CoolSculpting and Bodytite are two of the more popular body contouring procedures today for people who want to lose fat without surgery. While both treatments will create fat reduction, the technique involved in each procedure is different. 

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides safe and proven body sculpting treatments to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles CA, and surrounding locations.

CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting procedure is designed to freeze the fat off, and restore more youthful and slimmer contours in the treated areas. Stubborn fat pockets in areas such as the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, flanks, breasts, upper arms and calves can be effectively treated with CoolSculpting.

The provider will use the FDA cleared CoolSculpting device over the targeted areas and expose them to controlled cold temperatures. The cooling process will destroy the fat cells, which will eventually exit from the body through the natural metabolic way.

CoolSculpting is ideal for people who have stable and moderate body weight, but are struggling with unsightly fat bulges in certain areas. Unlike most other body contouring procedures and surgery, CoolSculpting is a more conservative and safe way to reduce fat tissue. The procedure involves no cuts, incisions, needles, heating, or cellular extraction. 

Bodytite

Bodytite is a unique process that harnesses thermal energy produced by radio frequency technique to eliminate unwanted fat deposits from targeted areas. Results with Bodytite can often be as good as liposuction surgery, but without the potential risks, discomfort and downtime that is usually associated with surgery. 

Bodytite will also not leave any conspicuous scarring, while creating highly desirable body contouring results. The device is powered by Radio Frequency Assisted Lipolysis (RFAL) which performs a 3D remodeling of the affected sites. Bodytite is more suited for removing stubborn fats in areas such as the thighs, love handles and abdomen, where the fat tissue is often harder to treat.

Bodytite works on the liposuction surgery principle, but makes use of radio frequency (RF) energy to melt the fat. Once the fat cells are loosened and melted, the provider can easily remove it with a thin cannula. This ensures that the patient will experience minimal tissue trauma and reduced post-treatment inflammation, discomfort and downtime. 

In addition to fat reduction, Bodytite procedure also works to tighten the loose skin and tissue in the treated areas. Controlled RF heat exposure in these areas will create tightening of the tissue from within. Results are more uniform looking because a larger surface area can be treated at one time. 

Which Treatment is Better?

Both CoolSculpting and Bodytite offer their own advantages, and patients can choose the more appropriate procedure according to their personal aesthetic goals and body condition. The treatment provider will help the patient determine the right choice for them. 

In general, Bodytite could be more suitable where the patient needs both fat reduction and toning up of the loose skin, while being willing to undergo a relatively more intensive treatment. CoolSculpting, on the other hand, is an excellent choice for patients seeking fat reduction in a completely non-invasive manner.

Does Coolsculpting work? 

CoolSculpting is an FDA-cleared form of cosmetic reduction of the excess fat. The process is clinically called cryolipolysis. This procedure uses freezing temperatures to break down fat cells and freeze the fat off. Studies have shown that cold causes damage only to the fat cells at first. Therefore there is absolutely no damage to the underlying tissue or the skin.  

During this procedure, the provider vacuums the skin above the area of fatty tissue into an applicator that cools the fat cells. The cold temperatures numb the area, and you may feel a mild cooling sensation.  

Most CoolSculpting procedures are completed within an hour. Since there is no damage to the skin or the underlying tissue, the patients do not require any recovery time. After the completion of the procedure, it takes around four to six months for the fat cells to get expelled from the body. During this period, you will lose fat significantly (patients on average lose about 20 percent of the fat.)  

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides CoolSculpting to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles CA, and surrounding communities.  

Is CoolSculpting Effective? 

Cryolipolysis has a very high rate of success. It is highly effective for eliminating areas of fat from the body, and has much lesser side effects in comparison to other procedures, such as liposuction. Although Coolsculpting can eliminate areas of fat, it is important to understand that it is not a miracle cure, and you will not lose a very large amount of fat. 

This fat reduction procedure might not be suitable for everybody, and some people may have more side effects than others. Lifestyle and several other factors also play a vital role.  

Furthermore, you cannot expect much fat loss while undergoing Coolsculpting if you continue to eat an unhealthy diet and have a sedentary lifestyle. This procedure cannot tighten your loose skin. If the skin has stretched around fatty buildups, you may have excess skin left after the fat is eliminated. 

