If you’ve been hitting the gym, eating well, and still dealing with stubborn pockets of fat, you may be an ideal candidate for CoolSculpting Elite. This popular treatment for fat freezing in Southlake, TX, offers a nonsurgical way to contour your body and reduce problem areas for good. But is it right for you?
Let’s break down what makes someone a great fit for CoolSculpting Elite at Southlake Plastic Surgery & Med Spa.
The Ideal CoolSculpting Elite Candidate
CoolSculpting Elite offers nonsurgical fat reduction to individuals close to their goal weight who are still struggling with localized pockets of fat that resist diet and exercise. Think love handles, a lower belly “pooch,” thigh bulges, or a double chin. These are areas where fat tends to accumulate, even when the rest of your body is lean.
You might be a great candidate if:
- You’re looking for body contouring, not weight loss
- You want a noninvasive solution with no downtime
- You’re within 10 to 30 pounds of your ideal weight
- You live a healthy, active lifestyle
Who It’s Not Right For
CoolSculpting Elite is not a weight loss solution. If you’re looking to shed a significant amount of weight, you may benefit from other options first. It’s also not suitable for individuals with certain cold-related conditions (like cryoglobulinemia) or who are pregnant.
What to Expect From Treatment
CoolSculpting Elite treatments take 35 to 75 minutes per area, so they’re much quicker than surgical options. They are also more comfortable and come with little to no recovery time. Over the weeks following your session, your body naturally flushes out the frozen fat cells, revealing a more sculpted silhouette.
Additionally, if you have poor skin health or elasticity, we recommend medical-grade skin care and Sofwave treatments to help restore its firmness post-weight loss.
