It's gaining popularity for good reason, but what exactly is CoolSculpting? Developed by experts at Massachusetts General Hospital—a Harvard Medical School teaching hospital—this innovative treatment targets stubborn fat through controlled cooling.
Harvard-affiliated researchers discovered that fat cells are vulnerable to precise cooling. Using a specialized applicator, CoolSculpting chills subcutaneous fat cells beneath the skin. These cells crystallize, die off, and are naturally eliminated by your body over time, with visible results emerging in weeks to months.
CoolSculpting is ideal for superficial fat—the kind just under the skin and above the muscles, such as love handles or muffin tops. We first mark the treatment area and apply a protective gel pad to shield your skin. The applicator then gently vacuums the skin and fat layer, delivering targeted cooling without affecting surrounding tissues.
Important note: This isn't for visceral fat, which surrounds organs and requires diet and exercise for reduction. That's why we pair treatments with personalized nutrition guidance for optimal, lasting results.
Multiple certified CoolSculpting clinics operate across the Netherlands—find yours at CoolSculpting.com. Sessions typically last 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the area (like double chin, back, or buttocks) and your customized plan. Pricing varies by clinic, so consultations help tailor costs to your goals.