What does the Research say? 

Researchers consider CoolSculpting to be a relatively effective and safe treatment for eliminating some areas of fat.  

A review published in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery in 2015 examined 19 previous studies of cryolipolysis. This study revealed that when fat reduction was measured with a caliper, a tool similar to a ruler, people lost an average of 14.67 to 28.5 percent of the fat in areas treated by Coolsculpting. When the studies measured the fat reduction with ultrasound, people experienced a weight loss of approximately 10.3 percent to 25.5 percent. 

The researchers did not find any kind of major health risk factors related to this procedure. There was no reduction in the function of the liver or lipid levels. This implies that cryolipolysis is only a cosmetic procedure. Besides, freezing away fat without making any changes to the lifestyle may not improve the overall health of any person. 

 Another 2015 review reported in the journal of Aesthetic Surgery looked at 16 studies and found that people had an average fat reduction of 19.55 percent. Massaging the area straightaway after treatment may increase fat reduction, though more research is required to support this belief. A study conducted in 2014 found an increase in fat reduction following massage 2 months after treatment.  

How long do the Results of CoolSculpting last? 

This procedure destroys your fat cells, and those particular cells will not return. However, killing the existing fat cells will not stop the new fat cells from appearing. Therefore, it is critical to maintain a healthy lifestyle to preserve the results of the CoolSculpting procedure.  

A person who eats an unhealthy diet and does not practice any form of exercise might soon see the growth of remaining fat cells in the body. Cosmetic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles CA, and nearby areas for CoolSculpting.

CoolSculpting is the most popular non-invasive fat-reduction procedure around the world. Consider giving yourself the gift of CoolSculpting as the holidays approach. 

This advanced treatment can effectively freeze the fat to eliminate it from the waistline, stomach, and thighs in a non-surgical manner and without any involving any incisions, needles, medications, or anesthesia. 

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides CoolSculpting to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding locations.

The CoolSculpting Basics

CoolSculpting has received FDA clearance for eliminating undesirable fat using a targeted cooling process. This removes the stubborn fat that is resistant to even the most aggressive exercise and balanced diet plan. 

As cold can address fat cells without causing damage to the skin or adjacent tissue, it works powerfully via CoolSculpting to crystallize unwanted fat cells. The body naturally processes the crystallized fat over time, removes all dead fat cells, and helps create a slimmer and more contoured body shape. 

What are the Outcomes?

While the results of many cosmetic procedures are temporary, CoolSculpting offers long-term outcomes as the treated fat cells are removed permanently. As long as the patient continues to follow a healthy lifestyle, they can enjoy the results for a long time. 

CoolSculpting is the most effective way to lose fat when it is used to treat fat on the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, flanks, upper arm, and around the bra region. Over a period of two to three weeks, the body will simply process out the dead fat cells, and the patient will slowly notice that their body appears sleeker and more sculpted!

CoolSculpting has become a highly trustworthy name in the cosmetic world as it offers outcomes with remarkable reliability. Over 5,500 clinical trials have been cautiously studies, and more than 5,000,000 CoolSculpting procedures have been undertaken globally. Hollywood celebrities have come out in large numbers to share their success stories with this procedure!

CoolSculpting Is Based in Science

CoolSculpting will enhance the appearance of the body using an innovative scientific process. This treatment delivers controlled cooling to effectively and delicately target the fat cells beneath the skin. Upon being treated, the fat cells freeze and die. 

Over the period of a few months, the body will naturally process and eliminate those dead fat cells, leaving the body slimmer and more contoured. This process involving controlled cooling can successfully eliminate fat that does not respond to other approaches to removal.

Painless, Non-invasive Procedure

CoolSculpting offers a painless, simple, and non-invasive way to remove undesirable fat, unlike liposuction and other treatments for fat removal. It is no surprise that CoolSculpting is the leading non-invasive fat-reduction procedure in the world, with over four million treatments undertaken across the world. 

The treatment is so simple that the patient can read, check email, listen to music, or even nap during the procedure. They will also be able to resume their routine activities immediately after the treatment. 

