About CoolSculpting in Costa Mesa
CoolSculpting uses a process called cryolipolysis that freezes your fat cells while leaving the surrounding body tissue unharmed. This freezing of fat cells triggers a process that extirpates the fat cells. Your body’s lymphatic system will then remove the dead fat cells as it would any other waste.[1] This process leads to natural-looking, long-lasting results.

Your Personal Consultation with Skin Perfect
Your CoolSculpting journey begins with a consultation in Costa Mesa with Skin Perfect. During your consultation, you will share your medical history, cosmetic goals, and what you expect from CoolSculpting. Skin Perfect will then explain how CoolSculpting works and what results are achievable. If CoolSculpting doesn’t match your goals (if you are looking to treat excess loose skin, for instance) then we will make alternative recommendations.
Erin Borini, MS, PA-C, and the rest of the team at Skin Perfect are dedicated to providing patients with the latest advances in body contouring.
Book an appointment with Skin Perfect to discover the benefits of freezing your fat away. You can also call or text our office in Costa Mesa at (714) 278-3506.
Procedure
When you come in for CoolSculpting, bring in something to read, listen to, or watch. You’ll be made comfortable in your treatment room and your Skin Perfect clinician will prep the treatment area. They will then apply the CoolSculpting applicator. You just have to sit back and entertain yourself while the applicator does all the work.
Easy Recovery
A great benefit to CoolSculpting is no extended downtime. With CoolSculpting, you can resume your daily activities on the same day as your session. You may experience some soreness or swelling but that will dissipate on its own in a few days.
Results
CoolSculpting offers proven results and high patient satisfaction. Studies have proven that CoolSculpting results in roughly 20% localized fat reduction.[2] For some patients, this reduction will be perfect. In other patients, a second procedure may be necessary to achieve the desired outcome.

Costa Mesa Instructions
What to Expect During Your Treatment
- CoolSculpting is a non-surgical procedure that may take from one to several hours, depending on your treatment plan.
- No topical anesthesia or pain medication is required.
- Please be prepared to take before, during, and after photos for clinical documentation. Your photos will NOT be released without your signed consent and explicit permission, if you choose to do so.
- As the procedure is initiated, vacuum pressure draws tissue into an applicator cup between cooling panels. The vacuum pressure may cause sensations of pulling, tugging, throbbing, and pinching in the area being treated.
- You may also experience intense stinging, tingling, aching or cramping. These sensations generally subside as the area becomes numb.
What to Expect Immediately After Your Treatment
- Immediately after the procedure, your treated area may look or feel stiff and transient blanching (temporary whitening of the skin or redness) may occur.
- You may feel a sense of nausea or dizziness as your body naturally warms and sensation returns to your treatment area. These are normal reactions that typically resolve within minutes.
- The treated area may be red for up to a few hours after the applicator is removed. This is an expected but temporary effect after CoolSculpting.
- Bruising, swelling and tenderness can occur in the treated area. This typically resolves within a week or two.
- Following abdominal coolsculpting – do not do abdominal workouts for 1-4 days. It can take up to a week to recover depending on the soreness of the abdomen. Abdominal crunches or abdominal workouts will prolong the swelling. If you feel well the day following your coolsculpting procedure, feel free to continue with your daily exercise (avoiding abdominal workouts).
- Nausea, tingling, stinging and cramping in the treatment area are often reported on treatment day.
- There is typically very minimal recovery time after CoolSculpting. Most patients are able to return to their daily routine immediately after the procedure.What to Expect in the Days and Weeks Following Your Treatment
- It is common for the treated area to feel bloated and look swollen in the first few days and weeks following your treatment.
- You may experience a temporary dulling sensation (numbness), sharp shocks (muscle spasms) or delayed onset of pain and this is normal. These symptoms typically resolve within a few hours but can last for several weeks to months after your procedure.
- At some point within the first two weeks following the procedure, you may experience one or more of the following sensations
- Deep itching
- Tingling
- Numbness
- Tenderness to the touch
- Pain in the treated area
- Strong cramping,
- Diarrhea
- Muscle spasms, aching and/or soreness. Extra strength Tylenol 1000 mg (2 tablets) may be taken every 6 hours for pain if you are not allergic to it. Over-the-counter Benadryl is helpful for the deep itching and tingling sensations. Consult with your doctor if these conditions persist beyond two weeks or worsen over time.
- Following the procedure, a gradual reduction in the thickness of the fat layer will take place. You may start to see changes as early as three weeks After CoolSculpting and you will experience the most dramatic results after three months.
- To ensure the most optimal results, it is mandatory that you wear a specialized compression garment for a minimum of four weeks following your procedure. This minimizes irregularities and maximizes skin contraction. Please visit www.designveronique.com to order your garment in advance if you are not ordering in the office.
- Skin Perfect can order your compression garment for a fee of $150. You also have the option of visiting www.designveronique.com to order the garment yourself.
Next Steps
- Weight gain will prevent you from appreciating your full results. Maintaining a healthy diet and a daily exercise routine can help prevent this.
- Drink at least 8 glasses of water per day.
- Schedule a follow-up medical assessment to review your clinical results and discuss the option of additional treatments to achieve desired fat reduction.

How Much Does CoolSculpting Cost in Costa Mesa?
CoolSculpting can be used on many locations of different sizes. The ultimate cost of your procedure will depend on how many locations are treated and how extensive those locations are. After your consultation, Skin Perfect will provide you with pricing for your custom-tailored procedure.
FAQ
Does CoolSculpting really work?
Absolutely. Studies and self-reported websites verify the effectiveness of CoolSculpting at reducing fat deposits and revealing smooth muscle tone underneath.
Can CoolSculpting tighten the skin?
While CoolSculpting isn’t a skin tightening procedure, per se, it can result in some benefits in skin thickening that can improve crepe-like skin. If you want extensive skin tightening, then ask during your consultation and your Skin Perfect body contouring specialist can recommend alternative procedures.
Can fat return after CoolSculpting?
During adolescence, your body establishes a fixed number of fat cells. CoolSculpting will reduce this fixed number of fat cells and those fat cells can never come back. But, your remaining fat cells can still expand if you do not adhere to a healthy lifestyle. CoolSculpting isn’t a replacement for a healthy lifestyle; it’s intended to supplement a healthy lifestyle and enhance the results you’ve achieved through diet and exercise.
Disclaimer:
CoolSculpting(R) is FDA-cleared to treat visible fat bulges in 9 areas of the body. Some common side effects include temporary numbness, discomfort, and swelling.
