Based on the procedure called Cryolipolysis, CoolSculpting was established by the medical device company, ZELTIQ. The procedure does not harm any surrounding tissues other than the targeted fat cells. It has been found that fat cells below the dermis are successfully harmed by controlled cooling for a specific time period. This then leads to their gradual reduction, and finally, the fat cells die.

This, in vast contrast to other treatments available, which involve ultrasound, heat or chemical injectables which damage fat cells, is more beneficial to the patient. These can cause tissue damage even though unintended. CoolSculpting leads to the damage of only fat cells, which are then removed by our immune system naturally over the next few months.
