CoolForm

CoolForm is a non-invasive cryolipolysis treatment that permanently destroys fat cells through controlled cooling technology. Available at Skinfolio's West Vancouver location, this advanced fat-freezing system targets stubborn fat deposits that resist diet and exercise, providing body contouring results without surgery or downtime.

What Is CoolForm?

CoolForm is a cryolipolysis system developed by LUVO Medical. It uses controlled cooling and vacuum applicators to target localized fat beneath the skin.

With multiple applicator sizes and the ability to treat more than one area simultaneously, CoolForm can be customized for different body shapes and treatment areas.

How Does Fat Freezing Work?

Fat cells are more sensitive to cold temperatures than surrounding tissues. During treatment, CoolForm cools the targeted fat layer to trigger a natural process that damages selected fat cells. Over the following weeks and months, the body gradually clears these cells, reducing the visible fat bulge.

The treatment is intended to reduce localized subcutaneous fat. It does not treat visceral fat located around the internal organs.

What Happens During Treatment?

Your provider will assess the amount and distribution of fat before selecting the appropriate applicator. A protective membrane is applied, and the applicator uses suction to draw the targeted tissue into the cooling chamber.

You may initially feel strong cold, pulling or pressure. The area usually becomes numb as treatment continues, allowing most clients to relax during the session. Depending on the number and size of areas, an appointment may take approximately 60 minutes.

CoolForm Vs Other Body Contouring

Unlike treatments that use heat or energy to reduce fat, CoolForm uses controlled cooling (cryolipolysis) to freeze and destroy fat cells. Compared to surgical liposuction, CoolForm offers no incisions, no anesthesia, no downtime, and a lower risk profile, though results are more gradual and modest. Compared to Emsculpt Neo, which builds muscle while reducing fat, CoolForm focuses exclusively on fat reduction and does not stimulate muscle tissue.

When Will I See Results?

Results appear gradually as the body processes the treated fat cells. Some clients notice early changes within several weeks, with more visible improvement generally developing over two to three months.

The number of sessions required depends on the treatment area, amount of fat and desired degree of contouring. Additional sessions may be recommended after your results are assessed.

Treatment Areas

CoolForm may be used to target localized fat in areas such as:

Abdomen
Flanks or love handles
Inner thighs
Outer thighs
Upper arms
Bra-area fat
Back fat
Fat beneath the chin

Available treatment areas depend on whether the tissue can be safely positioned within an appropriate applicator.

FAQ

Everything you need to know.

Both treatments use cryolipolysis to reduce localized fat, but CoolForm and CoolSculpting are different branded systems produced by different manufacturers.

No. CoolForm is intended for localized subcutaneous fat and body contouring. It does not produce significant weight loss or treat visceral fat.

You may feel strong cold, suction, pulling or pressure when treatment begins. The area usually becomes numb as it cools. Tenderness or sensitivity may occur afterward.

Some clients may be satisfied after one session, while others require additional treatments. Your provider will recommend a plan based on the amount of fat and your desired result.

Changes develop gradually over several weeks. More visible results generally appear two to three months after treatment as the body clears the affected fat cells.

CoolForm primarily reduces localized fat and is not a dedicated skin-tightening treatment. Another technology may be recommended when skin laxity is the main concern.

Most clients can return to regular exercise immediately, provided the area feels comfortable. Follow any individualized instructions from your provider.
