CoolSculpting Elite is fat-freezing technology that gives long-term results that make stubborn fat less troubling.
Fat cells don’t like the cold and at a certain temperature, they will freeze.
Once that happens, your body will naturally eliminate the dead cells in 2-6 months or more.
Resulting in up to 20%-25% reduction of fat in a treated area.
Problem areas
What to expect during CoolSculpting Elite
CoolSculpting Elite is a non-surgical procedure that may take from one to several hours, depending on you treatment plan
No general/topical anesthesia or pain medication required
As the procedure is initiated, vacuum pressure draws tissue into an applicator cup between cooling panels

You also may experience intense stinging, tingling, aching or cramping
These sensations generally subside as the area becomes numb
What to expect immediately after CoolSculpting Elite
Immediately after the procedure, your treated area may look or feel stiff and transient blanching (temporary whitening of the skin) may occur
You may feel a sense of nausea or dizziness as your body naturally warms and sensation returns to your treatment area. These are normal reactions that typically resolve within minutes
The treated area may be red for up to a few hours after the applicator is removed. This is an expected but temporary effect after CoolSculpting Elite
Bruising, swelling, and tenderness can occur in the treated area. This typically resolves within a week or two
