How To Get Rid Of Banana Rolls - Can CoolSculpting Help?

Tired of Stubborn Fat Under Your Butt? Here’s What You Can Do!

If you’ve noticed a little extra fat right under your butt, you’re not alone! Those pesky “banana rolls” can be frustrating, but the good news is—you don’t have to live with them. Whether they’re caused by genetics, weight fluctuations, or just the natural aging process, there are effective ways to smooth things out and achieve a more sculpted look.

What Exactly Is Banana Roll Fat?

Banana rolls are those small pockets of fat that sit just beneath your buttocks, creating a rounded, bulging appearance. While totally normal, they can be a stubborn trouble spot that’s tough to get rid of through diet and exercise alone. That’s why many people turn to body contouring treatments for extra help.

Can CoolSculpting Get Rid of Banana Rolls?

Yes! CoolSculpting is a great non-surgical option for reducing banana roll fat. This FDA-cleared treatment uses controlled cooling (a process called cryolipolysis) to freeze and eliminate fat cells. While it won’t completely erase them—especially if skin laxity is a concern—it can significantly reduce their appearance, leaving you with a smoother, more contoured look.

Why Choose CoolSculpting for Banana Roll Fat?

CoolSculpting comes with plenty of benefits, including:

  • Non-invasive treatment: No needles, no surgery, and no downtime.
  • Permanent fat reduction: Eliminates up to 25% of fat cells in the treated area per session.
  • Customizable results: Treatments are tailored to your body’s unique needs.
  • Gradual, natural-looking changes: Results develop over several weeks, allowing your body to adjust naturally.
  • Minimal discomfort: While you might feel cold or tingling at first, the area quickly becomes numb.
  • No downtime: You can get back to your regular routine right after your session!

What to Expect: CoolSculpting for Banana Rolls

If you’re considering CoolSculpting, here’s how the process works:

  1. Applicator Placement: Our clinicians apply the cooling device to the targeted area.
  2. Suction & Cooling: The applicator gently pulls in the fat and exposes it to controlled cooling.
  3. Fat Freezing: The cold temperature freezes the fat cells while leaving the surrounding tissue unharmed. You might feel some cold or tingling, but the area usually becomes numb quickly.
  4. Post-Treatment Massage: Once the cooling is done, the clinician massages the area to break up the frozen fat cells and boost results.

How Long Until You See Results?

You may start noticing changes as early as three weeks after treatment, with the most dramatic results appearing around two months. Your body will continue flushing out the dead fat cells for up to six months, so the improvements keep coming over time.

Are You a Good Candidate for CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting works best if you’re at or near your ideal weight but have stubborn areas that won’t budge with diet and exercise. If you’re looking for a non-surgical way to smooth and sculpt your lower body, this could be the perfect solution.

CoolSculpting vs. Other Fat Reduction Treatments

Liposuction is another option for banana roll fat, but it’s invasive and requires recovery time. CoolSculpting, on the other hand, is non-invasive and lets you get back to your routine right away. If you’re looking for a convenient, effective way to reduce stubborn fat without surgery, CoolSculpting is worth considering.
