CoolSculpting works by safely freezing your fat cells. Once these fat cells are destroyed, your body disposes of them naturally. Coolsculpting doesn’t affect any other cells in your body, so the procedure is very safe when overseen by our team of medical experts.

The CoolSculpting Process
What to Expect
The CoolSculpting Process
Step 1: Consultation
When you visit Erasable Med Spa for CoolSculpting in Tampa, you’ll start off with a complimentary consultation with one of our expert providers. During this conversation, we take the time to learn more about you and develop your personalized treatment plan based on your wants and needs. After that, we can move forward with your CoolSculpting session!
Step 2: Treatment
During your appointment, it’s easy to sit back, relax, and say goodbye to stubborn fat. After you and your provider select the treatment area, they apply a specialized protective membrane and then position the applicator. The protective barrier sits between the device and your skin to keep your skin healthy and hydrated.
You may experience a cool or wet sensation accompanied by a slight tugging or pulling, which usually subsides within 5 to 10 minutes of treatment. While this initial time is not painful, you may find it unusual or uncomfortable.
During your procedure, you may choose to read, check your email, or even take a nap. Your provider monitors your health and comfort throughout your appointment and makes any necessary adjustments to the treatment.
Step 3: Results
There’s no downtime after CoolSculpting in Tampa; you’re free to return to your normal activities—most patients resume their workout routine the next day. Some patients may experience mild swelling, redness, or numbness in the treatment area, but these should subside within 24 hours.
You may notice changes to your figure a few weeks after your treatment as your body naturally disposes of the fat cells. While some patients reach their desired physique after a single appointment, most clients achieve optimal results with a series of 2 to 3 CoolSculpting sessions.
Targeted fat cells are gone for good, but future weight gain can cause the remaining tissues to expand, obscuring your results. Our experts recommend prioritizing regular exercise and a nutritious diet to maintain your new figure.
How Coolsculpting Works
Coolsculpting uses a process called cryolipolysis that takes advantage of an interesting quirk of the human body; fat freezes at a higher temperature than skin and other cells in your body. What this means is that we can freeze your fat cells and leave the rest of your body unharmed.
Coolsculpting in Tampa uses a special applicator that freezes your fat cells, neutralizing them. Your body is then able to process the dead fat cell and dispose of it, all without impacting the rest of your body!

Benefits of CoolSculpting in Tampa
Personalized
At Erasable Med Spa, we understand that every client has unique aesthetic goals and concerns. That’s why we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all treatments. When you meet with our expert providers during your customized consultation, they work with you to create a treatment strategy tailored to your body to help you reach your fat reduction goals.
Each of the CoolSculpting Elite’s 7 specialized applicators features C-shaped curves that follow your body’s natural contours, and they come in distinct shapes and sizes. During your appointment for CoolSculpting in Tampa, your provider “maps” your areas of concern and matches them to the right applicator for a truly customized approach to body sculpting.
Effective
CoolSculpting is clinically proven and FDA-cleared for non-invasive fat reduction across 9 body areas. Unlike other aesthetic technologies, which simply metabolize fat or assist in lymphatic drainage, CoolSculpting in Tampa forces fatty tissue to break down.
The body eliminates these damaged cells, yielding a 20% to 25% fat reduction in the treatment area. Although future weight gain can obscure your newfound figure, proper maintenance techniques support noticeable and lasting results.
Advanced
Our cutting-edge CoolSculpting Elite service freezes twice as much fat as previous applicators, increasing efficacy and shortening your treatment time. Advanced sensors monitor the device’s cooling intensity to accurately freeze fat while protecting the surrounding skin, muscles, and tissues.
CoolSculpting Elite’s redesigned applicators also feature specialized vacuum suction technology to reduce the risk of paradoxical adipose hyperplasia (PAH). While this side effect is a rare reaction, a comprehensive redesign offers low-risk, more efficient treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions About CoolSculpting
Most patients need at least 2 treatments of CoolSculpting in Tampa to see optimal results. Our CoolSculpting specialist will work with you during your consultation to identify your aesthetic goals and design your ideal treatment plan.
While CoolSculpting starts working immediately, it takes time for your body to process and dispose of the fat cells. You’ll see your final results in 2 to 3 months after your last treatment. After that, your results will be permanent! Keep in mind that coolsculpting in Tampa can’t stop new fat cells from growing, so ti’s important to maintain healthy habits to achieve truly permanent results.
We offer several treatments to help our patients lose fat and build muscle. if you’re unsure about Coolsculpt Elite, consider trying truSculpt iD or truSculpt Flex services. If you’re still unsure, feel free to reach out to our team to discuss your personal situation with us. We’ll listen to your goals and needs and help develop a treatment plan that’s perfect for you.
Coolsculpt Elite is considered to be a very safe procedure. The treatment is based on the fact that fat freezes before other skin cells, so the process should be safe for your skin. Plus, the treatment is noninvasive, unlike some fat-reduction treatments.
We recommend CoolSculpting in Tampa for clients who want to eliminate stubborn, “pinchable” fat pockets that haven’t responded to diet and exercise. This treatment suits patients seeking non-invasive, gradual fat reduction without the extensive downtime associated with surgical procedures.
Additionally, clients may choose CoolSculpting over our other body sculpting options, like truSculpt iD, due to certain medical conditions. Patients with implanted metal devices, such as pacemakers, are not eligible for truSculpt iD. In these cases, CoolSculpting makes a safer alternative.
At Erasable Med Spa, both men and women can benefit from the CoolSculpting Elite, although treatment areas typically vary by gender.
Male patients often target fat in the abdomen, “love handles,” chest, and jawline, while women frequently target the stomach, thighs, upper back, and chin. Regardless of which areas a patient wants to address, our expert team can help create a comprehensive strategy to help them look and feel better.
Certain medical conditions or skin disorders may prevent you from receiving CoolSculpting in Tampa. To ensure client safety and comfort, we do not recommend this treatment to patients who:
- Are currently pregnant or breastfeeding
- Have hernias, open wounds, or active skin infections in the treatment area
- Struggle with skin conditions such as eczema or dermatitis
- Have significant scarring or loose skin in the treatment area
- Have cold-sensitivity disorders that cause blood clots, such as cryoglobulinemia or Raynaud’s
CoolSculpting is not a weight loss treatment. We do not recommend this device for patients with a BMI of 30 or above, and instead, we refer them to our medical weight loss programs. While a customized treatment strategy may pair body contouring with medical weight loss support, these recommendations vary depending on the client.

