Fat removal procedures like liposuction have been in use for many years, but advancements in technology have introduced newer non-surgical alternatives. One such technique gaining popularity is cryo lipolysis, commonly known as "CoolSculpting". Unlike traditional surgery, CoolSculpting freezes and eliminates fat cells beneath the skin using a cooling process. Once the fat cells are crystallized, they are naturally eliminated from the body. This procedure requires no incisions or sutures, making it a minimally invasive option for addressing areas of stubborn fat such as love handles and belly pooches. Valencia Voci specializes in performing CoolSculpting procedures, helping patients achieve their desired body contours without surgery.

Procedure Technique
During a CoolSculpting procedure, the surgeon will place the cooling device on the area of the body where the fat is to be treated. The device pulls the fat pocket up between the cooling panels, where the freezing process will ensue. Patients will feel some pressure, but no pain. Most CoolSculpting treatments will only last about an hour. Following the procedure, patients will have some redness and tingling sensation on the areas treated, but this typically subsides quickly.