Identify Your Problem Areas

The flanks, chest, stomach, lower back, upper back, outer thighs, inner thighs, and knees are common sites to be treated with CoolSculpting. Due to its impressive versatility, CoolSculpting can remove fat from a number of locations on the body. No more love handles, no more muffin top, no more double chin!

The thighs and buttocks are two areas on the body where fat tends to accumulate the most. This not only makes clothing fit uncomfortably but may also lead to embarrassment. 

For people struggling with “thunder thighs” or too much “junk in the trunk,” CoolSculpting offers a proven treatment option to lose fat without surgery. 

CoolSculpting is an FDA-cleared procedure that does not involve the use of needles, chemicals, or anesthesia. Rather, it comprises a gel pad and applicator placed on the precise part of the body through which controlled cooling freezes and eliminates fat cells. As it reaches just underneath the skin’s surface, rather than deep organs, it is completely safe. 

This procedure has a high rate of success, even when addressing other areas of the body, including the banana roll zone. The patient will start to notice a significant improvement with a single 35 to 60-minute treatment, which will only improve with time.

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides CoolSculpting body contouring procedure to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles CA, and surrounding communities.

Can It Help Improve My Banana Roll Zone?

For people unfamiliar with the term “banana roll,” this refers to the buttocks and thighs, both sites tend to store fat. The banana roll is quite common, especially on women.

During a consultation for CoolSculpting, there is a possibility that the doctor will stress the importance of exercise and a balanced diet in relation to this unique freeze-the-fat treatment option. 

Positive lifestyle changes can have a dramatic impact on the thighs and buttocks. The doctor can target those two areas with CoolSculpting, making a dramatic difference in how a person appears, and ultimately, feels. While the patient may notice some changes, they will see the complete effects of this innovative fat-reducing treatment in around two months. 

Can CoolSculpting, improve the banana roll zone? The answer is a resounding yes. The patient may accomplish their goals with a single treatment, but if necessary, the doctor can undertake several.

CoolSculpting vs. Liposuction for the Buttocks

To eliminate fat from the banana roll area, CoolSculpting is more effective than liposuction. The reason is that eliminating fat from this area of the body with liposuction is challenging. 

Loose skin can develop after the surgery, even when the procedure is undertaken by an experienced surgeon. This issue seldom occurs with CoolSculpting. In fact, as a more gradual technique for fat cell removal, it helps preserve some of the connective tissue in the treated site. 

Are There Side Effects of Treating the Buttocks?

The patient may experience a few side effects when using CoolSculpting, to eliminate undesirable fat in the buttocks and thighs. 

The side-effects of this treatment are not only minimal, but they are also short lasting. The more common complaints include tugging, pinching, slight bruising, redness, inflammation, stinging, and sensitivity to touch. But any side effects are not enough to keep the patient down. 

To eliminate fat from the banana roll area of the body, this holistic treatment, known as CoolSculpting, is ideal. Cosmetic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles CA, and nearby areas for CoolSculpting body contouring procedure.

CoolSculpting refers to a non-invasive fat reduction procedure that involves freezing and destroying fat cells using controlled cooling technology. The dead fat cells are naturally eliminated from the body through the lymphatic system.

CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared for use on nine distinct treatment areas, including the chin, flanks (love handles), abdomen, inner and outer thighs, upper arms, and chin. 

Over the years, CoolSculpting has emerged as the treatment of choice for many people who want to lose fat without surgery.

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides CoolSculpting body contouring procedure to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles CA, and surrounding communities. 

How Does CoolSculpting Work on the Arms?

The unique contours of the upper arm undergo treatment using a specially designed CoolSculpting applicator. Different-sized applicator plates are used, depending on the size of the area being addressed. 

The CoolSculpting applicator delivers suction and controlled cooling to the treatment site with an aim to freeze the fat off. The most appropriate temperature for fat cell death (apoptosis) is between 39 and 41 degrees Fahrenheit. 

The subcutaneous layer of fat in the upper arm is cooled to the point that fat cells start to die. The surrounding skin, nerves, and muscles remain unharmed by the CoolSculpting procedure. 

How Many Treatments are Necessary?

A majority of patients need between one to three CoolSculpting treatments for optimal outcomes. The number of treatments necessary will depend on the individual’s response to the procedure. It will also depend on the extent of improvement that the patient hopes to accomplish.

