The Best Areas for CoolSculpting: Target Stubborn Fat with Precision
CoolSculpting® is one of the most effective non-surgical fat reduction treatments, designed to eliminate stubborn fat pockets that are resistant to diet and exercise. But where does CoolSculpting work best? Understanding which areas can be treated, and the difference between subcutaneous fat vs. visceral fat, will help you determine if CoolSculpting is the right solution for your body sculpting goals.
With so many areas to choose from, which will you choose?
CoolSculpting Works Best on Pinchable Subcutaneous Fat
CoolSculpting targets subcutaneous fat, the pinchable fat that sits just beneath the skin. This type of fat is typically found in common problem areas like the abdomen, thighs, flanks, arms, and chin. Because it lies between the skin and muscle, subcutaneous fat can be effectively reduced using CoolSculpting’s cryolipolysis (fat-freezing) technology.
However, CoolSculpting does not treat visceral fat, which is the deeper fat surrounding internal organs. If you have a firm, bloated belly rather than pinchable fat, lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise will be necessary to reduce visceral fat.
Top Areas Where CoolSculpting Works Best
1. Abdomen (Stomach Fat Reduction)
One of the most popular CoolSculpting treatment areas is the abdomen. Whether you struggle with a lower belly pooch, post-pregnancy fat, or stubborn pockets of fat that won’t budge, CoolSculpting can help flatten and sculpt your midsection.
✔️ Ideal for pinchable belly fat
✔️ Treats upper and lower abdomen
✔️ Complements diet and exercise for a toned stomach

2. Flanks (Love Handles)
Love handles can be particularly frustrating since they often persist despite a healthy lifestyle. CoolSculpting works exceptionally well on the flanks to create a more sculpted waistline and a smoother, more contoured silhouette.
✔️ Targets stubborn side fat
✔️ Helps achieve a more defined waistline
✔️ Can be combined with abdominal CoolSculpting for maximum results
3. Thighs (Inner & Outer Thighs, Banana Roll)
CoolSculpting is highly effective for reducing thigh fat, helping you achieve leaner, more sculpted legs.
• Inner Thighs: Creates a thigh gap and reduces chafing
• Outer Thighs (Saddlebags): Slims the outer thigh area for a more contoured leg shape
• Banana Roll (Under the Buttocks): Smooths fat deposits below the buttocks for a more lifted appearance

4. Upper Arms (Arm Fat Reduction)
CoolSculpting is an excellent solution for flabby upper arms or bat wings, particularly for those who want to avoid surgery like an arm lift.
✔️ Best for pinchable arm fat
✔️ Enhances muscle definition and overall arm contour
✔️ Non-invasive alternative to liposuction

5. Double Chin (Submental Fat Reduction)
A double chin can make your face appear heavier and older than you feel. CoolSculpting for the submental area can help sculpt the jawline and neckline, giving you a more youthful, contoured look.
✔️ Reduces fat under the chin
✔️ Defines the jawline
✔️ Can be combined with Morpheus8 skin tightening for even better results

6. Back Fat & Bra Bulge
Back fat and bra bulge are common concerns, especially for women. CoolSculpting helps smooth out the upper and lower back, creating a sleek, toned appearance.
✔️ Reduces bulging fat around the bra line
✔️ Smooths out the upper and lower back
✔️ Helps clothes fit better
7. Distal Thigh & Knee Area
Excess fat above the knees can make legs appear shorter and less toned. CoolSculpting can refine and sculpt the lower thigh and knee area for a more proportionate leg shape.
✔️ Treats stubborn fat pockets above the knee
✔️ Can be combined with thigh CoolSculpting for complete leg contouring
✔️ Ideal for individuals looking to enhance lower leg definition
