IS THE MORPHEUS8 TREATMENT PAINFUL?

Everyone’s different, so we’re doing the most to make you as comfortable as possible. We have a very specific numbing protocol and you will be given all of the instructions and supplies in advance of your visit.  The day of your treatment, you’ll apply a prescription numbing ointment starting an hour before your appointment, reapplying every 20 minutes.  When you arrive at the office, depending on your last application, our staff will apply an additional layer.  We also have laughing gas for those who want alllll the things!

IS THERE DOWNTIME WITH A VI PEEL?

Peeling typically starts on day three and ends by day seven. For best results, we recommend prepping the skin with a lightening and brightening product, such as Alastin Skincare’s A-Luminate Brightening Serum.

COOLSCULPTING FAQS

SO, TELL ME HOW IT WORKS, AGAIN?

Many of us have stubborn fat despite diet and exercise. CoolSculpting technology uses controlled cooling to target and kill only these fat cells. More great news? Fat cells do not tend to regenerate.  Fat cells that are frozen during the CoolSculpting procedure gradually die off and leave the body through the body’s natural elimination process. That’s why it takes several weeks to months to see full results- and why the results are long-lasting!

IF I GAIN WEIGHT AFTER MY TREATMENT, WILL I BE BACK TO WHERE I STARTED?

We don’t make many fat cells after adolescence, and as adults, when we gain a little weight, we typically don’t gain fat cells; The fat cells we have just get BIGGER. And when we lose weight, they shrink back down. By getting rid of anywhere from 20-30% of the fat cells in the treated area, it will appear slimmer and flatter. If you gain weight after your treatment, the remaining fat cells will get larger- but there will be less of them, so it will be less notable vs prior to your treatment.

WILL I LOSE WEIGHT FROM COOLSCULPTING?

No. Fat cells are not very dense and therefore do not weigh much. Imagine that you stuffed your shirt with cotton balls until you looked like Santa and weighed yourself. Then you took them all out and weighed yourself again. You’d weigh almost exactly the same, but the physical appearance would be drastically different. 

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SEE RESULTS?

Results from CoolSculpting are not immediate. It takes time for the body to eliminate the dead fat cells. Patients typically start noticing changes as early as three weeks post-treatment, with the most significant results visible around 90 days.

I’M CURVY AND WANT TO SLIM DOWN. IS COOLSCULPTING GOOD FOR ME?

Coolsculpting often portrays plus size/ curvier women in their marketing campaigns. However, I’ve found that average/ slimmer women with pockets of unwanted fat get the best results. If you are on the plus side, we can send you for a lipo consult and/ or connect you with other lifestyle experts. We can also consider using coolsculpting to target places like the submental area to decrease the appearance of the double chin. But bottom line: We don’t want to waste your money if you’re not the best candidate! 

HOW DO I FIND OUT IF I’M A GOOD CANDIDATE?

Great question! Give us a call to schedule a complimentary consultation for a personalized treatment plan. 


DOES COOLSCULPTING INVOLVE SURGERY?

Absolutely not, which is why CoolSculpting is so great. This treatment is performed in our comfortable treatment room with a TV featuring Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu. So you can say goodbye to stubborn fat while you watch your favorite show.

ARE RESULTS FROM COOLSCULPTING PERMANENT?

CoolSculpting kills fat cells in the treated area(s) by 20-25% each time to provide long-lasting results. Secondary or additional treatments continue to reduce the fat, but probably at a maximum of about 40%.


IS THERE DOWNTIME AFTER COOLSCULPTING?

After your treatment, the treated areas will be numb, red, tender and swollen for 1-2 days, with swelling and bruising lasting up to 7-10 days, and decreased sensation to the skin for several weeks.  Many people return to work afterwards.  Some may experience a sensation of numbness or tingling in the treated area(s). Outside of the local side effects post-Coolscultping, generally there is little-to-no downtime.  After a CoolSculpting treatment you will be able to return to work and most normal activities right away. While hopping on a treadmill might be uncomfortable for a few days, there is nothing you can do to diminish the results of your treatment- it's all about comfort measures!  And because we are also a medical office and always have a PA or MD on site, if you were to experience discomfort, we are able to prescribe medications to manage your symptoms.

WHAT DOES A COOLSCULPTING TREATMENT FEEL LIKE? IS COOLSCULPTING PAINFUL?

When the applicators are applied and the treatment is started, after 1-2 minutes, it feels like a freezing ice pack has been applied to your skin. It may provide a mild stinging sensation for about 3-5 minutes, after which point your treatment area will feel numb. Most people find Coolsculpting very tolerable and only express discomfort during the “massage” portion, which lasts about 60-90 seconds. 

HOW MANY COOLSCULPTING TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?

The typical candidate for CoolSculpting will likely need two treatments. In order to best assess you and your goals, please schedule a free consultation with us. 


I HAVE A LUMP FROM PREVIOUS LIPOSUCTION, CAN COOLSCULPTING HELP ME?

Yes, CoolSculpting is the ideal treatment to smooth out irregularities from a liposuction or other surgical procedures (Eg: c-section shelf) that may leave abnormal fat pockets. CoolSculpting can target these areas with long-lasting results. 

HOW WILL I KNOW HOW MANY SESSIONS I WILL NEED?

Once we see you at our free consultation, we can determine exactly what it will take to get the results you are looking for. We are upfront in our pricing, honest in our assessments and work to provide the best discounts and promotions for our clients.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SEE COOLSCULPTING RESULTS?

Your results will develop in as little as 4 weeks post treatment, and most people see full results in 90 days.
