What Is CoolSculpting Edmonton and How it works?

CoolSculpting Edmonton is a non‑surgical body contouring treatment that uses controlled cooling (cryolipolysis) to freeze and permanently destroy fat cells. It targets small pockets of fat that do not respond to diet and exercise, such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms and under the chin. Because fat cells are more sensitive to cold than other tissues, the cooling process damages them without harming skin, nerves, or muscles. Over the weeks following treatment, your body naturally eliminates the frozen cells, revealing a smoother, more contoured silhouette.

Each  cycle can reduce the fat layer in that area by roughly 20–25 percent. Most clients need one to three sessions per area, depending on their goals. Because the treatment doesn’t break the skin, there is no general anaesthesia, no incisions, and minimal downtime.

What Can CoolSculpting Treat?

CoolSculpting targets stubborn subcutaneous fat in many common “trouble spots.” Typical treatment areas include the abdomen, flanks (love handles), inner and outer thighs, upper arms, bra‑line and back fat, and submental area under the chin. It is not a weight‑loss procedure and cannot treat visceral fat around the organs. Candidates should be near their goal weight with pinchable fat deposits and have good skin elasticity.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does CoolSculpting work?

CoolSculpting uses controlled cooling (cryolipolysis) to target stubborn pockets of fat. An applicator applies cold and suction for about 35–60 minutes, causing fat cells to freeze and die while leaving surrounding skin and nerves unharmed. Over the next one to three months, your body’s lymphatic system naturally clears away these dead cells. Each session typically removes about 20–25% of the fat layer in the treated area.
The treatment is intended for people with noticeable fat bulges that don’t respond to diet and exercise. It’s a body‑contouring—not weight‑loss—procedure and works best when you’re close to your ideal weight and have good skin elasticity. CoolSculpting isn’t suitable if you’re pregnant, breast‑feeding or have conditions such as cryoglobulinemia or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria. It also isn’t meant for loosening skin or treating obesity.
Prices depend on the size of the applicator and the number of cycles. In Edmonton, smaller‑area cycles start at about CA $800. Medium applicators typically run CA $700–$900 per session, and large applicators CA $1,200–$1,800 per session. Comprehensive plans that treat multiple areas often total CA $2,000–$4,000. Clinics may offer discounts or financing for multi‑cycle packages since this cosmetic treatment isn’t covered by insurance.
Most sessions last 35–60 minutes per area. During treatment, many people read, work or even nap. Depending on your goals and how your body responds, you may need one to three sessions per area. Your provider will create a personalized plan and schedule treatments several weeks apart.
The cooling process destroys fat cells, which are then processed and eliminated by your body. Once removed, those fat cells are gone permanently, but the remaining cells can enlarge if you gain weight. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle preserves your new shape.
Some people notice changes as early as three weeks after treatment. Results become more pronounced over two to three months, and improvements can continue for up to six months as your body eliminates fat cells. Follow‑up photos around 12 weeks can help you track progress.
No. CoolSculpting is a contouring procedure that reshapes specific areas. It doesn’t cause significant weight loss. The procedure is most effective when you’re near your ideal weight; diet and exercise are still essential for maintaining results.
At the beginning of a cycle, you’ll feel suction, pressure and intense cold. You may also notice pulling, pinching, tingling or aching. As the area becomes numb, most people relax comfortably. Afterward, your provider will briefly massage the treated area to enhance fat reduction; this may cause mild discomfort.
CoolSculpting is FDA‑cleared and non‑surgical, so you can typically return to work and exercise right away. Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, bruising, numbness, tingling or tenderness. Rarely, a condition called paradoxical adipose hyperplasia (an enlargement of fat in the treated area) or complications like frostbite or hyperpigmentation may occur. People with cold‑sensitive conditions should avoid the treatment.
Most clients can resume normal activities immediately. Mild redness, swelling or numbness may last a few days but usually doesn’t disrupt daily life. Contact your provider if discomfort continues beyond two weeks.
  • Stay close to your goal weight for best results.
  • Avoid blood‑thinning medications and supplements (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen, vitamin E, fish oil, St. John’s Wort) for several days to reduce bruising.
  • Refrain from smoking for at least a week before your session.
  • Wear loose, comfortable clothing; consider bringing a change of undergarments since the protective gel can stain fabric.
  • Eat a light snack before your appointment and limit caffeine.
  • Stay well‑hydrated and avoid alcohol or heavily caffeinated drinks.
  • Protect your skin from sunburn or injury on the treatment area.
  • Bring a book, tablet or other entertainment to occupy yourself during the session.
Expect minimal discomfort, though you may notice itching, tingling, numbness, soreness or cramping in the treated area. These usually resolve on their own. Your body will continue to process and eliminate fat cells for up to four months, so maintain a healthy diet, drink plenty of water, and stay active (even gentle walking helps). Wearing any recommended compression garment can increase comfort. Schedule a follow‑up visit about three months after treatment to assess progress and discuss whether you need additional sessions. Contact your provider if you experience severe pain, prolonged swelling or any unusual symptoms.
