CoolSculpting works to lose fat, but not weight. Confused? Let's explain CoolSculpting weight loss versus fat loss. Fat loss and weight loss aren't always the same thing. The difference is what happens with fat cells. You can expect to lose 20 to 80% of the fat cells in the target treatment area with CoolSculpting.
The most important factor affecting the amount of fat you can lose is the size of the treatment area. If you are going to remove fat from a small area, such as your neck, armpits or knees, you can expect to lose about 80% of your localized fat cells. You can generally lose around 25% of unwanted fat in any area that's exposed to CoolSculpting technology. In fact, in just one treatment, you can reduce unwanted fat cells by this percentage.
With additional treatments, you can further reduce unwanted fat cells in virtually every area of the body. But what does a 25% reduction in unwanted fat mean in terms of pounds in clothing sizes? During your initial consultation, we will delve into the characteristics of a good candidate to determine if body contouring is right for you. One of the most important qualities we look for in a potential candidate is confidence that they can maintain their weight. For example, you may want to postpone treatment if you have lost and gained the same 10 pounds repeatedly for years.
We think we need to clarify what we mean by “maintaining weight”. It's okay if you gain weight by adding lean muscle mass to your body. It's also okay to lose up to 10 pounds after treatment, as this won't cause sagging skin. You may even be able to lose up to 30 pounds of fat without sagging skin. However, gaining more than 10 pounds of fat can significantly affect your appearance in a negative way.
Depending on where you are in your weight loss process, you may need to lose weight before treatment. To be clear, CoolSculpting is a body contouring treatment and is not intended to help you lose weight, so it's very unlikely that you'll lose a significant amount of weight when using this treatment. So, to lose weight, the basic math is to burn more calories (energy) than the number of calories you consume every day to burn stored energy and reduce fat cells. If you have difficulty losing those last few kilos or want to reduce the size of your pants or dress, a fat reduction treatment like this may be an ideal solution. Many people are tempted to follow a drastic diet before treatment so that they can lose as much weight as possible quickly. Remember that when you use this treatment to treat a large volume of fat, you can expect to lose about a quarter of the localized fat.
There are several reasons why bioequivalent hormone therapy is important when you're trying to lose weight and improve your quality of life. While consuming between two and five pounds of body fat doesn't seem like much, it can have a big impact on clothing size, especially since this technology is used to treat specific areas of the body to reduce unwanted fat and sculpt the body shape. If you focus on smaller regions of the body with smaller fat deposits, you can expect to lose 80% of localized white blood cells with this treatment. If you're within 30 pounds of your ideal weight, you don't need to lose weight before your cryolipolysis session.
However, most customers will be able to lose at least two to five pounds of body fat when using the treatment.
