Is CoolSculpting Painful?

There is little to mild discomfort during a CoolSculpting treatment, and that too during the massage session, when the pressure to break frozen deep tissue might seem uncomfortable. After the treatment, most patients report no pain. Even if there is minor soreness, it has been reported to subside within a week or two. Aestheticians prescribe cold compresses or over-the-counter pain medication to resolve these symptoms.

How Many Appointments Will I Need?

If there are no complications, most patients require a single appointment. Since CoolSculpting addresses specific areas of the body, further treatment is usually only necessary if you want to target a different area. Some patients might need to repeat a session to the same target area, but Nina Gaetano will let you know if that is necessary after the six-month mark.

How Long Until I See the Results?

Most patients see noticeable changes within three weeks of the procedure. We recommend waiting until the three-month mark, realizing that fat-flushing will usually take between three and six months after the treatment.

Can I Combine CoolSculpting with Other Procedures?

Absolutely! Our patients who have received CoolSculpting treatments have combined it with other rejuvenation procedures, such as laser skin resurfacing , BOTOX , or other injectable fillers . We highly encourage patients to bring up their ideas of combined procedures with Nina Gaetano at the initial consultation so that she can include their ideas while drafting the treatment plan and also advise on the most optimum combinations.

What Are the Risks Associated with CoolSculpting?

Even though CoolSculpting is a non-invasive procedure and relatively safe, there are still potential risks associated with it. Some of them are listed below: Bruising Numbing Skin discoloration Paradoxical adipose hyperplasia Skin irritation Swelling If you experience these or other concerning effects, please contact our office immediately so that we can help.

Coolsculpting First Step

What’s the First Step?

The first step to receiving CoolSculpting treatment in Chino is to schedule a consultation at the Bella Sol Med Spa with Nina Gaetano or one of our expert providers. During your appointment, your provider will discuss your health history, your target areas, concerns, and expectations. They will also discuss the pros and cons of the procedure as well as the details of the session and recovery. Finally, they will examine your areas of concern and will likely take photos to compare them with post-procedure photos to demonstrate any improvement in treated areas. Once they deem you as an ideal candidate, they will create your customized treatment plan that you can use to schedule your procedure, and you will talk to the patient coordinator about pricing and any pre-treatment instructions.

The CoolSculpting procedure doesn’t require much preparation. However, it’s important to make sure your body is healthy and close to your ideal weight. CoolSculpting is not a weight loss solution, and very overweight or obese people are not ideal candidates. An ideal candidate is healthy, fit, and looking for a tool to eliminate body bulges. Although bruising from the suction of the applicator is common after CoolSculpting, it’s a good idea to avoid anti-inflammatories such as aspirin before the procedure. This will help reduce any bruising that may occur.

What to Expect on the Day of a CoolSculpting Treatment

On the day of your CoolSculpting treatment in Chino, one of our technicians will welcome you to the facility and get you settled in a treatment room. They will then review your treatment plan once more to ensure you are comfortable with it. Finally, the treatment will begin.

CoolSculpting involves the use of a small or large (or both, depending on which areas are being treated) paddle-like applicator attached to a hose that provides the cold. Regardless of size, each device has two panels with 3,000 sensors per side. A gel pad to help protect your skin is placed over the area being treated, and then the CoolSculpting device is applied and powered up. Once on, the applicator securely pulls up the area being treated between the two panels, where it remains for the duration of the treatment. After a few minutes, you’ll begin to feel intense cold. Don’t be surprised if the cold rush is accompanied by stinging, tingling, aching, or a cramping sensation. This is normal and will lessen (if not go away completely) as the area becomes numb. Your aesthetician will ensure you’re comfortable, help get you situated, and then leave you alone to relax as the procedure continues on its own.

When the treatment hour is up, the device is removed, and the practitioner massages the treated area for a moment or two to restore normal blood flow. Not surprisingly, this area will be tender, and you may feel slightly stinging or cramping. You may also see a temporary whitening or reddening of the treated area, which may also feel stiff. Otherwise, you’re free to resume normal activity immediately after the treatment.

CoolSculpting Recovery

CoolSculpting is a non-invasive procedure, so there is no downtime for recovery. Some patients might have minor redness or soreness in the treated area, but that should resolve within a few weeks at most.

Patients are approved to resume their normal daily activities after their CoolSculpting treatment.
