How Does CoolSculpting for Armpit Fat Work?

You’re probably wondering how you can get slimmer and toner arms without having to go under the knife. With CoolSculpting, it’s all about the cells. The procedure freezes the cells and causes them to go into a cell death phase called apoptosis. This process takes about three weeks, but it could also take up to three months for some people. During apoptosis, your body metabolizes the fat and gets rid of it through the lymphatic system. It’s that easy! And the best part? The results are long term. Once the fat cells leave your body, they are gone for good! So, bye-bye armpit fat and hello sleeveless shirts!

What Actually Happens During a Coolsculpting Treatment?

1. We will want to document your progress, so be expected to have your photo taken before the treatment begins.
2. After your pictures, we will start to prepare the area for treatment.
   • The treatment areas will be marked with sharpies.
   • The skin will be wiped clean.
   • A gel or a gel pad will be put on the treatment area to serve as a protective barrier.
   • Then the CoolSculpting handpiece will be placed on the marked area.
3. CoolSculpting for armpit fat procedure begins.
   • During the procedure, you’ll need to stay as still as possible to avoid any movements that could shift the applicators. Most people watch TV or listen to music during treatment.
   • The process will feel like an ice pack on the skin. Patients say that the first 5 to 7 minutes are uncomfortable, but not painful. After that, the area will go numb, and you can sit and relax.
   • Each cycle of treatment takes about 35 to 45 minutes.
4. CoolSculpting treatment for armpit fat ends.

When the procedure ends, the suction handpiece will be removed, and you’ll be given a manual massage for about two minutes on each area that was treated. Most people don’t like this because they say it feels like the top of a bruise is being rubbed. But this is an important step that can’t be skipped because it will help you see better results.

After treatment is complete, you can return to your normal activities. It is recommended that you use sunscreen and avoid any exfoliation, and extreme temperatures. It’s also recommended that you have your 2nd round of treatment within 6 to 8 weeks later.
