CoolSculpting® vs CoolSculpting® Elite: What are the Differences?

You may have already heard of CoolSculpting®, the world’s most popular body contouring treatment. Have you heard of the newer, more advanced CoolSculpting® Elite? This system uses innovative technology to improve on the original and bring you a better, more effective CoolSculpting® experience. 

What is CoolSculpting®?

CoolSculpting® is a non-invasive treatment for body contouring. It targets your most challenging areas of stubborn fat to help you achieve a more sculpted figure. It is equally effective for men and women. Fat cells are more sensitive to cold than skin or other cells, so CoolSculpting® selectively damages fat cells by freezing them. Your lymphatic system filters these damaged fat cells away. 

CoolSculpting® vs. CoolSculpting® Elite: What are the Differences?

Dr. Rapaport and your Coolspa team specialize in performing this treatment using CoolSculpting® Elite. This more advanced system has added several advantages over older technology.  As one of the earliest to adopt CoolSculpting® Elite, the Coolspa team has more experience with it than almost any other medical provider. 

Two Applicators

While legacy CoolSculpting® systems had one applicator, CoolSculpting® Elite has two. This allows your provider to treat two areas at the same time. It also allows the combination of two systems to treat four areas simultaneously, a process called Quad Sculpting. 

More Coverage

CoolSculpting® Elite covers more area with each applicator to treat your problem spots more efficiently. It treats 18% more surface area than the original CoolSculpting®. As a result, you can treat more stubborn fat with each session. 

More Fat Removal

CoolSculpting® Elite is remarkably effective at removing fat without downtime. It has been shown to reduce fat in the treated area by an average of 25%. Repeated treatments can remove even more fat until you achieve your desired results. 

New Applicators

CoolSculpting® Elite offers seven redesigned applicators to fit more closely and work more efficiently on different areas of the body. They work on small areas such as under the chin, large ones like the abdomen, or anything in between. 

Even More Comfortable

Its redesigned applicators make CoolSculpting® Elite even more comfortable than ordinary CoolSculpting®. The section of the CoolSculpting® Elite applicators is one feature that makes this treatment more comfortable than the original CoolSculpting device.

What Results Will I See With CoolSculpting® Elite?

CoolSculpting® Elite results start to develop after a few weeks. They will continue to develop for about three months. While other non-invasive technologies may shrink your fat cells, instead of eliminating them, the results are not permanent. Since CoolSculpting® eliminates fat cells from the body, they will not grow back, and therefore your results should last a lifetime if you maintain a stable weight. For many people, CoolSculpting® Elite is the boost they need to keep working on a healthier lifestyle. 

Am I a Good Candidate for CoolSculpting® Elite?

Good candidates for CoolSculpting® Elite want to target their problem areas and achieve their goals. Ideal candidates are close to their goal weight but struggle with bulges or resistant pockets of fat. CoolSculpting® treatments are intended for body sculpting, not weight loss, but they can give you a slimmer appearance.
