Before you go
A five-minute prep list

- Save a few CoolSculpting results that show what you like and what you do not want.
- Write down the change you care about most so the consultation stays focused.
- Bring your calendar and check treatment, recovery, travel, and follow-up timing.
- Set the total amount you are comfortable spending before you discuss payment options.

The result they believe is realistic
What change should I expect, and what is unlikely to change?
3
Risks or tradeoffs to think about
Which ones apply to me, and what would the practice do if something went wrong?

The full price
What is included, what may cost more, and what might I pay for maintenance later?

What still needs an answer
Write down anything that felt vague, rushed, or different from what you expected.
