CoolSculpting®
Procedure Snapshot
This 100% nonsurgical, FDA-cleared treatment reduces bulges on the belly, hips, and thighs by selectively freezing fat cells. CoolSculpting is perfect for our Paramus, New Jersey, patients who don't want or need the more dramatic contouring of liposuction.

Quick Facts

Do you have a particular “problem area” that will not respond to diet or exercise? You may not need surgery at all to finally see some results. CoolSculpting is a non-invasive treatment that literally freezes fat cells to death, so your body metabolizes them as waste.
Just one or two CoolSculpting treatments can help patients from Hackensack, Ridgewood, Mahwah, and Somerset, NJ, shrink unwanted, stubborn bulges at a fraction of the cost of surgery. There are no needles, no scars, and little-to-no downtime. If this sounds good to you, why not contact us for a cosmetic consultation?

How Does CoolSculpting Work?

CoolSculpting uses a proprietary technology called cryolipolysis, which selectively chills fatty tissue to the point where fat cells break down while leaving your skin, muscle, and other tissues unharmed.
After treatment, your body metabolizes and absorbs the targeted fat cells naturally. This happens gradually, so you’ll begin to notice the area slimming down a few weeks after treatment, with your final results apparent about 3 months after treatment.*
What Is a CoolSculpting Treatment Like?
CoolSculpting is non-invasive, needle-free, and no anesthesia is needed. Treatment takes about 1 hour, performed in our Paramus, NJ, office. You’ll settle into a comfortable recliner, and then we’ll place the CoolSculpting applicator onto your problem area, where it will deep-freeze the fat to the point where fat cells start to die off. You will feel a cold sensation and some pressure, but most patients find this tolerable enough to read, work on their laptop, or even nap during treatment.

What Can I Do After CoolSculpting for the Best Results?
For every area of CoolSculpting you get at Parker Center, you will receive a free lymphatic drainage massage to enhance your results. This massage will not only help improve your post-treatment comfort; it can also improve the quality of your results.
What Areas Can I Have Treated With CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared for fat reduction on the hips, flanks, abdomen, inner and outer thighs, back (bra rolls), upper arms, under the buttocks, and underneath the chin. We can treat non-pinchable areas such as the outer thighs with our CoolSmooth® applicator.
Will CoolSculpting Tighten My Skin or Reduce Cellulite?
CoolSculpting is only approved to reduce areas of excess fat. If you are concerned with lax skin or cellulite, you may benefit most from other treatments such as Cellfina® cellulite reduction, BodyTite skin tightening, or combination of procedures.
Is Liposuction Better Than CoolSculpting?
You may wonder how CoolSculpting compares to liposuction. Is it a substitute? Not exactly. You might think of each procedure as an excellent option for a certain patient. CoolSculpting can noticeably reduce fat in an area but won’t significantly change your body shape. If you’re mostly happy with your proportions but have modest fat deposits, CoolSculpting offers a non-invasive, cost-effective way to reduce these bulges.
Dr. Parker on CoolSculpting vs. Liposuction
Liposuction allows for much greater fat removal, and Dr. Parker can precisely sculpt an area to improve your overall body contour. If you have larger fat deposits or want to reshape an area, you will likely be more satisfied with the results of liposuction surgery. In addition, liposuction is better suited for fat removal on the face, knees, ankles, and other smaller areas.
