What Does CoolSculpting Do?
The CoolSculpting fat-freezing procedure reduces the number of fat cells in treated areas by about 20% to 25%. We are all born with a certain amount of fat cells and this treatment would reduce that amount. These fat cells are naturally processed and eliminated in the area of treatment, so they won't migrate to another area of your body.
A common question we get is: “where does the fat go after my CoolSculpting treatment once it has been frozen?” And, “what goes on in the body during the CoolSculpting process?” Here at iThriveBeauty in La Jolla, we are here to answer that question for you!
Where Does The Fat Go After My CoolSculpting Treatment?
Fat is hyper-sensitive to cold! You can be reminded of this when thinking about how butter is hard when in the fridge, and soft when left out on the counter. CoolSculpting treatments rely on that rule of law when it comes to the fat in our own bodies. As your fat cells freeze during your CoolSculpting treatment, you are changing the texture of the fat cell itself. Once the cell freezes, it collapses and it triggers the cell to die. During this process, your body excretes the dead fat cells through your lymphatic system. These fat cells then exit the body through fecal matter, urine, and sweat!
Due to the excretion process, it's important to stay hydrated before and after your CoolSculpting treatment. In doing this, you will experience great results and recovery.
Will Fat Come Back After CoolSculpting?
After your CoolSculpting treatment It is important to stay hydrated before and after your coolsculpting treatment due the excretion process! In doing this, you will experience great results and recovery post your coolsculpting treatment.
Remember, when your CoolSculpting treatment has finished, it removes about 20-25% of the fat cells in the treated area. The fat cells will never come back in the area of treatment. However, if you do not manage your lifestyle in a healthy way, the remaining fat cells have the ability to still grow and enlarge. Diet and an active lifestyle is always a good thing to stay on top of post treatment to ensure amazing long lasting results.
