CoolSculpting is a fat reduction treatment that targets and permanently destroys stubborn areas of fat. Results are permanent, proven and noticeable.
What is it?
CoolSculpting Elite uses controlled cooling to target and eliminate stubborn fat cells beneath the skin, leaving you with a more sculpted appearance. After treatment, your body naturally processes and removes these frozen fat cells, resulting in a smoother, slimmer you. On average, patients see a 20-25% fat reduction in treated areas after just one session, and each additional treatment enhances these results, further reducing stubborn fat for a more sculpted appearance.
With two CoolSculpting Elite machines, Huntington Dermatology offers faster treatments, cutting your session time in half allowing for greater scheduling flexibility. More than 2 million CoolSculpting procedures have been performed worldwide. With over 2 million CoolSculpting procedures performed globally, it’s never been easier to achieve the body you’ve always wanted.
What to expect
CoolSculpting Elite is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared treatment that naturally eliminates fat cells without the need for surgery, downtime, injections, pills or supplements. Through a process called apoptosis, targeted fat cells are safely broken down and removed by your body’s natural processes over a few months, leaving you with a slimmer, more sculpted appearance. Unlike liposuction, there’s no risk of fat being released into circulation—just permanent, long-lasting results.
Getting started is easy. Your CoolSculpting Elite journey begins with a one-on-one consultation with one of our experienced CoolSculpting specialists. During this personalized session, they will take the time to understand your goals and develop a comprehensive plan to reshape your body. Together, you’ll evaluate your body from different angles and pinpoint the areas you’d like to focus on, ensuring your treatment plan is fully customized to meet your unique needs.
During your treatment agel pad and applicator will be placed on the targeted area, delivering controlled cooling to freeze fat cells. After your treatment you can resume normal activities immediately. While some results may appear in 3 weeks, the most noticeable changes typically occur 1–3 months post-treatment.

The CoolSculpting fat-reduction treatment is specially designed for those who have unwanted fat in targeted areas. Unlike weight-loss surgery (e.g., gastric bypass), CoolSculpting is not a weight-loss solution for people who are obese. Ideal candidates for CoolSculpting have stubborn bulges they want to eliminate and prefer a non-surgical alternative to liposuction.
The price for CoolSculpting varies depending on your areas of concern, the number of treatments needed, and your ultimate goals. That said, the cost of a procedure usually starts at $600 per treatment area, with the average patient typically requiring multiple treatments. We will create a customized treatment plan that’s tailored to your body, your goals, and your budget.
Your CoolSculpting provider will create an individualized treatment plan tailored to your specific goals. The length of your CoolSculpting treatment will vary depending on the number of areas being treated. Each CoolSculpting treatment typically lasts about 1 hour. At Huntington Dermatology, we have several CoolSculpting Elite systems with various applicators, allowing you to treat multiple areas in one session. You and your provider can also schedule additional treatments to help achieve your desired results.
CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared to target and eliminate stubborn fat in nine specific areas of the body, including under the jawline, chin, upper arms, back, bra area, flanks (love handles), abdomen, thighs and beneath the buttocks (banana roll).
Yes! The CoolSculpting procedure can treat visible fat bulges under the chin and contour the neck. Freezing away fat from a double chin is as easy and tolerable as using the CoolSculpting procedure in other parts of the body (e.g., abdomen, flank/side, thighs). With CoolSculpting treatment for a double chin, patients see results after just 1 to 2 visits. And with no surgery, no needles, and no downtime.
Kybella is an injectable prescription treatment. Kybella chin fat treatments involve 30 injections per treatment area per session (and patients typically need 2 to 4 sessions). If a patient needs numbing injections to reduce the pain of Kybella injections, that adds more needles and more injections. Some patients may experience swelling after Kybella treatments.
The CoolSculpting procedure is a non-invasive procedure, which means there are no needles or injections—ever!
Once the treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen), they die and are naturally processed and eliminated from the body. Once the treated fat cells are gone, they’re gone for good.
CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared for the treatment of visible fat bulges in the submental area, thigh, abdomen, and flank. As the #1 non-invasive fat reduction procedure and with millions of CoolSculpting procedures performed worldwide, it is proven to be a safe and effective treatment.
CoolSculpting is not for everyone. You should not have CoolSculpting if you suffer from cryoglobulinemia or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria. CoolSculpting is not a treatment for obesity. As with any medical procedure, ask your physician if CoolSculpting is right for you.
During the procedure you may experience sensations of pulling, tugging, and mild pinching. You may also feel intense cold, tingling, stinging, aching, and cramping—sensations that subside as the treatment area becomes numb.
Immediately after treatment, there may be redness and firmness; transient blanching and/or mild bruising around the edges of the treatment area; tingling and stinging. Typically, these side effects are temporary and resolve completely. Many patients do experience redness in the treated areas for up to a few hours after the applicator is removed. In rare cases, this redness may persist up to 2 weeks, but it will completely resolve itself.
At 1 to 2 weeks after treatment, there may be redness, bruising, and swelling; tenderness, cramping, and aching; itching, skin sensitivity, tingling, and numbness. In some cases, numbness may persist for several weeks after a treatment. Talk to your provider if these side effects persist past 2 weeks or worsen over time.
Yes, you can. CoolSculpting is completely non-surgical, so typically you can return to normal activities immediately. Patients often return to work on the same day after a CoolSculpting treatment is completed.
You may start to see changes as quickly as 3 weeks after your treatment, and will experience the most dramatic results after 2 months. Your body will still continue to flush out fat cells for up to 4 to 6 months after treatment.
No supplements are required after your CoolSculpting treatment. It’s not a diet and exercise program, so you won’t need to change any of your lifestyle habits. Many patients do feel more motivated to take care of themselves after a CoolSculpting treatment. It’s as if they got a second lease on their body! They want to take even better care of themselves.
Many people, after seeing the results from their CoolSculpting procedure, feel even more motivated to stay close to their ideal weight. However, if you do gain weight, you may gain it evenly all over your body. treated areas.
