Is There Any Recovery Time Associated with CoolSculpting®?

Ready to take your beach body to the next level in time for summer? 

Then it’s time to discover CoolSculpting® body contouring treatments at Skin Cancer Specialists, P.C. & Aesthetic Center in Marietta, GA!

CoolSculpting® is the first and only FDA-approved fat reduction technology that uses freezing energy to break down stubborn fat cells lurking beneath your skin.  Whether you’re frustrated by love handles or can’t seem to lose stomach fat, CoolSculpting® makes it possible to lose inches – all without requiring surgery.

Given CoolSculpting®’s amazing efficacy (a single treatment can reduce targeted fat cells by up to 21%), many clients find themselves wondering if there’s any recovery process associated with the procedure. Well, there’s good news there: CoolSculpting® has virtually no downtime.  Clients can come in for their hour-long procedure and leave without having to take time off of work or out of their busy lives.

Best of all, you can read, catch up on emails, or even nap during your CoolSculpting® procedure.  It’s like taking a mini-break away from the hustle and bustle of your day-to-day life!

However, it’s worth noting that while there’s no downtime associated with the procedure, there are some things you can do to improve your results over the eight to twelve weeks after your initial procedure.

• Avoid intense exercise for the first 24 hours after your first CoolSculpting®
• Follow a healthy lifestyle! While CoolSculpting® results are permanent, they can’t stop the body from forming new fat cells. In other words, if you don’t eat right and exercise, you’ll end up putting the fat back on again over time.  To ensure your CoolSculpting® results remain, commit to a healthy lifestyle before undergoing your procedure.
• Follow additional recovery instructions from your CoolSculpting® technician. He or she can help you optimize your fat reduction results.

Clients should expect to experience minor swelling, redness, and bruising at the treatment site; these side effects tend to disappear within the first week after treatment.
