CoolSculpting® is often appealing when one or two areas keep bothering you despite steady workouts and healthy eating. Your arms, flanks, and inner thighs are three areas where fat can be stubborn, especially when it’s influenced by genetics or natural body shape. The right treatment plan depends on whether your concern is excess fat, loose skin, or a mix of both.
In Lone Tree, CO, Park Meadows Aesthetics offers CoolSculpting under the guidance of two Johns Hopkins-trained, board-certified plastic surgeons. Taylor is our licensed esthetician and body contouring specialist with a strong interest in CoolSculpting and skin health.
How CoolSculpting Works
CoolSculpting uses controlled cooling to freeze fat cells in selected treatment areas, and your body gradually clears the treated fat cells over time. Because it’s non-surgical, it doesn’t require incisions, anesthesia, or a traditional recovery period.
Park Meadows Aesthetics offers CoolSculpting Elite, which uses updated applicators and can treat multiple areas at one time. That can make treatment more practical when you want to contour both arms, both inner thighs, or both sides of your waist.
Treating the Arms
Upper arm fullness can be difficult to change with exercise alone. CoolSculpting may be a good option if you can pinch a small pocket of fat and your skin has enough elasticity to contract well after fat reduction.
It’s not the right match for significant loose skin. In that case, reducing fat may not give you the smoother arm shape you want.
Treating the Flanks
The flanks, often called love handles, are one of the classic CoolSculpting areas. This area often responds well because the fat is localized and easy to isolate with applicators.
CoolSculpting may help soften the side-waist bulge that shows through fitted clothing, but it is not a weight loss treatment.
Treating the Inner Thighs
Inner thigh fat can affect how clothing fits and how the thighs meet when walking. CoolSculpting can potentially help contour this area when the concern is a defined pocket of fat rather than loose skin or muscle tone.
Your provider will evaluate your anatomy to see whether the applicator can safely and comfortably treat the area.
