The CoolSculpting® fat-reduction procedure is specially designed for those who have unwanted fat in targeted areas. Unlike weight-loss surgery (e.g., gastric bypass), the CoolSculpting® procedure is not a weight-loss solution for people who are obese. Good candidates for the CoolSculpting® procedure have noticeable bulges in certain areas they’d like to get rid of. Many people want a non-surgical alternative to liposuction.

The price for CoolSculpting® procedures varies depending on your areas of concern, the number of treatments needed, and your ultimate goals. Most patients opt to receive treatments in multiple body areas in order to achieve their goals. The cost typically ranges between $2,000-$4,000 and depends on your personalized treatment plan and on the number of areas treated.

We have multiple CoolSculpting® systems and applicators, so it’s possible for our patients to have multiple areas treated at once.

During your personalized consultation, one of our CoolSculpting specialists will determine your goals and develop a treatment plan tailored to your individual needs. Depending on your specific goals, multiple treatment sessions may be necessary.

After the treatment, you may feel some tingling as the area is massaged for 2 or 3 minutes. Patients are usually able to return to normal activities following their appointment.
