Achieving your ideal body shape often involves addressing stubborn pockets of fat that resist diet and exercise. CoolSculpting® Elite offers an advanced approach to non-surgical fat reduction. This targeted treatment eliminates fat from your most challenging areas without the discomfort, risk, cost or recovery time of an invasive procedure.
What is CoolSculpting® Elite?
CoolSculpting® Elite is the latest innovation in the CoolSculpting® line of treatments. It builds on the proven technology of the original, offering improved efficiency, better results, and improved patient comfort. Designed to freeze and eliminate fat cells through controlled cooling, CoolSculpting® Elite features a number of benefits that make it faster, more comfortable, and more effective than older systems giving you the best possible experience.
How Does CoolSculpting® Work?
CoolSculpting® uses a process called cryolipolysis, which targets and freezes fat cells without damaging surrounding tissues or overlying skin. During a session, a specialized applicator delivers precise cooling to the treatment area. The fat cells are damaged and gradually break down, leaving the body through natural metabolic processes. Since fat cells do not regenerate, the results are long-lasting when paired with a healthy lifestyle.
CoolSculpting® Elite vs Original CoolSculpting®: What’s the Difference?
While both versions utilize cryolipolysis technology, CoolSculpting® Elite introduces several key improvements:
Dual Applicators: CoolSculpting® Elite’s design allows two areas to be treated simultaneously, making it more time-efficient than the original.
Applicator Shape: The applicators in the Elite system are redesigned with a C-shape to provide better contact with the skin, improving comfort and enhancing fat reduction.
Treatment Coverage: CoolSculpting® Elite can cover up to 18% more surface area per session, making it ideal for targeting larger or multiple treatment zones.
Enhanced Results: Thanks to its updated technology, CoolSculpting® Elite delivers a more comprehensive fat reduction in fewer treatments.
How Many CoolSculpting® Elite Treatments Will I Need?
The number of sessions required depends on your individual goals and the areas being treated. Many patients see significant results after just one or two sessions per area. During your consultation at Krauss Dermatology, a personalized treatment plan will be created to address your specific needs.
Individuals who maintain a consistent weight over time will usually not need additional treatments. However, significant changes in weight can affect your results, so a healthy lifestyle is recommended to maintain your sculpted shape.
Am I a Good Candidate for CoolSculpting® Elite Treatments?
CoolSculpting® Elite is an excellent choice for individuals close to their target weight who struggle with localized fat deposits. It’s ideal for treating areas like the abdomen, thighs, flanks, and under the chin. However, it’s not a weight-loss solution and may not be suitable for individuals with certain medical conditions including Raynaud’s Disease (sensitivity to cold). A consultation with a Krauss Dermatology professional will help determine if CoolSculpting® Elite is right for you.
