Men and women at our Columbus, Ohio, practice rely on CoolSculpting for targeted, convenient nonsurgical fat reduction. If you want a flatter tummy, shapelier hips, or slimmer thighs, CoolSculpting is a popular, FDA-cleared liposuction alternative that minimizes those bulges that resist diet and exercise. There is no downtime following a CoolSculpting treatment with Dr. Anne Taylor, and many patients see excellent results after just one session.
If you exercise regularly and remain frustrated by bulges of stubborn fat, request a consultation using our online form to learn more about CoolSculpting and whether you are a good candidate. Or call our office at (614) 569-2649 to schedule an appointment.

CoolSculpting is best for both men and women who are near their ideal weight but can’t seem to shed fat in certain areas. It can treat areas of fat on the:
People interested in targeting fat that causes a double chin may also be good candidates for KYBELLA® injections.
The cost of CoolSculpting at our Columbus, Ohio, practice varies with the number of treatment areas and sessions necessary to achieve your desired results. While cost is an important factor to consider, it’s always essential to prioritize your provider’s credentials and experience over cost. We offer financing through CareCredit® to make your transformation even more attainable.
While both are effective fat reduction procedures that are not meant for weight loss, CoolSculpting and liposuction have their own pros and cons.

Dr. Taylor can help you decide which option is best for you during your one-on-one consultation.
Dr. Taylor creates a treatment plan based on your specific needs. Depending on your areas of concern, the CoolSculpting procedure involves specialized applicators. For example, if you want to reduce fat in your upper and lower abdomen, your skin and tissue will be gently sucked between 2 cooling panels that carefully cool the fat without damaging the skin. Such treatments take about an hour per area.
For treatment areas that don’t have “pinchable” bulges, such as the thighs, we use a different applicator that straps a cooling plate comfortably against your skin. These treatments take about 2 hours each.
Some patients wish to treat multiple areas of the body at once, so we offer DualSculpting. During your session, 2 CoolSculpting machines operate simultaneously, cutting your treatment time in half. This means that you can get in and out quicker, so you can get back to your normal daily activities sooner. You’ll get the benefit of comprehensive body contouring in a more efficient appointment.
No matter which treatment head we use, intense cold is delivered to the lower layers of your skin. The device uses a process developed by Harvard researchers called cryolipolysis that targets and kills fat cells because they are more vulnerable to low temperatures than the skin and surrounding tissues. The body naturally flushes away these cells in the weeks following your CoolSculpting procedure.
Because CoolSculpting is noninvasive, the procedure itself involves little or no discomfort. Some patients report an initial suction sensation and tingling as the cooling process begins, but many browse their mobile devices or read during much of the procedure.
There really is no downtime associated with CoolSculpting. Our patients return to work or other daily activities after their treatments. You may have some redness and mild soreness, but these signs resolve quickly.
While patient experiences vary, results typically begin to develop over time as the body flushes away the damaged fat cells. Final results take approximately 2 to 4 months to become visible. If you maintain healthy diet and exercise habits, you can enjoy your results indefinitely.
