How safe is CoolSculpting?

FDA's MAUDE database (via openFDA) holds 11,526 adverse-event reports for cryolipolysis devices (product code OOK, i.e. CoolSculpting-type 'contact cooling system for aesthetic use') as of the 2026-10-13 data update; 11,316 are coded as injury and 205 as malfunction. [5]

Of the 11,526 MAUDE reports for cryolipolysis devices, 10,905 list 'hyperplasia' as a patient problem, i.e. reported paradoxical adipose hyperplasia (PAH) is the dominant reported event, far ahead of hernia (109), pain (83), necrosis (27) and second-degree burn (27) (2026 data). [6]

A 2020 systematic review of 53 articles on cryolipolysis adverse events (Hedayati et al., Dermatologic Surgery) found the most common were redness, numbness/tingling, bruising and swelling, with rarer serious events including severe or persistent pain, hyperpigmentation, motor neuropathy and paradoxical adipose hyperplasia. [8]

What is the success rate of CoolSculpting?

A 2025 systematic review and meta-analysis of cryolipolysis (Ravindran et al., Obesity Reviews; 30 studies, 3,158 participants) reported a pooled patient satisfaction rate of 80.4%, and common minor side effects of numbness (49.5%), redness (44.5%), swelling (30.5%) and pain (28.8%). [7]

What published research says

These numbers come from outside sources, not our directory; each one links to its source below.

• ASPS's 2024 estimate of noninvasive fat reduction procedures (447,581) is the lowest since 2020 (357,938) and reverses the 2022-2023 growth. [1]
• ASPS reported 357,938 noninvasive fat reduction procedures in 2020 (down 7% from 386,557 in 2019) and 86,350 cellulite treatments in 2020 (down 24% from 112,975 in 2019). [4]
• ASPS's 2023 average physician fees were $1,157 for noninvasive fat reduction (down from $1,226 in 2022), $2,326 for noninvasive skin tightening (up from $1,832), $500 for sclerotherapy (up from $428) and $1,829 for skin resurfacing (up from $1,489). [2]
• ASPS's 2024 statistics are national estimates extrapolated from about 1,000 survey responses by ASPS member plastic surgeons plus CosmetAssure data (95% confidence, +/-4.62% margin of error); minimally invasive counts also include data from non-member dermatologists and otolaryngologists. [1]
• The same 2025 meta-analysis found that 12 weeks after cryolipolysis, abdominal circumference fell by a mean 3.56 cm and suprailiac fat thickness by 5.22 mm versus baseline. [7]
• Allergan's CoolSculpting consumer site says CoolSculpting is 'backed by clinical research with over 17 million treatments performed worldwide' (manufacturer claim, read Oct. 2026). [9]
• Allergan's last separately reported CoolSculpting figures show US body-contouring (CoolSculpting) net revenue of $248.1 million in 2019, down 31.4% from $361.6 million in 2018, which Allergan attributed to lower system sales and procedure volume. [10]
• AbbVie disclosed that in Q4 2023 it decided to cut sales and marketing investment in CoolSculpting and took a partial impairment, writing the CoolSculpting intangible asset down to a fair value of $290 million from a carrying value of $1.3 billion. [11]
• The Aesthetic Society's 2022 statistics estimate 400,180 nonsurgical body contouring procedures in 2022 (up 31% from 306,174 in 2021) with an average charge of $1,065, down 21% from 2021. [13]

What these numbers can't tell you

• Counts are Google Maps listings we classify as med spas, so they include dermatology and plastic surgery practices that offer med spa treatments and exclude spas without a Google listing.
• A treatment counts when the spa's Google listing or website names it, so a spa with an outdated menu can be over- or under-counted.
• Credentials count only clinicians a spa names with a credential (MD, DO, NP, PA, RN) on its own website, so spas that leave their team off their website are left out of those shares.
• We hold no patient records: every figure describes providers, their listings and their Google reviews, not who gets treated.
• Ratings and review themes are Google's, as shown on each listing on the snapshot date; Google filters some reviews and does not publish how.
