The next generation of body contouring is here. Introducing CoolSculpting® Elite by Allergan, the newest iteration of noninvasive fat reduction technology that targets, freezes, and eliminates stubborn fat in nine areas of the body safely, effectively, and in less time than traditional CoolSculpting treatments. Belladerm MedSpa is proud to be the first provider in Minnesota and tri-state area to offer this groundbreaking service. Read our blog as we discuss CoolSculpting Elite and how every “body” can benefit.

What is CoolSculpting Elite?

Building on the revolutionary technology of the original CoolSculpting, Elite’s innovative C-shaped dual applicators include seven different shapes and sizes that complement the body’s natural curves, improving fit and comfort. It’s the only FDA-cleared treatment to elimate stubborn fat in nine different areas of the body including:

• Chin and jawline area
• Inner thighs
• Outer thighs
• Abdomen
• Love handles or flanks
• Bra rolls (front and back)
• Banana roll (underneath the buttocks)
• Arms

Patients can experience up to 20-25 percent fat reduction in treated areas with visible results as early as one to three months after treatment. CoolSculpting Elite offers the ability to treat twice the amount of fat in the same amount of time compared to using the original applicator. And there’s no downtime or recovery period.

Is CoolSculpting Elite better than the original CoolSculpting?

The design of the new C cup applicators allows for more tissue contact, as well as more suction and cooling result. This means faster treatment times as two areas can be treated at once. For example, you can treat the abdomen and flanks or under the arms. Or treat the chin and any other body part at once.

Who is a good candidate for treatment?

CoolSculpting Elite is for men and women of all body types, who are at or near their ideal body weight but struggle with stubborn fat areas despite diet and exercise. While it’s an effective and safe way to elimate fat cells, the treatment is not for weight loss. If you’re unsure whether you’re a good candidate, contact a Belladerm CoolSculpting professional for a free consultation.

How long does each session take?

That depends on the treatment area(s), as well as the number, type, and size of applicator used. Plan anywhere between 45 minutes to two hours per session. The optimal number of sessions varies from patient to patient and can only be determined during an in-person consultation with a trained Belladerm professional.

Are you having trouble with stubborn pockets of fat regardless of a healthy diet and regular exercise? You’re not alone. More and more people are turning to CoolSculpting, a non-invasive, body contouring procedure for both men and women that eliminates fat from the stomach, thighs, back, and arms without traditional surgery or liposuction. Read our blog to find out if CoolSculpting is right for you.

What is CoolSculpting?

Coolsculpting uses a safe, controlled cooling method to target and eliminate unwanted fat. During the procedure, the cooling method causes lipids to crystallize. Then they are gently removed through the body’s normal metabolic processes. Common treatment areas include:

• Back
• Love handles, muffin tops, or flanks
• Outer thigh fat
• Hip fat or saddle bags
• Belly fat
• Upper arm fat
• Chin fat

CoolSculpting is not intended for weight loss or as a treatment for obesity. In fact, many patients who opt for this procedure are extremely fit and healthy. Moreover, we recommend consulting with a trained CoolSculpting provider to evaluate areas of concern and discuss desired outcomes.

Who is a Good Candidate?

There are several factors used to determine who is a good candidate for CoolSculpting. In general, if you are in good health and not pregnant, most likely you are a good candidate. However, the procedure is not for individuals with a BMI (body mass index) of 34 or more. For those who are within 5 to 20 lbs. of their ideal weight, evaluating the tightness of fat in areas of concern is a determining factor as well. If you can pinch and pull the fat away from your body, you may be a good candidate.

What You Can Expect at the Appointment?

A typical appointment lasts anywhere from 45 minutes to four hours, depending on the parts of the body being treated. The area will be cold but not too uncomfortable. Patients can watch television, read, or listen to music as the provider performs the procedure. Results usually are noticeable after a few weeks and are long-lasting. Most patients opt for two to three treatments to achieve their desired reduction goals. There’s no downtime and post-procedure care is simple. As a result, the majority of patients are able to return to their daily routine immediately.

Any Side Effects?

CoolSculpting is safe, effective, and relatively simple. Some side effects include redness, bruising, or swelling but usually subside quickly. Some patients experience tingling, stinging, aching, or cramping but this will subside over time.

The trusted experts at Belladerm MedSpa can customize a treatment plan according to your needs, beauty goals, and budget. Contact us to schedule your FREE consultation and find out more about CoolSculpting.

CoolSculpting is the latest craze for body contouring and Belladerm is hosting a special event this month!  You no longer have to put up with that stubborn fat that no amount of workouts will get rid of! The buzz over this relatively new treatment has been increasing every month. Information is rapidly being shared and CoolSculpting rave reviews are splashed all over in various forms of media right now. Why are people so excited about it?
CoolSculpting provides stellar results without going under the knife. Instead, the fat cells are frozen and your body eliminates the destroyed cells over the course of several weeks. CoolSculpting works by pulling the skin between two panels, so you’ll likely feel a mild tingling or slight tugging of the skin, along with a cooling sensation. Any discomfort should be minimal. You can rest assured knowing that it is FDA-cleared and was developed by Harvard scientists using patented fat-freezing technology.
Are you a candidate? CoolSculpting is a good choice for individuals who are within 15 to 20 pounds of their ideal weight and who already exercise and follow a healthy diet.
