Certain areas of the body can hold onto fat long after diet and exercise have done everything they can. When this happens, a nonsurgical option may provide the extra support you need. Beverly Friedlander, MD, uses CoolSculpting at her Short Hills, New Jersey, practice to help reduce resistant pockets of fat through controlled cooling — no incisions and no downtime.
As part of our body sculpting services, CoolSculpting offers a way to refine your shape. It’s a noninvasive fat-reduction treatment that uses cryolipolysis — targeted cooling — to break down fat cells. Over the following weeks, the body naturally removes the treated cells, reducing fullness in specific areas.

How CoolSculpting Works
The CoolSculpting applicator gently pulls the tissue into a cooling panel where fat cells are exposed to a precise temperature. This affects fat cells while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. Once the cells are frozen and damaged, the body processes them gradually.
Where CoolSculpting Helps Most
CoolSculpting can refine:
- Abdomen
- Flanks
- Thighs
- Upper arms
- Back
- Under the chin
It is ideal for people who maintain a stable routine but still struggle with isolated areas of fat.
Your Treatment Session
After assessing your goals, Dr. Bev selects the applicators that best fit your anatomy. The session may take 35–75 minutes, depending on the areas treated. You can relax, read, or use your phone during the process. Mild numbness or temporary redness can occur afterward.
Results and Longevity
Improvement appears gradually as the body clears the affected fat cells. Many individuals see changes within several weeks, with continued refinement over a few months. Maintaining a consistent lifestyle supports long-lasting results.
