What Is CoolSculpting?
No Surgery. No Needles. No Downtime.
The CoolSculpting procedure eliminates stubborn fat safely and effectively, without surgery or downtime. This fat reduction treatment is the only FDA-cleared procedure to use controlled cooling to safely target and eliminate diet- and exercise-resistant fat. CoolSculpting technology safely delivers precisely controlled cooling to gently and effectively target the fat cells underneath the skin. The treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen), and then die. You will like what you see. In the weeks and months following your procedure, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells, leaving a more sculpted you. Once the treated fat cells are gone, they’re gone for good.*
Are you ready to love every view of you? The sooner you set up your complimentary consultation, the sooner you’ll see results in the mirror—long-term results in those areas that have resisted all efforts through diet and exercise. Contact us today to find out if the CoolSculpting fat freezing procedure is right for you.
Benefits of CoolSculpting:
CoolSculpting provides targeted fat reduction and is a non-invasive procedure that provides no downtime. It is a perfect treatment option for patients that have specific problem areas in mind and are looking to make small contouring changes around their bodies.
Benefits of CoolSculpting:
Cape & Islands Plastic Surgery is a fully certified CoolSculpting practice where procedures are performed under the guidance of a board-certified plastic surgeon. Cape & Islands Plastic Surgery is the only practice on Cape Cod to offer “dual” CoolSculpting!
New areas including arms, bra fat, back fat, and under the buttocks have been recently introduced in addition to reducing fat in the abdomen, love handles, chin and thighs.
What Areas Of The Body Can CoolSculpting Treat?
One of the most common applications of CoolSculpting is to work on the abdomen. Whether you are trying to decrease your love handles, flatten your stomach, or get rid of the “muffin top” CoolSculpting may be right for you. One of the best features of CoolSculpting is that it allows for real “spot reduction”. Many exercise routines will claim that their exercise routine burns fat in specific areas of the body. Unfortunately, studies show that spot reduction via is ineffective. While exercise might lead to fat burning, our bodies might not prioritize the areas we do. But CoolSculpting destroys fat cells in specific areas of the body.
When it comes to fighting fat, our genetics sometimes make it nearly impossible to get the results we want naturally. Individuals often store fat differently, and even when eating right, working out, and maintaining a healthy BMI we can still not look the way we would like to. CoolSculpting can help you target that stubborn fat that just won’t go away.
One thing that sets CoolSculpting apart from other fat reduction treatments and plans is the fact that you can get CoolSculpting exactly where you need it. Many patients get CoolSculpting because they eat right, workout as often as possible, and still have that one stubborn area that annoys them.
If your chin is your “problem area” CoolSculpting might be right for you. Many patients have seen great results when choosing CoolSculpting for their chin. At Cape & Islands Plastic Surgery we provide “Dual-Sculpting” where patients can have two areas of their body treated during a single visit. So if you are looking to get reduction around multiple areas of your body, please give us a call.
As we age we may notice more fat building up around our arms especially near our triceps. This fat can be very annoying because it hangs loose off of the arms. CoolSculpting is an effective way to kill fat cells in this area and decrease the fat content in the arms. Combining CoolSculpting with EMSCULPT’s muscle toning procedures, you can get even more benefits.
If you are looking to decrease fat that hangs off of your arms, we would be happy to see you for a consultation. Aside from CoolSculpting and EMSCULPT, some patients may be a better fit for an arm lift. At Cape & Islands Plastic Surgery we can help you choose the right procedure based on your goals.
CoolSculpting is the first and only clinically proven, FDA-cleared non-surgical solution for using cooling to reduce fat in the thighs. The applicator specifically treats the outer thighs and other non-pinchable fat bulges, and features a comfortable design that adjusts to fit each individual patient. Cape and Islands Plastic Surgery was pleased to be the first office on Cape Cod to offer this new technology for thigh fat reduction.
CoolSculpting can be used to treat the areas around the thighs, as well as the buttocks. Not every CoolSculpting practice has the necessary applicators to treat all of the areas that CoolSculpting can help treat. That is why it is important to work with a CoolSculpting Complete Practice like Cape & Islands Plastic Surgery so that you can take full advantage of the treatment’s capabilities.

CoolSculpting Treatment Guide
There are many reasons to go to Cape & Islands Plastic Surgery for CoolSculpting. We have been offering CoolSculpting at our location for years and are one of the only places that performs Dual-Sculpting. But the best reason to come to CIPS is because our doctors are body contouring experts with decades of combined experience.
At our consultation we will discuss your unique goals, budget, and other important factors. Our ultimate goal is for you to love your results. That is why we tailor our approach to your unique goals. We offer a range of both surgical and non-surgical procedures. For instance some men and women looking to add definition to their jawline may be a better fit for Kybella than CoolSculpting. Some patients get the most benefits from combining CoolSculpting with EMSCULPT to tone muscle while they remove fat. During the consultation process we will identify what procedure(s) will result in the best results based on your goals.
When you come to us you will have a customized treatment developed to address your problem areas. Your individualized treatment plan will be tailored to your body, your goals, and your budget.
After tailoring your specific CoolSculpting plan we will schedule your first session. Depending on the area of the body you are receiving treatment, and your specific goals, treatment may require additional CoolSculpting sessions. The entire process can take half an hour to an hour depending on the treatment plan. Many of our patients describe the experience as being comfortable although you may feel some tingling sensations as the treatment area is numbed. During your procedure, you may choose to read, check email, watch Netflix or even take a nap.
One of the best parts of CoolSculpting is the fact that there is no downtime. It is common among patients to notice some temporary redness, light bruising, or firmness in the treatment area. After CoolSculpting is over your body will begin the natural process of eliminating and removing the dead fat cells in the treatment area. It’s is important to remember that CoolSculpting is not a weight loss procedure, but a procedure that works by eliminating fat cells in specific areas of the body.
It can take up to 1 month after your first treatment to see your results and up to 3 months after your final treatment for the full results to appear after CoolSculpting.
