CoolSculpting FAQs
Am I a good candidate for CoolSculpting® Elite?
Anyone who would like to get rid of a diet- and exercise-resistant bulge of fat may be a good candidate for CoolSculpting® Elite. Though it is an alternative to surgical fat reduction, it is not intended to be used as a weight-loss strategy to address obesity. An in-person consultation is the best way to determine whether CoolSculpting® Elite is the ideal treatment for you.
How much does CoolSculpting® Elite cost?
There are many variables to weigh when considering CoolSculpting® Elite. Price is one of the most common factors that people ask about. The cost of a treatment depends on the area or areas to be treated, how many sessions are recommended for ideal results, and more. This can all be discussed at a consultation.
Based on the number of treatments needed for your desired result, the cost can fluctuate. When you come in for your FREE consultation, your provider can go over costs with you.
How long will the treatment take?
Since every plan is customized, there is no standard time to expect. The length of a specific session, as well as the total number of sessions necessary, will depend on specifics unique to each individual patient.
How long do CoolSculpting® Elite results last?
Treatments work by killing off fat cells, which are processed by the body and do not “return.” These fat cells are considered to be gone forever.
How does CoolSculpting® Elite treatment feel?
A session is structured to minimize discomfort, though patients will feel pressure and intense cold when the treatment begins. The intensity of these sensations should fade within minutes, after which patients typically feel comfortable enough to read, enjoy a movie, work, or sleep.
Is CoolSculpting® Elite safe?
The FDA has cleared CoolSculpting® Elite as a safe and effective treatment for several areas around the body—the result of significant study and testing. In the time since, the treatment has been used around the world and now can count more than 4 million applications. Note that patients who suffer from cryoglobulinemia or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria should choose a different fat-reduction strategy.
What side effects should be expected?
Throughout the procedure itself, patients can expect sensations of a deep tugging or pulling, as well as pinching and numbness. In the hours and days after a session, the treated area may continue to cause feelings of firmness, numbness, tingling, stinging, or even pain, as well as appear red, swollen, and bruised. This should all be temporary. There are possible rare side effects, which can be discussed during a consultation.
What is the difference between CoolSculpting® and CoolSculpting® Elite?
CoolSculpting® Elite is a the newest technology with a redesigned system and redesigned applicators. The new applicators possess up to an 18% larger cooling area, leading to a more effective treatment. They are a C-shape, allowing them to conform to the body’s natural curves, offering an improved fit. CoolSculpting® Elite offers dual sculpting, so two areas can be treated at the same time, saving you time!
How soon can normal activities resume after a treatment?
Patients who are feeling up to it can return to their typical lifestyle right away after a session. Since there are no sutures or incisions, there is no concern common to surgical treatments.
When will results be visible?
Fat reduction via CoolSculpting® Elite is a gradual process. Changes may start to be visible after about three weeks, though the most dramatic results typically take about two months to appear. The treated areas can continue to slim down for four to six months.
Are supplements or strict diets and exercise necessary after CoolSculpting® Elite?
Results are best maintained by a healthy lifestyle, but there are no special after-care instructions necessary after a treatment. That said, some patients are inspired to improve their diet and activity levels after seeing their new contours.
What happens if I gain weight later?
Weight loss and gain is unique from person to person. Patients who do grow significantly heavier after achieving their ideal CoolSculpting® Elite results may notice that the fat appears more evenly spread across their body, as opposed to “collecting” in the treated area.
How long does it take to see results?
Depending on the size of the area treated and the desired goal, it may take two or more months for results to be noticed.
