CoolSculpting® + GLP-1 Treatment
in Fairfax, VA
When it comes to achieving your body contouring goals, combining treatments can sometimes deliver superior results. CoolSculpting® and GLP-1s are two highly effective treatments that, when used together, can help you achieve overall wellness more efficiently and effectively.
CoolSculpting is the only FDA-cleared, non-surgical fat reduction treatment that targets the stubborn areas of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise, including “love handles,” belly fat, and thighs. If you have unwanted bulges that refuse to budge—even at or near your goal weight—CoolSculpting may be the ideal solution for you.
GLP-1s are FDA-approved medication originally developed to help manage type 2 diabetes. Forefront Dermatology offers medically supervised wellness support with GLP-1s that can help you feel fuller and more satisfied, boost your self confidence and enhance quality of life.
BOOK NOWHow do GLP-1s and CoolSculpting work together for fat reduction?
CoolSculpting and GLP-1s complement each other well and are very effective when used in combination. While CoolSculpting directly targets and eliminates fat cells in specific areas, GLP-1 supports overall wellness by helping you feel fuller and more satisfied.
As you approach your wellness goals with support from GLP-1s, there may still be some stubborn areas of fat that need attention. Those areas can be targeted with CoolSculpting.
CoolSculpting eliminates stubborn fat above and below the muscles, so patients can see the tone of their muscles underneath. CoolSculpting helps to eliminate fat pockets that are resistant to diet and exercise, providing patients with the boost they need to achieve their body goals while achieving wellness goals with GLP-1s.
Used together, these treatments may help patients:
- Achieve localized fat reduction in problem areas
- Sustain overall wellness

What is the treatment like?
GLP-1 and CoolSculpting treatments are provided in different ways.
GLP-1 is administered as a weekly injection. Your provider will guide you on how to self-administer the medication at home. The injections are quick and easy. Some patients experience side effects such as mild nausea, burping, constipation, and other digestive issues. Each patient’s experience is different, and your Forefront provider will discuss potential side effects as well as information about managing any discomfort during your consultation.
CoolSculpting is performed in a clinical setting. During a CoolSculpting session, an applicator is placed on the target area, delivering controlled cooling to freeze and destroy fat cells. The procedure is comfortable, and most patients relax, read, or even nap during the treatment. Sessions typically last 35-60 minutes per area, and there is no downtime afterward. Patients typically require 1-3 sessions per treatment area, depending on their individual goals.
What are the results of GLP-1 + CoolSculpting?
Patients using this combined treatment often see noticeable improvements in both targeted fat reduction and overall wellness. CoolSculpting results become visible after a few weeks, with optimal results achieved within three months. GLP-1 supports ongoing wellness, helping patients maintain the results from CoolSculpting.
By addressing wellness from multiple angles, this combination treatment offers a comprehensive approach to body contouring. Patients who commit to a healthy lifestyle alongside these treatments often see long-lasting and life-changing results.
