Your body’s fat cells remain the same once you reach adulthood. What happens to these cells is that they will either grow or shrink depending on your diet and lifestyle, but the number of cells remains the same. CoolSculpting destroys fat cells in designated areas, and the body eliminates them for good. Since it reduces the total number of fat cells in your body, it also makes it so that your body can no longer store as much fat as it could have before, leaving the treatment areas “sculpted” even if you were to gain some weight in the future. However, to maintain your CoolSculpting results, you should avoid significant weight gain through your healthy diet and exercise.
