How CoolSculpting Works
CoolSculpting employs a scientific principle known as cryolipolysis. During the procedure, specialized applicators are placed on the targeted areas, subjecting fat cells to precisely controlled cold temperatures, typically around -10 degrees Celsius (14 degrees Fahrenheit). This initiates apoptosis, a natural cell breakdown process. Over several weeks, the body's immune system processes the treated fat cells, which may result in a gradual reduction of fat in the treated areas, typically without harm to surrounding tissues.
CoolSculpting Is NOT A Weight Loss Procedure
CoolSculpting in Dr Phillips is not a weight loss procedure. Instead, it is designed to target and eliminate localized fat deposits in specific areas of the body. While it can lead to a slimmer appearance, it typically results in a modest reduction of fat. CoolSculpting is most effective for individuals who are already close to their ideal weight but have stubborn pockets of fat they want to address. A healthy diet and regular exercise remain essential for overall weight management.