At Erasable Med Spa, we offer several treatments to help our patients lose fat and build muscle. If you’re unsure if CoolSculpt Elite is the next step in your aesthetic journey, consider trying our truSculpt iD or truSculpt Flex services, or pairing multiple body contouring options together.
These body sculpting techniques target stubborn fat pockets and muscle density to create the foundation for a more toned physique.
- truSculpt iD utilizes radiofrequency (RF) energy to damage unwanted fat cells while simultaneously tightening lax skin.
- truSculpt Flex triggers involuntary muscle contractions through multi-directional stimulation (MDS) to increase muscle strength and density.

CoolSculpting Elite is considered a safe procedure.
This body contouring treatment is based on the process of cryolipolysis—the fact that fat freezes at a higher temperature than the surrounding skin, muscle, and tissue. While CoolSculpting targets and eliminates stubborn fat, your skin remains unharmed. This preserves your tissue health and quality while effectively targeting unwanted fat.
Plus, the treatment is non-invasive, unlike some fat-reduction treatments, such as surgery. Rather than disrupting the skin and muscles surrounding targeted fat, CoolSculpting Elite bypasses these structures. While some patients may experience temporary swelling, redness, or numbness in the treatment area, most resume their complete routines the next day.
To provide our patients with total peace of mind, we offer the CoolSculpting Elite model and advanced safety protocols.
After improving on the original system, this device minimizes the risk of paradoxical adipose hyperplasia (PAH), a rare side effect that some scientists associate with cryolipolysis. During PAH, treated fat cells may expand or harden into a painless, firm mass in the treated area.
CoolSculpting Elite features redesigned applicators, improved vacuum technology, and advanced thermal controls for more reliable treatment.
- C-shaped applicators resemble the body’s natural curves more closely than the original U-shaped design. This spreads the cooling effects across a larger surface area, improving suction and creating a more uniform treatment.
- Advanced vacuum pressure evenly suctions fatty tissue in the treatment area, minimizing the risk of “pinching tissue,” which can lead to patient discomfort and PAH. The system’s sensors monitor each applicator’s seal during treatment, alerting your provider if the device needs adjustment.
- Freeze Detect and CoolControl sensors consistently monitor the skin’s temperature, detecting uneven pressure, suction, or heat distribution. This precise treatment minimizes the risk of inflammation or irritation to fat cells.
At Erasable Med Spa, client safety is a priority. Our board-certified physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants undergo extensive training for CoolSculpting in Tampa before administering any treatment to our patients.
We’re dedicated to making our med spa a place where people want to spend their time—and that only happens if we deliver safe treatment to every patient.