Are You an Ideal Candidate for CoolSculpting on the Arms?

CoolSculpting for the arms offers optimal outcomes for patients with relatively taut, toned skin.

This procedure is not appropriate for people:

• Are impacted by cold-induced medical issues such as cold urticaria, cryoglobulinemia, or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria.
• Have a high amount of adipose (fatty) tissue. These patients may be suitable candidates for liposuction or an arm lift.  
• Have major skin laxity in the upper arms.

In addition, CoolSculpting is a suitable procedure for patients who are at, or close to their ideal weight. 

What to Expect During Treatment?

Prior to the treatment, the doctor will determine the number of applicators that will be required. Certain patients only need one large applicator. Yet others may require two small applicators. The provider then applies a gel pad and the applicator(s) to the arms.

Post-treatment massage can enhance the outcomes of CoolSculpting treatment by breaking down any frozen deep tissue.

Research Study on CoolSculpting for the Arms

Patients report an improved definition in their arms as well as a more proportionate appearance. According to a recent study, patients who received CoolSculpting on their arms accomplished a 15.3 percent reduction of subcutaneous fat after one treatment session.

Patients reported noticing up to a 25 percent reduction in the treatment area according to a 2015 clinical study of CoolSculpting treatments on the arms and inner thighs. 76.5 percent of the participants reported that they were satisfied with their outcomes after a three-month check-up. Patient satisfaction declines after a six-month duration, but this drop was linked to weight gain.  

Takeaway

CoolSculpting can help eliminate stubborn fatty pockets in the upper arms for patients who are at or very close to their optimal weight. 

A majority of people need between one to three CoolSculpting treatments to enjoy optimal outcomes. The patient can achieve up to 25 percent fat reduction in their arms after two or more CoolSculpting procedures.

CoolSculpting is an FDA-cleared non-surgical fat reduction treatment. It is the only procedure that uses controlled cooling to eliminate stubborn fat that simply cannot be removed by a balanced diet and regular exercise.

People who have heard or read about CoolSculpting may be familiar with its potential to reduce the number of fat cells on the love handles, abdomen, and other areas for women. However, CoolSculpting may also be a suitable treatment to help a man lose fat on the chest.

Pseudo-gynecomastia is a common condition which is characterized by excess male breast tissue. It can be a source of self-consciousness or embarrassment in men of all ages. 

This is usually a normal phenomenon, but pseudo-gynecomastia can negatively impact the quality of life for males, making them feel self-conscious about removing their shirts when swimming, at the beach, or during sexual activity. 

The treatment of pseudo-gynecomastia can improve the self-esteem and body image in men ranging from their teenage years, through their 60s, and sometimes even later. 

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides CoolSculpting body contouring procedure to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles CA, and surrounding locations.

The Use of CoolSculpting on Male Chest

Women are not the only ones who suffer from undesirable fatty deposits. Therefore, CoolSculpting is not meant for use on the female body only. Even men who are used to hiding under layers of baggy clothing and have been considering male breast reduction may want to evaluate CoolSculpting closely. 

CoolSculpting is a non-surgical and non-invasive procedure. The CoolSculpting provider may be able to use the innovative freeze-the-fat technology to eliminate stubborn fat tissue in the male chest without any downtime. 

While the most common treatment areas tend to be the love handles, tummy, and thighs, some specialists use CoolSculpting for male breast reduction. This is a non-label use as there is presently no CoolSculpting applicator meant specifically for the treatment of fat in the male chest area. 

Research Study Results

Researchers assessed ten men with pseudogynecomastia to understand whether non-surgical fat reduction through cryolipolysis (CoolSculpting) is a safe and successful option. These researchers were testing to determine if fatty tissue only on the chest area could be addressed with CoolSculpting to create an appealing outcome. 

Following two sessions of CoolSculpting spaced six weeks apart, the seven participants who completed the study experienced a visible reduction in fatty tissue thickness in the chest region treated with CoolSculpting in comparison to the untreated side of the chest. 

In relation to this, the authors of the study reported that adverse events were transient and mild. CoolSculpting did seem to be safe as well as effective in reducing male chest fat in moderate amounts. 

Am I a Candidate for CoolSculpting?

