I recently went in for my second Botox session with Crystal and had an excellent experience. She was incredibly patient, took the time to answer all of my questions, and thoroughly explained the entire procedure.

Transform Stubborn Areas With
Targeted Body Contouring
CoolSculpting® is a non-surgical body contouring treatment that freezes stubborn fat so your body can naturally eliminate it—without needles, surgery, supplements, or downtime.
This advanced technology targets and cools unwanted fat cells, causing them to freeze, die, and never return. Most clients relax, read, or work during their session and resume normal activities immediately afterward. Results begin to appear in as little as three weeks, with full results typically visible in three to four months.
Why Do I Still Have Stubborn Fat
No Matter What I Do?
Unlike building muscle, there is no natural way to target specific pockets of fat. When you lose weight, your body decides where the fat comes off first. Age and genetics play a major role in this process, which is why some areas store fat more easily than others.
Even with disciplined workouts and a strict diet, stubborn fat can remain under the chin, on the upper arms, around the abdomen, or in other common trouble spots. For years, the only solutions were to accept those areas or undergo surgical liposuction.
CoolSculpting offers a modern alternative. It is a non-invasive, low-risk body contouring treatment that makes it possible to reduce stubborn fat without surgery or recovery time.
CoolSculpting
Treatment Areas
CoolSculpting can treat most areas with pinchable fat, as long as there is enough volume for the applicator to adhere to. Below are the most common areas patients choose to target.
Abdomen
Reduces stubborn belly fat that often remains despite diet and exercise. Most patients need one to three applications.
Double Chin
Treats submental fullness caused by genetics or aging. Each application takes about 35 minutes, with one to three sessions recommended.
Saddle Bags
Helps slim the hips and outer thighs, where many people naturally store fat. Noticeable results often appear after two sessions.
Distal Thighs (Above the Knee)
Reduces stubborn fat near the lower thigh and knee area, helping create smoother leg contours where exercise often has little effect.
Back Fat & Bra Fat
Smooths bulges on the upper and mid-back that can hide muscle tone or show through clothing.
Inner Thighs
Slenderizes inner thighs and can reduce uncomfortable rubbing. Helps create a more streamlined leg contour.
Love Handles
Targets fat along the sides of the abdomen for a more contoured waistline. Effective even when lifestyle changes aren’t enough.
Outer Thighs
Reduces outer thigh fullness that creates a wider silhouette and is difficult to address through exercise alone.
How Does
CoolSculpting Work?
CoolSculpting freezes and destroys fat cells using controlled cold. The applicator targets only fat, so your skin and surrounding tissue stay unharmed. This process, called cryolipolysis, safely kills fat cells without surgery or downtime.
After treatment, your body gradually removes the frozen fat cells through its natural processes. Early changes may appear within a few weeks, with your final results developing over the next few months. Once the treated fat cells are gone, they do not return.*
Am I a Good Candidate for CoolSculpting?
You may be a good candidate for CoolSculpting if you:
Are in good overall health
Are close to your ideal weight
Want targeted contouring rather than overall weight loss
Stay active and follow a balanced diet
Have stubborn, pinchable fat that doesn’t respond to lifestyle changes
A consultation with an experienced provider is the best way to determine whether CoolSculpting aligns with your goals and health status.
Does CoolSculpting
Actually Work?
What the Research Says
Extensive research supports CoolSculpting as a safe and effective way to reduce stubborn fat. Once eliminated, these fat cells are gone for good. Clinical studies consistently show strong results from CoolSculpting treatments, including:
- A 2013 study found an average 23% reduction in fat layer thickness three months after treatment, with 86% of patients reporting noticeable improvement.
- A 2016 study showed that CoolSculpting results can last six to nine years, especially when patients maintain a healthy lifestyle.
- In a 2018 study, 95% of patients described the treatment as comfortable or tolerable.
- A 2015 review of 19 studies reported that side effects were mild and temporary.
Downtime, Recovery, and Results
After CoolSculpting
One of the biggest advantages of CoolSculpting is the lack of downtime. The treatment requires no sedation, incisions, or stitches, so you can return to work or normal activities immediately after your appointment. Mild swelling, bruising, or temporary skin sensitivity may occur, but these effects typically fade within about 10 days.
CoolSculpting begins working right away as fat cells freeze and begin to break down. Many patients notice early changes within the first few weeks, with their shape continuing to improve as the body naturally eliminates the treated fat. Final results usually appear within three to four months.
Results are long-lasting as long as you maintain a stable weight and healthy habits. While some people achieve their goals with a single treatment, many benefit from two sessions. Research shows that 89% of patients are satisfied after two visits, and a second treatment can increase fat reduction by up to 73% compared to the first session.

Curious About CoolSculpting?
Start Here
Is CoolSculpting Safe?
Both the cryolipolysis machine used to perform CoolSculpting and the procedure itself are FDA-approved.
CoolSculpting does not affect the skin or damage tissue other than fat cells. Your immune system evolved to break down and remove those dead cells. CoolSculpting does not alter or harm any of your other organs or systems.
What Are the Risks and Side Effects of CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting is non-invasive, and serious side effects are rare. Most patients experience temporary redness, tingling, or mild swelling in the treated area, which usually fades within hours or days. Some bruising or tenderness may occur and can last a few weeks.
In uncommon cases, contour irregularities can develop, where one area appears slightly fuller or uneven. Choosing a highly experienced CoolSculpting provider like Bella Medspa helps minimize this risk and ensures your treatment is performed safely and correctly.
How much does CoolSculpting cost?
CoolSculpting generally costs around $800 per treatment area, though most patients treat multiple areas. Nationally, the average total cost is about $6,400.
How Is CoolSculpting Different From Liposuction?
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that requires anesthesia, incisions, and downtime. CoolSculpting is non-invasive, uses controlled cooling to freeze fat cells, and requires no needles, no recovery period, and no risk of infection. Most patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment.
