How Many CoolSculpting Sessions Do You Need for Results?

Most patients can achieve their desired results after one CoolSculpting session at our Indian Harbour Beach or West Melbourne locations, but many schedule additional treatments to target other areas with stubborn fat and achieve different treatment goals. You can lose significant fat volume after undergoing a single treatment, especially since we offer DualSculpting, which targets two areas simultaneously.


Still, your treatment plan will depend on your ultimate goals, the number of areas you want to address, and how stubborn fat has affected your body. The best way to determine how many sessions it will take to achieve your ideal results is by scheduling an initial consultation at one of our offices to confirm whether this body contouring treatment is right for you and what it will take to help you achieve your ideal body composition.

What Is CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is one of the most popular non-surgical body contouring treatments available. It’s been studied and researched for over ten years and has proven to be an effective solution for patients who want to lose inches, improve body composition, increase their confidence, and make their clothes fit better. This body contouring treatment can eliminate stubborn fat from virtually anywhere on the body, doesn’t require downtime, and delivers gradual results.

How Does It Work?

CoolSculpting was developed by Harvard-based scientists who found that extremely cold temperatures could freeze stubborn fat cells, initiating a process called cryolipolysis. As the device delivers extremely cold temperatures directly to the fat cells in the treatment area, the cells freeze and undergo cell death.

Once these fat cells die, the body eliminates them, flushing them from the system in the weeks following the treatment. The result is significantly reduced fat volume in the treatment area and permanent results.

Who Is It Right For?

The best candidates for this treatment are men and women who live a healthy lifestyle, eat a healthy diet, and exercise regularly but still have stubborn fat that won’t respond to their healthy lifestyle. This treatment is not a weight loss treatment but is designed for those close to or at their goal weight who want to fine-tune their bodies by improving their body composition in a way that their diet and exercise routine cannot.

An initial consultation at our West Melbourne or Indian Harbour Beach location is the easiest way to confirm whether this body contouring treatment is right for you.

What Areas Can It Treat?

This body contouring treatment can remove fat cells virtually anywhere on the body. At our locations, we offer DualSculpting, a version of this treatment in which we use two handpieces to target stubborn fat in two body areas simultaneously. DualSculpting allows for faster treatment times and enables patients to reach their ultimate goals more quickly. The most common treatment areas include the following:

  • The abdomen
  • The flanks (love handles)
  • The muffin top
  • The area beneath the chin
  • The back
  • Bra fat
  • The upper arms
  • The inner and outer thighs

What To Expect From a Treatment at Our Indian Harbour Beach and West Melbourne Locations

Typical treatments take approximately one hour from start to finish. Once you arrive for your appointment, we’ll situate you in one of our treatment rooms and place the device paddles on your target treatment areas. All you have to do is sit back and relax as the device delivers cooling temperatures to freeze your stubborn fat cells. You won’t need any pre-treatment numbing solution.

You won’t experience any discomfort but instead will feel an extremely cold sensation, followed by numbness as the device initiates cryolipolysis. Most patients spend their appointment time reading, watching TV, or using their phones. The process is relaxing and therapeutic, and once it’s over, you can use your normal daily activities.

Is There Downtime?

One of the reasons that patients love CoolSculpting so much is that it effectively targets and eliminates stubborn fat cells with non-surgical methods but doesn’t require any downtime. As soon as your appointment is over, you can resume all of your normal daily activities, including exercise, without having to plan around a recovery.

What Kind of Results Can I Expect?

Most patients experience a 24% decrease in fat volume in their treatment areas. While you may not see results immediately following your appointment, you will see gradual changes in those areas in the following weeks. Cryolipolysis causes cell death, which is immediate, but it takes time for the body to flush the dead fat cells, which it now views as a waste, from the system.

Enhancing Your Results

While this can take several weeks, there are some ways that you can accelerate the process, including supporting your lymphatic system. The body will use the lymphatic system to flush the cells out, so ensuring your lymphatic system is healthy can speed up results.

Getting regular exercise, drinking plenty of water, and limiting alcohol consumption can all support your lymphatic system and ensure that it is functioning optimally so that it can effectively and quickly eliminate the fat cells from your treatment area.

How Long Will My Results Last?

The results of CoolSculpting are intended to be permanent. Once the device freezes those stubborn fat cells, they will die, and the body will flush them from the system. They can’t come back, and your body won’t grow new ones to replace them. However, if you gain weight after your treatment, it can impact your results.

This treatment will reduce the total fat volume in your treatment areas, but it won’t eliminate every fat cell. If you do gain weight after your treatment, any remaining fat cells could respond to weight gain and expand. If you want to enjoy permanent results, all you have to do is eat a healthy diet, exercise regularly, and continue to follow a healthy lifestyle.

Will I Look Natural?

This treatment uses natural processes to deliver the most natural-looking results. Because the results appear gradually, never at any point will you look like you underwent a surgical fat loss procedure.

As your body flushes those dead fat cells from the system, you’ll notice improved body composition and can even lose inches off those areas. The entire process will occur similarly to the normal weight loss process, only you won’t have to cut extra calories or spend extra time in the gym to achieve your results.

Achieve Your Ideal Body Composition

If you’re tired of scheduling extra workouts, cutting calories, and overexerting yourself only to not see any changes in those areas with stubborn fat, there is a solution that will work. CoolSculpting can help you achieve your body goals, fine-tune your physique, and deliver long-lasting results.