The only way for a person to establish their candidacy is to book an initial consultation with a qualified CoolSculpting expert. In this meeting, the CoolSculpting specialist will discuss the patient’s eligibility for this treatment and the outcomes that they are likely to achieve. 

The candidacy and potential outcomes differ between people, whether they are receiving treatment for the male chest, female love handles, or any other area. 

About CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting is not designed to be an alternative to traditional weight loss techniques of consuming a balanced diet and exercising regularly. However, the procedure can effectively tone the areas of the body that have been unresponsive to diet and exercise. 

The below mentioned highlights indicate why CoolSculpting is so popular:

• One hour sessions requiring no anesthesia
• Up to 25 percent fat reduction 
• Treats the love handles, abdomen, back, thighs, and other regions of the body
• Pain-free treatment
• No scarring
• No recovery
• Natural looking results over the course of two to four months

The inner thighs are a body part that is notoriously challenging to shape and sculpt. Some people can practice inner thigh lifts until they are red in the face. However, in reality, the inner thigh shape is determined by genetics. 

How and where the body stores fat is a hereditary factor that is primarily beyond an individual’s control. For most women, the much-coveted “thigh gap” usually seen on models gracing covers and runways is unrealistic. 

For women and men who are healthy, fit, and within their ideal weight range, there are some transformative non-invasive procedures that can sculpt the inner thigh region without the need to undergo cosmetic surgery. Among these procedures, CoolSculpting is the most popular, FDA-cleared fat melting technique to help you lose fat in the thigh area. 

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides CoolSculpting body contouring procedure to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles CA, and surrounding locations.

CoolSculpting History

There is no doubt that CoolSculpting by Zeltiq is the most sought-after and transformative non-surgical procedure. The FDA initially cleared CoolSculpting for the elimination of fat pockets around the flanks (love handles) in 2010. Later in 2014, CoolSculpting was cleared by the FDA for the reduction of fat in the inner and outer thigh areas. 

CoolSculpting enjoyed almost immediate success as it presented a unique freeze-the-fat alternative to liposuction. 

According to clinical studies, this procedure reduced subcutaneous fat by up to 25 percent after a single treatment. Nearly 86 percent of the participants experienced an improvement in the treated site. 

Benefits of CoolSculpting for Thigh Fat Reduction

• The CoolFit Advantage vacuum applicator enables the use of the device on the inner thighs.
• A CoolSculpting procedure can be undertaken during the patient’s lunch break with no downtime. This is ideal for patients who want quick, non-invasive cosmetic procedure that creates real outcomes without extended recovery periods. 
• The average person loses 25 percent of their inner thigh fat after a single session.
• There is no risk of post-treatment issues with skin laxity as the fat reduction is slow, enabling the skin to retract
• The CoolSculpting system is ideal for the treatment of smaller and more defined regions of fat accumulation around the inner thighs.

Outcomes of a Research Study

CoolSculpting is especially appropriate for inner thigh sculpting. According to one study, 45 participants between the ages of 18 and 65 received one 60-minute CoolSculpting treatment session for inner thighs, with the following results:

• 93 percent of patients were content with the treatment.
• 91 percent were likely to receive another treatment after the first.
• 89 percent would inform a friend about undergoing inner thigh cryolipolysis.
• 84 percent were happy with the outcome correlated with the less fat on their inner thighs after a single treatment session.

What to Expect After CoolSculpting of the Inner Thighs

CoolSculpting involves little to no recovery time. A majority of people can return to their normal activities right after the procedure. Sometimes there may be minor soreness or redness in the inner thighs. However, that will usually resolve within a few weeks.

The outcomes in the treated sites may be visible within three weeks of the procedure. Patients typically achieve optimal outcomes after two to three months, and the fat-flushing process goes on for up to six months after the initial treatment session. 

Around 79 percent of people reported a positive difference in the manner that their clothes fit after CoolSculpting, according to CoolSculpting market research. 

CoolSculpting is not meant to treat obesity and should not replace a healthy lifestyle. To maintain optimal results, it is important to consume a healthy diet and follow a regular exercise plan.

Cryolipolysis refers to the scientific name for freezing fat. This process causes fat cells to crystallize, and these cells are then eliminated through the body’s natural metabolic processes. Most people know this treatment by its more popular name, Coolsculpting. 

