CoolSculpting

What is CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is a revolutionary procedure for reducing fat deposits under the skin. Unlike diet or exercise, CoolSculpting actually destroys fat cells. This makes it ideal for shaping many areas of the body, including areas that may not respond to diet and exercise alone. CoolSculpting is safe, noninvasive, and effective.

What can CoolSculpting treat?

CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared to eliminate stubborn fat under the jawline, under the chin, the upper arms, back fat, bra fat, the flank area (love handles), abdomen, thighs, and under the buttocks (banana roll).

Recommended Treatment Duration

A CoolSculpting treatment typically takes as little as 35-75 minutes, depending on the area treated, with treatment sessions lasting 1-3 hours on average. For most patients, two or more treatment sessions are recommended to help reach their body contouring goals.

Dr Woon will mark the areas to be treated. Your skin will be cleaned and a gel pad placed on the treated area. The applicator applies a gentle vacuum to draw up the skin and fat. For the first 5 minutes, you will feel a slight achiness in the area just like if you place your fingers in ice for a while. The area will go numb and you will feel nothing! You may read, watch TV, catch up on email or take a nap. Most areas take 35 minutes. Some areas, like the outer thigh and chin, may take longer. Once treatment is complete, the treated area will be massaged for 2 minutes to break up the fat calls.

Recommended Treatment Duration

Since many patients receive more than one treatment session, you may return for additional treatments in 6-8 weeks.

Your body will naturally eliminate the treated fat cells. Typically, it takes 1-3 months to see results, with full results taking 6 months or more.

From Dr. Cybele Woon

"I came to CoolSculpting after training to use Botox for migraine and facial spasm in my neuro-ophthalmology practice. I started branching out with Botox and fillers which then led naturally to other collagen tightening procedures. I found myself purchasing equipment that would help me treat my post-menopausal problem areas! Treating the chin with Ultherapy made me realize sometimes fat under the chin would affect my results and then discovered CoolSculpting for the chin. You can’t just buy the chin applicator for the CoolSculpting machine so now this eye doctor treats tummies!"

Before & After

As Heard on Houston’s Own KSEV Radio!

"I can’t speak highly enough of Dr. Woon. She is not only a fantastic ophthalmologist but also does non-invasive treatments like CoolSculpting. After handling our Station Manager’s cataract surgery, she did CoolSculpting for me. She explained everything thoroughly and put me fully at ease, before the treatment. She was there to answer any questions I had, and made the entire procedure comfortable and painless. I felt much better knowing that a doctor with her expertise was there throughout the entire process. Dr. Woon couldn’t be more friendly and down to earth, while maintaining the highest level of professionalism. If you’re considering CoolSculpting, Dr. Woon is hands down the best" - CHRIS X @ KSEV
