CoolSculpting in Hattiesburg, MS

At Radiant Reflections Weight Loss Clinic & Medspa in Hattiesburg, MS, we offer CoolSculpting, a leading non-invasive fat reduction treatment that harnesses the power of controlled cooling technology (also known as cryolipolysis) to help you eliminate stubborn fat without surgery or downtime. Whether you’re targeting your abdomen, flanks, thighs, or under the chin, CoolSculpting provides precise, effective, and long-lasting body contouring for both men and women.

What Is CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is a non-surgical fat reduction procedure that targets and destroys fat cells through a scientifically proven process called cryolipolysis. This technique works by freezing fat cells at specific temperatures, causing them to crystallize and die without harming surrounding tissue. Over time, your body naturally eliminates these dead fat cells, revealing a more sculpted and toned silhouette.

FDA-cleared and clinically tested, CoolSculpting is ideal for those who are close to their goal weight but have areas of persistent fat that don’t respond to diet or exercise.

How Does CoolSculpting Work?

The CoolSculpting procedure relies on advanced cryolipolysis technology developed by Harvard scientists. Here’s a breakdown of how the process works:

  • Targeted Cooling: The CoolSculpting applicator is placed on the treatment area, drawing up the skin and fat tissue into the applicator cup using a gentle vacuum.
  • Controlled Freezing: The device then delivers controlled cooling to freeze fat cells beneath the skin’s surface. Fat cells are selectively affected and more sensitive to cold than other tissues.
  • Fat Cell Elimination: Once frozen, the fat cells undergo apoptosis (cell death) and are naturally metabolized and flushed out by the body over the following weeks and months.

This controlled approach allows for the safe, gradual elimination of fat without incisions, needles, or anesthesia.

What Areas Can CoolSculpting Treat?

CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared to treat visible fat bulges in the following areas:

  • Abdomen (belly fat)
  • Flanks (love handles)
  • Inner and outer thighs
  • Submental area (under the chin)
  • Upper arms
  • Back fat and bra bulge
  • Underneath the buttocks (banana roll)

We also offer custom treatment plans based on your body composition, goals, and ideal contouring outcome. We work closely with you to develop a personalized strategy to target your most frustrating trouble zones.

Benefits of CoolSculpting

Non-Surgical and Needle-Free

CoolSculpting offers a completely non-invasive alternative to surgical fat reduction. There are no incisions, needles, or stitches required at any point during the procedure.

No Anesthesia or Downtime

The treatment is performed without anesthesia, allowing you to stay fully alert and comfortable throughout your session. Most patients return to work or daily activities immediately afterward.

FDA-Cleared for Multiple Areas

CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared to treat visible fat bulges in the abdomen, flanks, thighs, upper arms, and under the chin. This wide approval ensures both safety and efficacy across commonly requested treatment zones.

Natural-Looking Fat Reduction Over Time

Because fat elimination happens gradually, your body contours improve in a way that looks natural, not abrupt or overly sculpted. Results typically develop over several weeks to months.

Pairs Well with Healthy Lifestyle Habits

CoolSculpting works best when combined with healthy habits like balanced eating and regular activity. It’s an effective way to enhance the results of your existing wellness efforts.

CoolSculpting vs. Liposuction

Both CoolSculpting and liposuction are designed to reduce unwanted fat, but they’re not interchangeable. The biggest difference is how they remove fat and what kind of experience you want.

CoolSculpting is a non-invasive treatment that uses cryolipolysis (controlled cooling) to freeze and destroy fat cells beneath the skin. There are no incisions, no anesthesia, and no downtime. Most people return to their normal activities immediately after treatment. It’s ideal for targeting smaller pockets of stubborn fat in areas like the abdomen, thighs, or under the chin.

Liposuction, on the other hand, is a surgical procedure. It physically removes fat through suction using a cannula inserted beneath the skin. Liposuction is more aggressive and typically used for larger-volume fat reduction, but it comes with a recovery period, possible scarring, and surgical risks.

Advanced Results With CoolSculpting Elite

At Radiant Reflections, we proudly offer CoolSculpting Elite—the most advanced version of the CoolSculpting system to date. This next-generation technology builds on the success of the original CoolSculpting platform but delivers better results in less time with greater comfort.

Unlike earlier models, CoolSculpting Elite uses dual applicators, allowing us to treat two areas at once. That means faster appointments and more efficient sessions, especially if you’re targeting both sides of the body (like love handles or thighs).

The new C-shaped applicators are designed to better hug the body’s natural curves, making full contact with up to 18% more surface area. This improved fit leads to more even cooling, better fat reduction outcomes, and a noticeably smoother contour.

Patients also report enhanced comfort thanks to quieter operation and gentler suction during the procedure. With real-time skin temperature monitoring built in, CoolSculpting Elite maintains consistent safety while optimizing fat freezing performance.

