CoolSculpting uses cryolipolysis technology to freeze stubborn pockets of diet and exercise resistant fat, which your body will naturally eliminate in 1-3 months resulting in up to 20% or more fat reduction in the treated areas. Including all body areas and the chin.

FDA-cleared, nonsurgical & clinically proven for safety and effectiveness.

CoolSculpting Elite vs. Original CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting Elite is the latest and greatest version of the CoolSculpting body contouring experience. The new C-shape cup applicators allow for more tissue contact, which provides a more even cooling result and improved patient comfort. Each device can treat 2 areas at a time, to expedite treatments. CCSD has two Elite devices to treat up to four areas in a single session for faster appointments. The elite applicators have not been shown to cause PAH, and extremely rare adverse effect of cryolypolisis. CCSD uses only Elite devices.

The Science of CoolSculpting

Freezing away of fat comes down to science. Because fat is more sensitive to cold than other surrounding tissue, lipids in fat crystalize at a warmer temperature than water in other cell types. CoolSculpting Elite safely delivers controlled cooling (cryolipolysis) to gently and effectively target fat cells underneath skin in the selected area. After treatment, the body will naturally eliminate the fat cells in 1-3 months resulting in up to 20% or more reduction of stubborn fat.

What is a CoolSculpting Elite Treatment Like?

It’s easy to sit back, relax and say goodbye to stubborn fat! During your procedure, you may choose to read, check email, or even take a nap. We follow CoolSculpting Elite treatments with our Slimspec radial pulse device, which creates measured shock waves to penetrate the treatment area and break down frozen fat cells, helping your body metabolize them more efficiently (which equals better results).

Treatment times are quick, varying up to 45 minutes depending on the applicator used and area(s) being treated. When used in conjunction with Alastin TransFORM Body Treatment cream, our patients experience a quicker recovery time and increased fat reduction than with CoolSculpting Elite alone.

Frequently Asked Question

Do I need a consultation?: Patients new to CoolSculpting will need to be seen by our clinical providers, Whitney Conen PA-C, Nirali Shah PA, Brittany Rank PA-C, or Caroline Sheppard, PA-C for an initial consultation to see if CoolSculpting is right for you. They will also review pre and post treatment information and how to get the best results from your treatment!
Will Coolsculpting work for me?: An initial consultation is essential to knowing if you are a good candidate for CoolSculpting. Typically this treatment is better for anyone maintaining an ideal weight, struggling with small or stubborn pockets of fat that diet and exercise do not improve.
How many treatments will I need?: While a single CoolSculpting treatment provides a noticeable and measurable fat reduction, we recommend for best results 2-3 treatments to the same area spaced one month apart. This will depend on the areas being treated and will be discussed with you at your initial consultation.
What does CoolSculpting feel like?: As the cooling begins during the first few minutes, you will feel light pressure and intense cold. This soon dissipates. Many people read, watch videos, work on their laptop, or even take a nap during their treatment. The new CoolSculpting Elite C cup design, allows for gentler suction and more even cooling for an even more comfortable treatment!

Treatment times can vary from 35, 45 or 75 minutes depending on the applicator used and area(s) being treated.
How long until I notice results?: You will gradually notice reduced fat in the treated area in 1-3 months after getting CoolSculpting.
Are there any side effects?: There is no downtime with CoolSculpting, however you may experience tingling or a stinging sensation for 5+ minutes immediately after the procedure. Mild redness in the treated area, lasting for a few minutes to a few hours, is an expected but temporary effect of the CoolSculpting procedure. The area may have a numb sensation prior to treatment, but this can vary from patient to patient.