This procedure is also recognized as a fit and healthy individual’s secret to eliminating stubborn back fat. Women, specifically have sought this procedure to remove a version of back fat called “bra bulge.” Patients can lose fat without undergoing any cuts, incisions or injections.

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides CoolSculpting to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding locations.

Where does back fat come from?

Tummy fat and love handles are target areas that are always visible in the mirror. However, back fat is more elusive. 

Three main groups of muscle known as the extensor, flexor and oblique, overlap or intersect to develop the human back. Those muscles and the skin begin to sag over time, creating pockets that fill with fat.  

Previously, liposuction was the only technique to eliminate these bulges. This surgical procedure can with a certain level of risk. The adjacent tissue or muscle could become damaged or scarred. This would obviously run contrary to the premise of plastic surgery. 

This issue created the need for an innovative and revolutionary procedure such as CoolSculpting. This treatment does not damage the surrounding tissue as only the fat is treated. There is no surgery, and CoolSculpting is a non-invasive treatment with minimal possibility of scarring. 

A well-qualified technician simply applies a hand-piece to the skin which sucks only fat into the device and freezes the fat cells off. 

How many treatments will it take?

Larger body areas, such as the back, usually require multiple treatments. There is no requirement for anesthesia, and the procedure does not involve any downtime. 

The treatment could be completed in just one session with a larger-sized applicator, and the patient can resume their routine right after the procedure. 

Fat in the upper back area may create bra bulge, which may be a woman’s concern. However, men are also equally likely to benefit from CoolSculpting. They too have backs with undesirable fat. 

How Long Does It Take to See the Effects on Bra Fat?

The patient will notice visible improvements within a few days of their CoolSculpting session. But after a few weeks or months, the outcomes will improve even further. This controlled cooling technique will initially kill the fat cells. 

However, to prevent the body from undergoing stress, more cells continue to die over time. The body then processes these annihilated cells and flushes them out through the liver and stools. Therefore, patients can expect to see the full outcomes of the procedure within around two months.

How Long Does it Take to Treat the Breast?

One treatment session will take between 35 to 60 minutes to complete, as with other body areas such as the upper arms, thighs, abdomen, and so on. Depending on the patient’s aesthetic goals, they may choose to undergo more than one procedure, which will require the same amount of time. 

The patient can read a book, listen to music, text, or email on their phone, or even enjoy a short nap during their CoolSculpting treatment. Cosmetic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, CA, and nearby areas for CoolSculpting.

CoolSculpting offers an innovative, non-surgical med spa solution to people seeking to lose fat deposits in specific areas of their body. 

How does CoolSculpting remove undesirable fat? Well, simply by freezing it! The CoolSculpting applicator freezes the fat causing the fat cells to die off over the next three to six months. 

To date, over two million CoolSculpting treatments have been performed worldwide. Increasingly, more Americans are not only evaluating the procedure, but also booking appointments to undergo it. 

Motykie Medical Spa, led by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie, provides CoolSculpting for double chin reduction to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding locations.

The CoolSculpting CoolMini Applicator: Highlights

The CoolMini applicator is a recent addition in the CoolSculpting family. This applicator helps remove fat underneath the chin to help eliminate the appearance of a double chin. 

Patients typically require just one to two treatment sessions to see results. This non-surgical procedure does not involve the use of needles and has no associated downtime. 

A clinical study using the new CoolMini applicator reports that 83 percent of patients were satisfied with their results. In addition, eight out of ten patients stated that they would recommend the procedure to others who are looking to lose fat in difficult-to-reach areas such as under the chin.  

Uniquely Designed for Submental Area

Traditional non-invasive treatments and CoolSculpting may not be very effective in eliminating fat in the hard to reach the submental region beneath the chin. 

Zeltiq, the company that owns the CoolSculpting technology, designed the CoolMini applicator to overcome this issue. CoolMini is specially designed to freeze the fat deposits underneath the chin with its special size, shape, and curvature. 

The CoolMini procedure is entirely non-invasive and does not involve any cuts, needles, incisions, drugs, or anesthesia. This advanced applicator offers the same level of success in double chin reduction as with CoolSculpting in other areas of the body. 

