CoolSculpting for Summer: Does It Really Work for Stubborn Belly Fat?

If you’ve been eating clean, hitting the gym, and still can’t seem to get rid of that stubborn belly fat—you’re not alone. Sometimes, no matter how disciplined we are, certain pockets of fat just don’t budge. That’s where CoolSculpting comes in.

At Ultimate You Medspa, CoolSculpting is one of our most requested summer treatments—and for good reason. It’s non-invasive, requires little to no downtime, and delivers real, noticeable results.

Let’s break down how it works, what you can expect, and whether it’s the right solution for your summer body goals.

What Is CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is an FDA-cleared treatment that uses controlled cooling to target and eliminate fat cells beneath the skin. The process is called cryolipolysis—essentially freezing fat cells until they break down and are naturally flushed from your body over time.

Best of all? It’s completely non-surgical, so there are no needles, no anesthesia, and no recovery time.

What Areas Can CoolSculpting Treat?

CoolSculpting is most commonly used to target areas where fat tends to be more stubborn, including:

• Lower belly
• Love handles (flanks)
• Thighs
• Upper arms
• Bra bulge
• Double chin

Whether you’re prepping for a beach trip or just want to feel more confident in your summer wardrobe, these are some of the top areas our clients focus on.

What Does a Treatment Feel Like?

During your session, we’ll apply a CoolSculpting applicator to the treatment area. You’ll feel a cold sensation and a bit of suction for the first few minutes, but the area typically goes numb quickly. Most clients relax, read, or even nap during the session—it’s that easy.

Each cycle lasts about 35–45 minutes depending on the area, and many clients treat more than one area in a single visit.

How Long Before I See Results?

Results aren’t instant, but they are worth the wait.

You’ll start to see changes as soon as 3 weeks after your first session, with full results developing over 2–3 months after your last session, as your body flushes out the treated fat cells. Most people require 2-3 sessions, with an average fat reduction of  20–25% in the targeted area.

Who’s a Good Candidate for CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is ideal for people who are at or near their ideal weight but struggle with isolated areas of fat that resist diet and exercise. It’s not a weight-loss solution, but it is a great tool for body contouring and enhancing your natural shape.

Is It Too Late to Start for Summer?

Not at all. June is a great time to begin CoolSculpting—especially if you’re hoping to see results by late summer. And because there’s no downtime, you can get back to enjoying pool days, barbecues, and everything else summer has to offer right away.
