If you have pockets of fat in the midsection or other parts of your body, there are non-invasive fat reduction procedures that can effectively address your cosmetic issues. A revolutionary fat reduction treatment that has become a favorite among patients is the CoolSculpting treatment, a fat removal procedure that uses fat-freezing technology to eliminate unwanted fats in certain parts of the body.
A word of caution though: CoolSculpting isn’t a weight loss solution, so if you are looking to lose a significant amount of fat, it’s best to consult your doctor about an effective weight loss program designed specifically to address your unique needs, advises Dr. John Tang, M.D., Co-Founder of, and Medical Director at Rejuvé.

4. Back/bra fat
For women, a common problem area in the back, specifically the fat that causes bulges on the back, just under the bra. Fat around on the bra line are noticeable even under the clothes, often protruding through the shirt and giving you visible bulges that look like waves of fat on the back. CoolSculpting can effectively reduce fat in this area as well, giving the patient a flatter and sexier back.
5. Thighs