The CoolMini treatment can be performed with little to no discomfort and downtime for the patient, unlike cosmetic surgery procedures. 

How does CoolMini Work?

The CoolMini treatment is based on the unique cooling process that has made CoolSculpting one of the most popular fat reduction procedures today. Harvard scientists have developed a unique cooling process. They found that fat cells can be isolated as they respond first to low temperatures.  

The CoolMini device targets precise areas of unwanted fat beneath the chin while causing no harm to the healthy surrounding tissue. 

The fat cells rapidly respond to the low temperature delivered through the applicator and start to freeze off. These frozen fat cells will eventually be broken down, and the body will expel them through its natural metabolic process.

The patient is able to accomplish a sleeker, sculpted, and more youthful looking chin and neck with this procedure. The CoolSculpting and CoolMini techniques eliminate fat in a permanent manner. 

The fat cells eliminated through the cooling process will not return in the same area in the future.  

Convenient, In-Office Procedure 

A single CoolMini treatment to enhance chin contours may take up to 45 minutes to complete. The procedure is undertaken at the provider’s office. 

During the procedure, the patient can listen to music or rest comfortably. For best results, patients usually need to undergo two to three treatment sessions that are spaced one month part.

Patients often wonder about the number of CoolSculpting treatment sessions that they will require to achieve optimal results. In reality, this depends on the unique needs of the patient.

Other factors that influence the number of sessions are the patient’s expectations, commitment to the treatment, and attitude towards a healthy lifestyle.

CoolSculpting can reduce specific areas that are challenging to lose through diet and exercise alone. But doctors encourage all patients to adopt a healthy lifestyle before, during, and after their CoolSculpting treatment.

Generally, patients undergo one to three CoolSculpting treatment sessions in each treated site to lose fat. The number of treatments necessary depends on the outcomes that a patient seeks as well as the number of treatment areas.

Motykie Medical Spa, led by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie, provides CoolSculpting to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities.

A Single Coolsculpting Treatment May Be All You Need

CoolSculpting can naturally reduce between 20 and 25 percent of the fat cells in the treated areas. It is not meant to be a weight-loss treatment. However, it can enhance the body shape enabling the patient to look as if they’ve lost weight.

The reason for this is that a 20 to 25 percent decrease in fat can make a great impact on the appearance of stubborn fat pockets. It can create a noticeable difference for all body types. But it is not as effective on substantial fatty pockets.

When a patient is close or nearing their optimal, healthy weight, CoolSculpting is most effective. In general, a patient should only have around 20 t0 30 extra pounds to reduce.

Patients at the optimal weight for this procedure may require only one round of CoolSculpting to attain their desired appearance.

Multiple Treatments for Stubborn Fat Deposits

CoolSculpting is an effective solution for a small amount of stubborn fat. The patient may require multiple treatment sessions if they want to slim a more substantial area, or have slightly more fat on their body.

Patients normally achieve their desired results after two rounds of CoolSculpting to freeze the fat in the targeted areas.

After two to three treatment sessions, a patient can experience dramatic improvements in their physical appearance. In theory, a patient can undergo any number of procedures. The treatment is safe and stimulates a natural bodily response to fat removal.

Each treatment will be spaced several months apart. This will allow the body sufficient time to react naturally and eliminate fat cells through its metabolic processes. In general, it is ideal to wait a minimum of 30 days prior to starting a new CoolSculpting session, with four months being ideal.

Before every treatment session, it is advisable for the patient to ensure that they are healthy. In case they have had previous treatments, they should wait before receiving treatment in the same area to make sure that all possible side effects have subsided.

However, a patient can receive CoolSculpting treatment in multiple sites during one session. It is only recommended to wait if they want to re-treat a specific area.

Treatments are as Unique as your Body

Patients who are within 20 to 30 pounds of their ideal weight, and have specific problem areas, should not require more than one to two treatments.

After three treatments, patients are typically able to transform their bodies completely. But it is vital to have reasonable expectations. Patients should also wait for the entire four months after their procedure before seeking another treatment session.

CoolSculpting relies on the body’s natural metabolic processes to eliminate fat cells. Therefore, it may take time for the results to become apparent. Motykie Medical Spa receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas for CoolSculpting treatment.
