Coolsculpting in Mullica Hill & Gloucester County, NJ

The cost of a CoolSculpting treatment depends on a number of factors. Prices correspond to the area or areas that you want treated and how many treatments are necessary to reach your aesthetic goal. At our Mullica Hill practice we create customized treatment plans based on what each patient tells us during the consultation. It's really not possible to provide accurate cost estimates until after that discussion. We do provide a written quote after the consultation, so you can review the costs associated with the procedure. We also offer financing to help patients pay for their treatments.

Treatments with the original CoolSculpting applicators typically took about an hour to complete when used on a single part of the body. The latest generation of applicators, however, often require shorter treatment times. Once we create a treatment plan, you'll be able to plan accordingly.

No, because cellulite is not fat. Cellulite appears when bands of connective, fibrous tissue pull on the skin from below, which creates a dimpled look. When fat pushes up through these bands, the appearance of cellulite is more pronounced. CoolSculpting reduces fat, but it won't affect cellulite.

The fact that CoolSculpting doesn't involve any downtime is one of the reasons why it's so popular. Even though you may experience some redness, swelling, and soreness, you can exercise after a CoolSculpting treatment. Most patients return to work or their normal daily activities after their procedures.

Both procedures are designed to reduce fat, but CoolSculpting isn't really considered an alternative to liposuction. At our Mullica Hill practice, Dr. Bidic, Dr. Gundlapalli or Dr. Sheck may recommend liposuction for patients who want a greater volume of fat reduction than CoolSculpting can accomplish. CoolSculpting is ideal for men and women who are active but have small pockets of fat that exercise and diet fail to reduce.

One of the great things about CoolSculpting is how many different areas of the body it can treat. The product comes with various interchangeable applicators that are designed to fit different areas of the physique, including the:

• Abdomen
• Back 
• Bra fat
• “Banana rolls” on the buttocks
• Hips
• Thighs
• Upper arms
• Double chin
• Chest
• Area above the knees and inner knees

Oftentimes more than one area can be treated in a single session.

Absolutely! CoolSculpting is a great treatment for people of all genders, including the manliest of men. CoolSculpting achieves results that are flattering to your body, even if you have a masculine frame. The idea is to reduce excess fat, which will reveal the contours and definition of the area.

CoolSculpting is not actually a weight loss technique but a targeted method for reducing fat cells in a specific area. You should not expect to lose a significant amount. It is possible you may see a difference on the scale afterward but certainly not guaranteed. People at or near their ideal body weight get the best results from CoolSculpting. When you’ve already achieved the weight and tone you want, but find stubborn fat lingers no matter what, those are great conditions for fat reduction with CoolSculpting.

Your body needs time to flush the frozen fat away. You should begin to see initial results three weeks after treatment. Results will look nearly final after two to three months, although minor improvement continues for up to six months.

It is possible to treat the same area more than once. You should wait the full three months to see the finalized results before making the decision to treat the area again, and at a minimum, you must wait 30 days.

There is no recovery from CoolSculpting in the sense that you don’t have to delay exercise, work, or other routine activities. It is normal to experience temporary side effects, such as redness, swelling, bruising, cramping, aching, itching, tenderness, and sensitivity. These side effects may last for two to three weeks.

The vast majority of people do not describe CoolSculpting as painful. There is a cold sensation, and the area usually becomes numb soon after. The device works by gently pulling the skin and fat into the applicator. It’s normal to feel a tugging, pinching, or pulling sensation as the applicators do their work. In general, treatment is tolerated quite well and requires no anesthesia or numbing medication.

CoolSculpting® results are long-lasting because the treated fat cells are permanently eliminated from the body. However, how long your individual results last will depend on your habits. Significant weight gain after the procedure can still create new fat cells in untreated areas. To keep your results, try to follow a healthy diet and regular exercise routine. Many patients find CoolSculpting® to be a great motivator for staying active and maintaining their weight.

CoolSculpting® is generally safe and well-tolerated, but it does have some potential side effects. Most patients experience minor swelling, redness, or tenderness in the treated areas, which usually resolve within a few days. Some patients might feel numbness or tingling, which should go away over time. Our team will discuss all potential risks during your consultation.

We understand that cost is an important factor when considering treatment. To make CoolSculpting® more accessible, we offer financing options through CareCredit and Cherry Financing. These options allow patients to break down the cost of treatment into manageable monthly payments. During your consultation, we’ll provide a clear estimate of your treatment costs and discuss financing plans that work best for your budget.

CoolSculpting® works best for those who are close to their ideal weight but struggle with stubborn pockets of fat. It’s not a weight-loss treatment and may not be right for people with significant amounts of excess fat.

The number of treatments varies depending on your goals and the areas being treated. Some people will see results after one session, while others may need multiple treatments to get their desired look. We are happy to discuss this during your consultation.
