Eliminate unwanted fat without surgery or downtime
CoolSculpting at ReviveMD Center in Richmond VA
eliminates stubborn fat safely and effectively, without surgery or downtime. This fat reduction treatment is the only FDA-cleared procedure to use controlled cooling to safely target and eliminate diet- and exercise-resistant fat. CoolSculpting results are proven, noticeable, and lasting, so you’ll look and feel great from every angle.
Freeze away fat? It comes down to science. Fat cells freeze at higher temperatures than surrounding tissues. CoolSculpting technology safely delivers precisely controlled cooling to gently and effectively target the fat cells underneath the skin. The treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen), and then die. Over time, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells, leaving a more sculpted you.

FREEZE AWAY UNWANTED FAT PERMANENTLY, SAFELY, AND EFFECTIVELY WITH COOLSCULPTING®!

HOW DOES COOLSCULPTING® WORK?
CoolSculpting® is the only body contouring technology that uses the power of cold to naturally reduce unwanted fat cells. Utilizing an innovative process known as cryolipolysis,™CoolSculpting® literally freezes and breaks down fat cells responsible for those persistent and unsightly fatty deposits. Once the unwanted fat cells have been frozen, the body’s natural metabolic process gently reduces them. Post-treatment healing time is incredibly limited; enabling patients to return to their busy lives immediately.
WHY IS COOLSCULPTING® BETTER?
Simply put, CoolSculpting® is emerging as one of the very best ways to reduce stubborn fatty deposits and rediscover your toned, shapely physique. It is quickly becoming one of the most popular body contouring procedures, because it:- Can offer up to 20%-25% reduction of fat in stubborn “trouble zone” areas*
- Requires minimal impact on your busy schedule because it can be performed in our office in about an hour*
- Is completely non-invasive: no scalpels, injections, anesthesia, incisions, or traumatic suction*
- Carries absolutely no risk of surgical complications*
- Requires no post-treatment downtime time*
- Doesn’t involve any risk of burning (unlike some heat-based technologies)*
YOUR COOLSCULPTING® EXPERIENCE
At ReviveMD Center, your CoolSculpting® treatment will be custom-tailored to target precisely your problem areas after consultation with our team. The session should require no more than one hour and does not require any anesthesia or topical ointments. The session involves little to no discomfort ; in fact, many patients find the session quite relaxing as they read, listen to music, or watch a movie. Video courtesy of CoolSculpting. Individual results may vary and are not guaranteed During your personalized treatment, our trained staff will apply a gel pad and applicator cup to the designated treatment area(s), utilizing a gentle vacuum suction to bring the unwanted fatty tissue between two cooling panels. It’s as simple as that! Because CoolSculpting® works by reducing fat cells over time, improvement in your physique may become visible within three weeks after your treatment, with the most dramatic results within 2-4 months. Individual results may vary, but many patients are able to achieve up to 20% fat reduction with CoolSculpting®. CoolSculpting® is a safe way to reduce fatty tissue. However, to maintain your shapely, contoured physique, it is critical to follow a healthy diet and exercise regimen in order to prevent accumulation of new fat cells in the treatment zones.* Weight loss is never permanent, and CoolSculpting® is not an approved method for weight loss. These techniques do remove fat cells from the body, but the remaining fat cells can continue to grow and expand. To maintain long-term results, be sure to maintain a stable weight and adhere to a healthy diet and exercise routine.CONTACT US TODAY

THE COOLADVANTAGE™ TECHNOLOGY
Like CoolSculpting®, CoolAdvantage™ harnesses the power of cold to target unwanted pockets of fatty tissue in the abdomen, waist, thighs, buttocks, and flanks. Unfortunately, even for individuals who are at or near their ideal weight, fat in these traditional “problem zones” is especially resistant to reduction through diet and exercise alone. Traditional body contouring technologies either suck out the fat (liposuction) through surgical incisions or burn it away (risking damage to surrounding tissue). Through a powerful new technology known as cryolipolysis™, CoolAdvantage™ targets the unwanted fat with cold, freezing the fat cells until they burst and die, allowing them to be gently and naturally reabsorbed by the body. The appearance of excess fat is reduced without the need for cutting or harming the surrounding tissue, leaving you with a smooth, toned, taut physique after just one treatment.* *Utilizing a revolutionary new applicator, CoolAdvantage™ delivers the same effective body contouring but with shorter treatment times and even greater comfort: *Utilizing a revolutionary new applicator, CoolAdvantage™ delivers the same effective body contouring but with shorter treatment times and even greater comfort:- It’s applicator is larger so it targets more tissue simultaneously*
- Three differently shaped “cups” allow the applicator to hug your body very comfortably*
- The use of even colder temperatures reduces procedure times by almost 50% without any reduction in treatment efficacy*

Treatment Day Answers
As you may expect, the CoolSculpting procedure will feel a little chilly. For the first 5 to 10 minutes, you may feel intense cold as the treated area becomes numb. Since most applicators use a vacuum to draw fatty tissue in, you may also feel some tugging, pulling, and/or mild pinching.
Yes, you can absolutely multitask during your CoolSculpting treatment. You are encouraged to read, check your emails, take a nap, or whatever feels comfortable for you. You can relax while you say goodbye to stubborn fat.
Because the CoolSculpting procedure is completely non-surgical, it’s typically very easy to return to your normal activities after the treatment. Often, patients go back to work on the same day. When you have a CoolSculpting treatment, there are no needles, no surgery, and no downtime.
Typical side effects after the procedure include temporary numbness, redness, swelling, bruising, firmness, tingling, stinging, and pain. For a few hours after the applicator is removed, many patients do experience redness in the treated area. In rare cases, this redness may persist for a few days, up to 2 weeks, but it will completely resolve itself.
CoolSculpting FAQs
The CoolSculpting procedure is designed for people who want to eliminate fat bulges in specific areas. The CoolSculpting procedure is not a weight loss solution (unlike weight loss surgery, such as gastric bypass). People who choose CoolSculpting often want a non-surgical alternative to liposuction. Good candidates for the CoolSculpting procedure have noticeable fat bulges in certain areas.
The frozen fat cells become crystallized, then die. The dead fat cells then are naturally processed and eliminated by your body. Some patients wonder if the results are permanent. CoolSculpting results are long term because those fat cells, and that fat bulge, are gone for good.
You may start seeing changes in your body as quickly as 3 weeks after your treatment. The most dramatic results are usually visible after 2 months. Several months after your treatment, your body will still continue to flush out fat cells.
After your CoolSculpting treatment, no special supplements are required. You won’t need to change any of your lifestyle habits because it’s not a diet and exercise program. Many people do feel more motivated to take good care of themselves after a CoolSculpting treatment. They look better, they feel better, and they want to keep their reshaped body healthy.
