CoolSculpting in Houston, TX
At some point in life, up to 90% of all women will experience cellulite along some area of their body. Diet and exercise alone do very little to get rid of these lumpy, fatty deposits. Until recently, the only option to restore smooth, taut skin was a surgical procedure, which included both discomfort and a lengthy recovery. CoolSculpting is a new, innovative treatment designed to reduce these areas of ugly fat deposits, without the recovery time of a more invasive procedure. CoolSculpting utilizes Cryolipolysis, a technique using extremely cold temperatures to destroy the layers of fat cells. The surrounding, healthy tissues are unaffected during the treatment, remaining completely safe. Over the weeks following a CoolSculpting procedure, the body will naturally metabolize the lifeless cells.
This treatment can be used to treat many different areas including the abdomen (Muffin Top), flanks (Love Handles), upper back (Bra Rolls), lower back, saddlebags, arms, double chin and male breasts. Six different size applicators are available, allowing each CoolSculpting treatment to precisely address the individual target area. *

Real Patient Review
Ideal Candidate for CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting can be a beneficial treatment for anyone frustrated with stubborn fat along the arms, legs, double chin or trunk. Potential patients should be in relatively good health, understand the CoolSculpting process, and hold reasonable expectations for the results. CoolSculpting is safe for men and women of any skin type or ethnicity. The procedure is not an alternative to weight loss, however. The ideal candidate will have isolated areas of bulging fat that are resistant to exercise and diet.
Prior to scheduling a CoolSculpting treatment, a consultation with one of our CoolSculpting Specialists will be scheduled. At this time, we will perform a quick physical evaluation, and discuss the individual’s aesthetic needs. If CoolSculpting is determined to be the best way to achieve the desired results, a unique treatment plan will be created. Our beauty experts can also recommend complementary procedures, both surgical and noninvasive, to reach optimum physical rejuvenation.
The CoolSculpting Procedure
Is performed in one of Mirror Mirror’s private, comfortable procedure rooms. The provider will begin by determining the exact area to be addressed. Two CoolSculpting paddles are placed, one either side of the treatment location. Using light suction, the skin is gently pulled up between the applicators. The paddles will then begin chilling staying in place for 35-45 minutes (depending on treatment).
CoolSculpting treatments are not painful and therefore require no anesthesia. As the procedure begins, a deep cool and mild pulling sensation will occur, but these will only last a few moments before the area becomes numb. At Mirror Mirror, we take every extra step to make sure our patients are comfortable during their treatment. While waiting on the procedure to complete, patients can relax enough to enjoy a cup of coffee, talk on the phone, browse the Internet, or even take a short nap.
Each CoolSculpting treatment will target one area per 35-45 minutes (depending on treatment). Mirror Mirror is one of the only aesthetic providers in Houston with more than three CoolSculpting machines available. You may be wondering ” is Coolsculpting worth it? ” You should be aware that two areas can be treated at one time, such as both upper arms, or both the right and left flanks. Double the treatment in half the time means a more efficient and worthwhile procedure. *
CoolSculpting Recovery
Once this procedure is finished, patients are free to return to their normal activities. Work, school, even exercise, can be resumed immediately. Initially, mild redness, swelling, and bruising may occur; these will resolve over the next several weeks. Itching and tenderness are not uncommon, but will also resolve quickly. CoolSculpting holds little risk for complications. The treatment is completely safe for the surrounding tissue and skin. *
Results from The CoolSculpting Treatment

Final CoolSculpting results are not immediately noticeable. After about 16 weeks, the full results of a CoolSculpting treatment can be appreciated.

Houston’s CoolSculpting FAQs
It is a non-invasive procedure designed to rid the body of unsightly deposits of fat and fatty tissue. This procedure uses cryolipolysis (concentrated cold temperatures) to target and destroy layers of fat cells; reducing the appearance of fat and bulges.
The CoolSculpting applicators will deliver extreme cold temperatures to the target area. This chill will essentially freeze the fat cells, causing them to perish. The process will also stimulate the body’s removal of these unneeded cells. Over the course of a few weeks, as the body naturally metabolizes these dead fat cells, the appearance will improve. *
