Over 17 million treatments performed worldwide. Body contouring in Eagan, MN.
A non-surgical way to reduce fat
CoolSculpting uses controlled cooling to target and injure fat cells just beneath the skin. Because fat freezes at a higher temperature than surrounding tissue, the cooling affects only the fat, leaving your skin, muscle, and nerves unharmed.
It is a fat-reduction procedure, not a weight-loss treatment. It is designed for active people who have noticeable bulges in specific areas that will not budge with diet and exercise.
Freeze, eliminate, reveal
CoolSculpting works with your body’s natural processes to remove treated fat cells for good.
Controlled cooling
A targeted cooling applicator is placed on the treatment area, injuring the fat cells just beneath the skin without harming surrounding tissue.
Fat cells die off
The injured fat cells begin to die after treatment. This is a gradual, natural process that unfolds over the following weeks.
Your body clears them
Over one to three months, your body naturally eliminates the dead fat cells. By around 90 days, most have been removed, and the reduction is permanent.
Where CoolSculpting can help
CoolSculpting can treat visible fat bulges in many areas of the body. Common treatment areas include:
What to expect
Of fat cells in the treated area, per treatment.
Most people return to normal activities right away.
With your body clearing cells for up to 4 to 6 months.
Treated fat cells are gone for good.
Candidacy and recovery
You may be a good candidate if you
- Have unwanted fat in specific, targeted areas
- Want a non-surgical alternative to liposuction
- Have noticeable bulges that resist diet and exercise
- Are active and close to your goal, looking to refine rather than lose significant weight
What to expect afterward
- Redness, swelling, tenderness, cramping, or aching in the treated area is common; bruising is possible but uncommon
- The area may feel bloated or look swollen in the first days to weeks
- Temporary numbness, tingling, or sensitivity can last about 2 to 3 weeks
- No downtime is required, and most people resume normal activities right away
CoolSculpting is not right for everyone. It is not recommended for certain conditions, including cold sensitivity disorders such as cryoglobulinemia, impaired circulation or skin sensation in the treatment area, bleeding disorders or blood-thinner use, pregnancy or breastfeeding, and active implanted devices such as pacemakers. We review your full health history at your consultation to make sure CoolSculpting is safe and appropriate for you.
How pricing works
Most people want a sense of cost before their visit, so here are typical price ranges by area, per session. Most people need two sessions per area for the best results. Your exact price depends on your custom plan, and treating more than one area together often lowers the cost per area.
| Treatment area | Typical range, per session |
|---|---|
| Abdomen | $2,400 to $3,000 |
| Chin | $1,400 to $2,100 |
| Flanks (love handles) | $2,400 |
| Bra fat and back fat | $1,400 to $2,400 |
| Upper arms | $1,400 |
| Other areas | Inquire |
Pricing is based on cycles, where one cycle is a single placement of the applicator, and the number of cycles per area is determined at your consultation. The price per cycle decreases as more cycles are added to your plan. An in-person assessment is required to build your treatment plan and confirm your pricing.

No. CoolSculpting is a fat-reduction and body-contouring treatment, not a weight-loss solution. It is designed to reduce stubborn bulges in specific areas, not to help with overall weight loss. The best candidates are active people near their goal who want to refine specific areas.
Yes. Once the treated fat cells are eliminated by your body, they are gone for good. Maintaining a stable weight helps keep your results looking their best, since the remaining fat cells can still grow or shrink with weight changes.
CoolSculpting reduces the fat cells in a treated area by about 20 to 25 percent per treatment. Some people choose additional treatments or cycles for further reduction. We will map this out with you at your consultation.
Most people find the treatment very tolerable. You may feel intense cold and some pulling or tugging at first, which usually fades as the area becomes numb. There is no downtime, so most people return to normal activities right away.
You may notice changes as early as three weeks, with the most dramatic results around one to three months. Your body continues clearing treated fat cells for up to four to six months after your session. Most people need two sessions per area to achieve their best results, which we plan out together at your consultation. Individual results vary.
