CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting uses a process called cryolipolysis to permanently destroy fat cells without affecting the surrounding tissue — no needles, no surgery, no downtime.

During treatment, an applicator is placed on the target area and delivers precisely controlled cooling to the fat cells beneath the skin. Fat cells are significantly more sensitive to cold than the surrounding skin, nerves, and muscle tissue, so they crystallise and begin to die off while everything else stays completely unaffected.

Over the following weeks, the body naturally processes and eliminates those destroyed fat cells through the lymphatic system. Most patients begin to notice changes from around three weeks, with the most visible results appearing between one and three months post-treatment.

The key distinction is this: CoolSculpting doesn’t shrink fat cells the way diet and exercise do. It eliminates them. And because those cells are gone, the results are permanent — provided weight remains stable. New fat can’t form in the treated area the same way; it tends to accumulate elsewhere first.

It’s worth being clear about what CoolSculpting is and isn’t. It’s a body contouring tool, not a weight loss treatment. It works best on patients who are close to their goal weight but have specific pockets of subcutaneous fat that just won’t shift with lifestyle efforts alone. Common treatment areas include the abdomen, flanks, inner and outer thighs, upper arms, chin, and bra line.

Every treatment at Springs Body Sculpting is performed under the oversight of Dr. Dunham and our team of board-certified surgeons and trained estheticians, bringing extensive experience in cosmetic procedures to every session.
