Freeze Away Your Fat With The Innovative Science Of Coolsculpting!

Our Coolsculpting in Charlotte, Gastonia, Shelby, Hickory, Lake Norman and surrounding cities is a brilliant new body-contouring treatment that beautifully slims and sculpts the hips, tummy, and thighs by away freezing fat cells without damaging the surrounding skin, muscles or nerves.

We welcome patients from Charlotte, Gastonia, Shelby, Hickory, Lake Norman and surrounding cities for CoolSculpting, as well as those patients traveling from out of town.
Your doctor will meet with you in the comfort and privacy of our beautiful office suites where he or she will review your medical history, explore photographs, and discuss your goals for improvement. Once your doctor is confident that Coolsculpting is right for your needs, you will receive a detailed treatment plan outlining what to expect at every stage of your procedure.

Following your first body contouring treatment, you will see a marked reduction of unsightly bulges and fat deposits, with results more apparent at around three weeks post-procedure. At 2-4 months, you will experience the most dramatic improvement, and these changes will remain permanent as long as you continue to adhere to a healthy diet and exercise regimen. If you are eager to enhance your outstanding results, Coolsculpting treatment can be repeated at your doctor’s discretion.

How long does a CoolSculpting treatment take and how many treatments will I need?
Unlike bariatric surgery, CoolSculpting is not a weight-loss procedure. It is specifically designed for women and men with unwanted fatty deposits. A good candidate for CoolSculpting would be a patient who wants to get rid of fat bulges (for example, in the belly, hips, or thighs) without undergoing liposuction or a more invasive procedure.
Fat deposits tend to show up in different areas in women than in men. CoolSculpting is an effective body-contouring treatment for both genders. It can be used to slim and shape:
State-of-the-art CoolSculpting technology destroys unwanted fat cells without damaging surrounding tissue and skin. When fat cells are destroyed, they do not renew themselves. Once they are gone, they are gone for good and no longer able to accumulate and store fat.
It comes down to the difference between weight loss and fat reduction. Fat cells can shrink or expand, but they cannot replicate.
When you lose weight, your fat cells shrink but still have the potential to expand if you regain the weight you lost. With CoolSculpting fat reduction, on the other hand, fat cells are destroyed and removed through the natural processes of the body. The fat cells will not return, and your body does not produce new fat cells to replace them.
CoolSculpting is an effective treatment to improve the contours of the neckline and remove visible fat bulges under the chin. As with other areas of the body, treatment for a double chin with CoolSculpting is easily tolerable for most people. Many of our patients see noticeable results after only one to two treatments, with no injections or surgery and little or no downtime.
The length of a CoolSculpting treatment session varies from patient to patient, depending on the number of areas being treated in a single appointment. A single treatment can last 35 to 60 minutes or more, and some patients choose to have more than one treatment in an office visit.
The number of treatments needed for ideal body contouring will depend on your unique anatomy and individual treatment goals. At Piedmont Plastic Surgery & Dermatology, we will custom-tailor a CoolSculpting treatment plan specifically for you.
