CryoSculpting St. Louis
Freeze Off Stubborn Fat
There is a spot that has not changed in years. You have tried. The rest of you responds and that one area sits exactly where it has always been.
What we actually do
That is not a discipline problem. Fat cells sit where they sit, and getting smaller does not let you choose where the change lands. CryoSculpting is how we go after one area directly.
We put a cold applicator on the area and hold it there. Fat cells do not handle cold the way skin and muscle do, so the cold breaks them down while everything around them is fine. Over the next few weeks your body clears them out.
The cells that go are gone. They do not come back.
A session runs about 30 minutes per area. You lie down, it gets cold, and most people find it more comfortable than they expected.
The areas we treat
- Stomach and waist, the one people ask for most
- Upper arms
- Thighs
- Back, including the roll along the bra line
- Under the chin and the neck
- Chest, for men
If your area is not on that list, ask. It is a short conversation.
What happens, step by step
Your first visit
About half an hour. We look at the area, talk about what you want changed, and tell you whether we think this will work. If it will not, you will hear that.
A session
About 30 minutes an area. Lie down, cold applicator on, done. No downtime at all, people go straight back to work.
The weeks after
The change keeps happening after you leave, because your body is still clearing the treated cells. This is not a treatment where you see the result the moment you stand up.
How many
Most people notice a difference somewhere between three and eight sessions. We take a photo every session from the same spot, so you can actually see it.
What CryoSculpting will not do
Worth being straight about, because it saves people money.
- It is not weight loss. It changes shape, not the number on the scale. It suits people already at or near the weight they want. If losing a lot of weight is the goal, start there and come back after. More on that here: fat reduction vs weight loss
- It will not tighten loose skin on its own. If skin is the issue as much as fat, that is a different tool and usually a combined plan. See cellulite treatment st louis
- It is not a one visit fix. Anyone promising that is selling you something.
Half an hour, and you leave with a plan of your own.
What our clients say
“I have had 4 treatments and have seen a remarkable improvement in my belly. I've lost 3 inches off my waist and my pants fit better! I am amazed at the improvement, this says a lot from a skeptic like myself.
Mary Brown
“Have had a few sessions for my abdomen and pubic area. Been going about a month and a half. Very pleased with results. There is a notable difference. I am now back into 34 inch waist jeans.
Monte Gibbs
“My upper arms have always bothered me. After one session, my arms already feel tighter and those sleeveless tops aren't as intimidating. I'm definitely continuing with these treatments!

Where our clients come from
We are on Old Olive Street Road in Creve Coeur, right off Olive at I-270, so the drive is short from most of west county.
Questions we get
Does it hurt?
It gets properly cold for a few minutes and then it settles. Most people describe it as bearable, and some find it relaxing. Nobody needs anything to get through it.
Are the results permanent?
The treated cells are gone for good. The fat cells still in that area can grow if your weight goes up later, so staying roughly where you are keeps what you paid for.
How many sessions will I need?
Usually three to eight before a clear difference. Your area and your starting point move that. We will give you a real number at your intro visit.
Is there any downtime?
None. You might be a little red or tingly for an hour or two. That is it.
Can I combine it with other treatments?
Yes, and most plans do. Cold on the fat, electromagnetic work for the muscle underneath, compression to help your body clear everything out. They do different jobs.
What does it cost?
It depends on how many areas and how many sessions. We work the whole thing out at your intro visit before you commit, and packages come out cheaper than session by session.
