Most people have areas of stubborn fat they’d like to lose. These zones are usually a product of heredity, and they don’t budge, even with healthy eating exercise. In the past, liposuction was the only realistic spot reduction method. Today, men and women throughout the Washington, DC and Alexandria, VA area have a nonsurgical alternative. CoolSculpting targets obstinate fat deposits . . . without anesthesia, sutures, downtime, or scarring.

CoolSculpting works on the scientific principle of cryolipolysis – fatty tissue freezes at a higher temperature than water. With carefully-controlled cooling delivered through the CoolSculpting applicator, a targeted area is chilled to a temperature that crystallizes fat cells, without harm to skin or other organs. Fat cells are destroyed and harmlessly eliminated by the body’s lymphatic system, over time. This treatment is FDA-cleared, and it reduces fat by about 20 percent in treated areas.
To reshape your body, we develop an individualized CoolSculpting treatment plan. Our trained clinicians work closely with you to develop a strategy tailored to your body sculpting goals, your schedule, and your budget.
CoolSculpting can be used to remove fat and improve body contours from head to toe:
Simply sit back and relax. You may read a book, check your email, or nap. Depending on the area(s) treated, a session generally lasts about 2-4 hours. Since the procedure is nonsurgical and non-invasive, you may return to work or other activities immediately.
Change becomes apparent in about three weeks, and improvement continues for up to six months. An area can be treated multiple times, if you desire further reduction. The adult body does not produce new fat cells, so the results are long lasting if you maintain overall body mass. If you gain weight in the future, less volume will be gained in the treated areas.
