What is CoolSculpting Recovery Like? 

CoolSculpting Recovery 

CoolSculpting is a popular treatment for people who want to remove unattractive fat deposits without involving cosmetic surgery. The popularity of CoolSculpting relative to other fat reduction and body contouring procedures is higher because of the procedure’s convenience, efficiency, and no significant downtime.   CoolSculpting, in fact, has the fastest recovery time and lowest risks of complications in comparison to various other non-invasive body contouring techniques that involve lasers, RF and ultrasound technology.   Rejuenvate Medical Spa, led by Dr. Bijan Farah, provides CoolSculpting to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding communities.  

No Downtime 

CoolSculpting is a much sought-after procedure because it eliminates the need for needles, incisions, medications, or cosmetic surgery. Consequently, the patient does not need a specific time to heal.  Some of the key attributes of CoolSculpting are as follows: 
  • The procedure is painless, and there is no discomfort during the treatment or later. 
  • CoolSculpting can be easily performed in-office. 
  • The treatment can be completed within an hour. 
  • The procedure is non-invasive. Therefore, there is no requirement for scalpels, anesthesia, injections, incisions, or traumatic tissue suction. 
  • Almost no risk of post-surgical complications. 
  • CoolSculpting does not cause a burning sensation. This usually happens with techniques using heat energy. 

Ideal for Busy Professionals 

Busy professionals and moms are frequently concerned about the downtime after a fat reduction procedure. CoolSculpting is an excellent choice for such patients. They can go back to their routine almost instantly post-treatment with no limitations imposed on their daily activity or food.  CoolSculpting sessions can be conveniently scheduled for patients with a busy lifestyle. Working individuals can choose to undergo this treatment during their lunch hour, and return to work immediately after the session. 

No Long-term Recovery Process 

The CoolSculpting treatment does not warrant the need for anesthesia or sedation. This prevents the temporary side effects or resultant monitoring and recovery that are usual in procedures with general anesthesia. CoolSculpting does not create a wound bed or require sutures like liposuction procedure. This helps ensure that the treatment does not have a specific downtime.  Recovery after a procedure applies to non-invasive laser body contouring or high-strength chemical peels. CoolSculpting is a procedure that simply does not use acids, sharp lasers, ultrasound energy, or chemicals.   This procedure makes use of gentle cooling applicators to provide accurate and targeted treatment to the problem areas. The healthy tissue around the targeted location remains untouched. CoolSculpting also does not involve aggressive manipulation of fat cells.  

Mild Side Effects 

There may be side effects such as soreness, temporary numbness, and a slight tingling sensation in the treatment areas. Some patients may experience mild bruising as well. These minor side effects resolve in a few days and do not affect the routine of the patient.   In any case, if the CoolSculpting procedure is performed by an experienced provider, the side effects are likely to be minimal.
