Your Options

Three Ways to Reduce Fat

Not all fat reduction methods are equal. Here is how the three most common approaches compare when it comes to effectiveness, downtime, and long-term results.

🏋

Diet & Exercise

Shrinks fat cells but cannot eliminate them. Essential for health but limited for stubborn areas that resist your best efforts.

❄

CoolSculpting

Freezes and permanently destroys 20–25% of fat cells per session. Non-invasive, no downtime, FDA-cleared for 9 areas.

🩺

Liposuction

Surgical fat removal under anesthesia. Effective but requires incisions, recovery time, and carries surgical risks.

The Science

How CoolSculpting Works

CoolSculpting uses cryolipolysis to freeze and destroy fat cells beneath the skin. Once treated, your body naturally processes and eliminates the dead cells over the following weeks.

FDA-cleared for 9 treatment areas including abdomen, flanks, and thighs
Permanently eliminates treated fat cells — they do not grow back
No surgery, no needles, no anesthesia required
Sessions take 35 minutes per area
Zero downtime — return to normal activities immediately
Results visible in as little as 3 weeks, full results in 2–3 months

The Difference

Why CoolSculpting Stands Out

For stubborn fat that resists diet and exercise, CoolSculpting offers the ideal balance of effectiveness, safety, and convenience. It is the most proven non-invasive fat reduction technology available.

The CoolSculpting Difference

Diet shrinks fat cells. CoolSculpting eliminates them. That is why treated areas stay slimmer even if your weight fluctuates. No other non-invasive treatment can match that permanence.

CoolSculpting FAQs

Is CoolSculpting better than liposuction?

For moderate, stubborn fat deposits, CoolSculpting delivers comparable results without surgery, anesthesia, or downtime. Liposuction may be better for larger volume fat removal, but CoolSculpting is the preferred choice for non-surgical body contouring.

How many CoolSculpting sessions do I need?

Most patients see noticeable results after one session per area. Some choose a second treatment after 60 days for enhanced results. Your Metro Laser specialist will recommend a plan based on your goals.

Does CoolSculpting really work permanently?

Yes. CoolSculpting destroys fat cells, and once they are gone, they do not regenerate. As long as you maintain a stable weight, your results are permanent.

What areas can CoolSculpting treat?

CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared for 9 areas: abdomen, flanks (love handles), inner thighs, outer thighs, under the chin, upper arms, bra fat, back fat, and beneath the buttocks. Learn more about CoolSculpting at Metro Laser.

Is there any downtime after CoolSculpting?

No. You can return to work, exercise, and daily activities immediately after treatment. Some patients experience temporary redness, swelling, or numbness in the treated area, which resolves on its own.
