Let's look at some frequently asked questions about this fat-freezing procedure available at our New Orleans office.
What is Coolsculpting Elite?
The Coolsculpting Elite treatment is a noninvasive way to reduce unwanted fat in specific body areas. Cryolipolysis, the process used in this procedure, releases and eliminates fat cells without harming the surrounding tissues. The Coolsculpting Elite technology targets stubborn pockets of fat that are often resistant to diet and exercise.How does the Coolsculpting Elite fat-freezing treatment work?
During a Coolsculpting Elite treatment, an applicator is placed on the targeted body area. This applicator delivers controlled cooling to freeze and destroy the fat cells beneath the skin's surface. The body gradually gets rid of these damaged fat cells on its own, giving the appearance of more sculpting.Is the Coolsculpting Elite procedure considered safe?
Yes, the Coolsculpting Elite procedure has been approved by the FDA and is considered safe and very effective for reducing unwanted fat. It is a noninvasive procedure that does not involve needles, incisions, or anesthesia. The cooling technology used in Coolsculpting Elite specifically targets fat cells without harming surrounding tissues.How long does a Coolsculpting Elite treatment take?
The length of a Coolsculpting Elite treatment will vary greatly depending on the size and the specific number of areas being treated. On average, each session can take anywhere from 35 minutes to an hour. However, multiple areas can be treated simultaneously for quicker results.,Does a Coolsculpting Elite appointment come with any downtime?
One of the primary reasons our patients love this treatment is that it does not require any downtime. Our patients can return to their daily activities immediately after their office procedure, making it a very convenient option for those with busy schedules.Before and After images of Lupo Center for Aesthetic and General Dermatology
