Maybe you’ve spent four days a week at the gym for the past year and never seen your love handles budge an inch. Or perhaps you’re a bride-to-be dealing with back fat in anticipation of wearing a strapless gown. Either way, you’re fed up — and to get rid of your unwanted fat once and for all, you’re considering a CoolSculpting® treatment.
Making the decision to get any sort of aesthetic treatment, including CoolSculpting, usually involves a hefty amount of research. A deep dive into what CoolSculpting is, how fat freezing works, and the areas it can treat are all extremely helpful to the decision process. For many people, though, the ultimate deciding factor is often hearing from others who have already tried the treatment.
[Editor’s note: The CoolSculpting treatment is a non-invasive fat-freezing treatment that effectively reduces fat in certain self-proclaimed “problem spots” in the submental and submandibular areas, thigh, abdomen, flank, and upper arm, along with bra fat, back fat, and underneath the buttocks (you know, those bulges that just won’t go away, regardless of how much you sweat it out on the treadmill). While it isn’t a weight loss solution, fat-freezing can reduce pouches of fat. As with any procedure, there are risks and side effects, so talk to a licensed provider to see if it’s right for you.]
If you’re considering CoolSculpting, but are on the fence — and want to hear testimonials from people who have tried it before making the plunge — read on. We asked six people around the country to share why they ultimately decided to get CoolSculpting, and whether the chilly treatment lived up to their expectations.
The patient: Maureen, 49
The location: New York, New York
The provider: Just Ageless®
The areas treated: Abdomen and double chin
The backstory: Like many of the other patients, Maureen faced stubborn fat on her abs that she struggled to get rid of, despite consistent exercise. After experiencing “astounding” results with this area, she got another treatment on her double chin.
Spotlyte: What made you finally decide to try CoolSculpting?
Maureen: I decided to try CoolSculpting on my abdomen because I work out regularly, but I could not get some stubborn areas to reduce. The second area where I had CoolSculpting done was [under] my chin. No amount of exercise was going to make my double chin disappear, as it really was a matter of heredity.
Spotlyte: Was CoolSculpting worth it?
Maureen: I was beyond pleased with the treatment on my abdomen, and continue exercising to maintain the results. And after having [under] my chin done, I [started to see a] difference within about six weeks. The results are something I [was not able to] achieve through diet and exercise.
