CoolSculpting™
This just in! The next generation of CoolSculpting technology has arrived to Wilmington Dermatology Center.
The new technology results in treating stubborn fat in less time with greater comfort! Read below to learn all about CoolSculpting and ask us about how WDC is a ‘CoolSculpting Complete’ practice featuring ALL of the NEW generation of CoolSculpting applicators along with the newest technology in muscle stimulation with Cooltone by Coolsculpting™ . Coolsculpting™ from Wilmington’s leading CoolSculpting and CoolTone practice is a patented, non-invasive, clinically proven procedure designed to selectively reduce fat layers in problem areas. This unique technology cools and freezes the unwanted fat cells without surgery or downtime that results in a visible reduction of fat. The treated problem cells are gone for good, creating an ideal non-invasive long-term treatment.
The Coolsculpting™ procedure is also perfectly paired with our Cooltone by Coolsculpting™ device, which is used for muscle toning. This device is FDA-cleared for toning, firming, and strengthening the muscles of the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs. CoolTone’s muscle stimulation brings you 50% more magnetic intensity than the leading competitor. These devices together offer the most advanced technology in body contouring.
How it works
Coolsculpting™ is based off the insight of Cryolipolysis®, the idea that cold can selectively affect and eliminate fat cells without damaging the skin or surrounding tissue. Despite diets and strict exercise regimens, many of us have stubborn fat that we can’t seem to make go away. Coolsculpting™ technology uses this controlled cooling to target and kill these fat cells, naturally eliminating them from the body in the weeks that follow. Cool sculpting™ is the world’s #1 non-invasive fat-reduction procedure.
What areas can be treated
The most commonly treated areas for Coolsculpting™ are stubborn abdominal fat, love handles, under chin, arms, and both inner and outer thighs. Coolsculpting™ comes with multiple applicator sizes in order to fit a specific areas need. Coolsculpting™ is specifically designed for unwanted fat the resists diet and exercise and as such, is more of a non-surgical alternative to liposuction than it is a weight loss solution for people.

Coolsculpting™ Results and Testimonials
What our patient’s are saying
“I recently had CoolSculpting at Wilmington Dermatology and am thrilled with the results. I lost 2.5″ in my waist and abdomen which I’d never been able to do with exercising and diet. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. George and her staff, specifically Shelley who did my procedure. I’ve had other appointments in the office and have never had to wait more than five minutes which is amazing in a doctor’s office. I would highly recommend Dr. George and her team for any cosmetic procedure” – B D
Are you a Coolsculpting™ Candidate?
The ideal Coolsculpting™ candidates are men and women near their ideal body weight who eat well and exercise regularly, with stubborn pockets of fat that have not responded to their healthy lifestyle. Unlike a number of surgeries, Coolsculpting™ is not a weight loss solution for overweight people. The ideal candidates understand this and are seeking spot fat reduction—not surgical procedures. You should not undergo Coolsculpting™ if you suffer from cryoglobulinemia or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria. The best way to determine if Coolsculpting™ will help you reach your desired goals is by coming in for a free one on one consultation with a Wilmington Dermatology provider. We will then be able to determine if Coolsculpting™ is the best option for you. *Results may vary