If you’re looking for the most efficient, effective, and modern approach to non-surgical fat reduction, CoolSculpting Elite sets a new standard.

CoolSculpting Before and After

What to Expect for CoolSculpting and CoolSculpting Elite Treatments

Every CoolSculpting experience at Radiant Reflections begins with a personalized consultation. During this visit, we’ll assess your body, discuss your goals, and create a customized treatment plan based on your needs. We’ll also determine whether CoolSculpting Elite’s dual applicators can help treat multiple areas in a single session, saving you time and enhancing results.

During the Treatment

You’ll be comfortably seated in a private treatment room while a CoolSculpting applicator is positioned on the target area. The applicator uses gentle vacuum suction to pull the tissue into position, followed by controlled cooling that begins freezing the fat cells beneath the skin.

Most patients feel intense cold, tingling, or slight pressure during the first few minutes, which usually fades as the area becomes numb. Treatments typically last 35 to 60 minutes per area, depending on the applicator and zone.

If you’re receiving a CoolSculpting Elite treatment, you may be treated with two applicators simultaneously, making your appointment more efficient. Many people bring a book, scroll their phone, or even nap during their session.

After the Treatment

There’s no required downtime, and you can return to normal activities immediately. Some patients experience temporary redness, swelling, numbness, tingling, or sensitivity in the treated area, but these effects usually resolve within a few days to a couple of weeks.

You won’t see changes right away—CoolSculpting works gradually. As your body naturally flushes out the treated fat cells over time, the area becomes slimmer and more contoured. 

CoolSculpting Results Timeline

CoolSculpting delivers gradual, natural-looking results as your body metabolizes the destroyed fat cells over time. While you may notice changes within three to four weeks, the most visible improvement typically occurs around two to three months after your treatment.

Because your body continues flushing out fat cells for several months, results can continue to refine long after your session. Some patients may benefit from a second round of treatment for more dramatic contouring, especially in areas with dense or layered fat. During your follow-up, we’ll evaluate your progress and adjust your treatment plan to help you achieve your ideal outcome.

Am I a Candidate for CoolSculpting?

You may be a good candidate if:

  • You are close to your ideal weight
  • You have pinchable fat in specific areas
  • You’re in good overall health
  • You prefer non-surgical cosmetic options
  • You understand CoolSculpting is for body contouring, not weight loss

CoolSculpting is not intended for individuals with cryoglobulinemia, cold agglutinin disease, or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria. Our providers will review your health history to ensure your safety and eligibility.

CoolSculpting FAQs

How long does CoolSculpting last?

CoolSculpting results are long-lasting because the treated fat cells are permanently destroyed through cryolipolysis. Once your body flushes them out, they do not return, meaning the fat reduction is permanent for that area.

However, it’s important to understand that CoolSculpting doesn’t prevent weight gain. If you gain weight in the future, remaining fat cells in untreated areas can still expand. To maintain your results for the long term, we recommend sticking to a balanced diet, regular exercise, and healthy lifestyle habits.

When properly maintained, your CoolSculpting results can last for many years without the need for follow-up treatments.

How many treatments will I need?

While some patients are satisfied with their results after a single session, many benefit from a series of treatments, especially in areas with more pronounced fat deposits. The number of CoolSculpting treatments depends on factors such as the treatment area, body composition, and personal aesthetic goals. 

During your consultation at Radiant Reflections, we’ll create a customized treatment plan that outlines how many sessions will help you achieve optimal fat reduction.

Can CoolSculpting treat loose or sagging skin?

CoolSculpting is designed specifically for fat reduction, not skin tightening. It works by targeting and freezing fat cells beneath the skin, but it does not affect collagen or skin elasticity. 

If skin laxity is also a concern, we may recommend complementary non-surgical treatments such as skin tightening or collagen-stimulating therapies to enhance your overall result. We’ll discuss all your options during your consultation to ensure your treatment plan addresses both fat and firmness if needed.

Are CoolSculpting results symmetrical?

At Radiant Reflections, we take symmetry and balance seriously. Our providers use strategic applicator mapping and CoolSculpting Elite’s dual-sculpting technology to simultaneously treat both sides of the body, ensuring even and symmetrical fat reduction. Our approach combines precise positioning with experience-backed techniques to deliver natural-looking, proportionate results, especially in areas like the flanks, thighs, or under the chin.

Is CoolSculpting safe?

CoolSculpting is a safe, FDA-cleared procedure performed millions of times worldwide. Harvard scientists developed it and have undergone extensive clinical testing to ensure safety and efficacy.

CoolSculpting Elite takes safety a step further with built-in sensors that monitor skin temperature in real time, ensuring consistent cooling without damaging surrounding tissue. Because it’s non-invasive and requires no anesthesia, there’s no risk of infection or scarring, and patients can return to daily activities immediately. At Radiant Reflections, your treatment is always performed by trained professionals who prioritize your comfort and safety from start to finish.
