Developed by Harvard University researchers, this unique procedure is based on a process known as cryolipolysis or destruction of fat cells through freezing. Extreme cooling causes adipocyte fat cells to crystallize, break down and get gradually eliminated through natural body processes. When the body flushes out these adipocytes, the surrounding cells that were not affected by the procedure condense, resulting in a significant reduction in the thickness of the fat layer in the treated area.

Fat tissue is made up of fat cells that contain a large semi-liquid lipid droplet surrounded by a membrane envelope. Shrinking fat cells or liberating their content, as proposed by several other platforms currently on the market, provide only a temporary slimming effect and do not prevent fat cells from plumping up and expanding again.

CoolSculpting is a revolutionary technology that outperforms the competition. It actually reduces the number of fat cells in the treated area through a complete destruction of the fat cell envelope and its content.
