Do you have pockets of stubborn fat that refuse to disappear, no matter how much you diet and exercise? You're not alone. Arizona Wellness Center offers CoolSculpting®, the world's #1 non-surgical fat reduction treatment, to help you achieve the sculpted, confident look you deserve. This revolutionary, FDA-cleared procedure freezes and eliminates unwanted fat cells for good, without surgery, needles, or downtime.
CoolSculpting® technology is based on a simple but brilliant scientific principle called cryolipolysis. Developed by Harvard University scientists, this discovery revealed that fat cells freeze at a higher temperature than surrounding tissues.
The CoolSculpting® device delivers precisely controlled cooling to gently and effectively target the fat cells underneath your skin. The treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen), which causes them to die. Over the following weeks and months, your body's natural lymphatic system processes and permanently eliminates these dead cells, revealing a more sculpted you.
Step 1: Your Personal Consultation
Your journey starts with a one-on-one assessment where we discuss your goals, evaluate the target areas, and create a customized treatment plan just for you.
Step 2: Your Treatment Day
On the day of your procedure, we mark the treatment area and apply a protective gel pad. You'll feel intense cold and a suction sensation for a few minutes before the area becomes numb. Then you can relax, read, or even nap for the 35-60 minute session.
Step 3: Post-Treatment Massage
Immediately after the applicator is removed, your provider will perform a brief but vigorous massage on the area. This is a critical step that helps break up the crystallized fat cells and can improve your final results by over 60%.
Step 4: Seeing Your Transformation
You may start to see changes in as little as three weeks, but the most dramatic results will appear between two and four months as your body flushes out the fat cells. Your body will continue to eliminate cells for up to six months.
This treatment is designed for body contouring, not for significant weight loss. You are likely a great candidate if you:
Are within 20-30 pounds of your ideal body weight.
Maintain a healthy lifestyle with regular diet and exercise.
Struggle with specific bulges of pinchable, "subcutaneous" fat.
Have realistic expectations for a non-surgical procedure.
Want to smooth and contour specific problem areas.
CoolSculpting® has a variety of applicators designed to fit and treat different parts of the body. We can help you contour:
Abdomen (belly fat or "muffin top")
Flanks (love handles)
Inner and Outer Thighs
Submental Area (double chin)
Back and Bra Fat
Upper Arms
Underneath the Buttocks (banana roll)
As the cooling begins, you'll typically feel intense cold, followed by tingling, stinging, or cramping. These sensations subside within 5-10 minutes as the area becomes numb. Most patients find the experience very tolerable.
The number of sessions depends on your goals and the areas being treated. While many patients see great results after one session, some areas may benefit from a second round of treatment to achieve their "Treatment-to-Transformation" goal. We will determine your unique plan during the consultation.
No! CoolSculpting® is completely non-surgical, so you can typically return to your normal activities immediately. Some patients experience temporary redness, swelling, or mild bruising in the treated area, but this resolves on its own.
Yes! Once the treated fat cells are crystallized and eliminated, they are gone for good. They will not come back. However, it's important to maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle, as the remaining fat cells in your body can still grow if you gain weight.
