longer function and they subsequently die off. After the fat cells are destroyed, your body naturally flushes them out. These fat cells are then permanently removed from your problem areas.

The CoolSculpting machine uses a vacuum-like suction device to attach itself to your fat and deliver the perfect amount of coldness to that area. Fat cells can be frozen at a higher temperature than the other tissues in your body, allowing the CoolSculpting device to specifically eliminate adipose cells without damaging anything else. The entire process can be completed in less than an hour, however it will take a few weeks for your body to naturally flush out the dead fat cells through your lymphatic system.

CoolSculpting is often used as a non-surgical and non-invasive alternative to more intensive treatments like liposuction. Performed in our MedSpa in Newport Beach, CoolSculpting offers a quick, easy, and painless way to remove fat from your body.
