For over a decade, CoolSculpting has been toning and sculpting people’s bodies. The best candidates for this popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment are people who watch what they eat and exercise but still have layers of stubborn fat.
Years of studies and patient experience have shown where these pockets of difficult-to-remove fat usually accumulate.
So, let’s look at seven body areas that are popularly treated with CoolSculpting.
CoolSculpting Treatment Areas
CoolSculpting is a cosmetic treatment that freezes and destroys fat cells permanently. It is FDA approved to treat those areas most commonly affected by fat resistant to diet and exercise.
Fat on the following body areas responds well to CoolSculpting:
Abdomen
Abdomen or belly fat is often a nuisance for both men and women. It may limit movement, make it difficult to zip your clothes and lower your self-esteem. If the fat bulges on your belly are pinchable, not bigger than three inches, and move around, CoolSculpting is an excellent treatment for you. It tones the abdomen, making it possible to achieve those desired six-pack abs.
Thighs
Primarily women are interested in CoolSculpting for thighs. The treatment is a great option for those who wish to get a thigh gap and finally get rid of thigh chafing.
CoolSculpting also targets saddle bags—bulges of fat on the outer thighs. You may need a few treatments for finely sculpted thighs.

Flanks
Flanks or love handles are one of the most popular CoolSculpting treatment areas for men. They are fat bulges above the hips that look unattractive in tight-fitting clothing. CoolSculpting can significantly reduce fat in this area.
Buttocks
CoolSculpting is effective for baggy fat under the buttocks, also called banana rolls. The treatment reduces fat in this area, creating a smoother line from the buttocks down the rest of the leg.
Back Fat
The three locations on the back that are particularly prone to fat accumulation are:
- Lower back between the love handles
- Mid-back fat bundles
- Bra fat
There aren’t any exercises that specifically target these areas of the body. That’s where CoolSculpting comes in. The treatment can decrease fat in these areas and help you wear those tighter clothes more comfortably.

Upper Arms
People with lumpy fat around the upper arms are good candidates for the upper-arm CoolSculpting procedure.
The treatment may not be as effective for sagging under-arm skin. One CoolSculpting session can slim down the under-arm area by about 20%.
Double Chin
The small pocket of fat underneath the chin, popularly called “double chin,” is infamous for ruining one’s profile. The smallest of the CoolSculpting device’s applicators is especially suited to freeze fat cells under the chin and deliver a nicely contoured neck.
