CoolSculpting® Elite | New York
CoolSculpting at BeautyFix Medspa is one of the most popular treatments amongst patients for non-surgical fat reduction. This is a noninvasive, body contouring process that helps freeze fat in areas that don’t respond to diet and exercise. This treatment is perfect for someone who exercises and eats healthy, but still has stubborn pockets of fat they just can’t seem to shake. CoolSculpting works by freezing stubborn pockets of fat on the body, causing them to die. How does CoolSculpting Work?
CoolSculpting can help you achieve your desired figure with Cryolipolysis, a FDA cleared fat freezing technology. No needles, no special diets, no supplements, no surgery. And most importantly, no downtime. CoolSculpting technology safely delivers precisely controlled cooling to gently and effectively target the fat cells underneath the skin. The treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen) and eliminated from the body, leaving a more sculpted, contoured you.
The ideal candidate for this treatment is anyone that has pinchable fat. The areas that can be treated are the abdomen, love handles, back, bra strap, chin, inner and outer thighs, knees, and upper arms. BeautyFix has the newest CoolSculpting technology which means it will take only 35-45 minutes per area! Patients often spend their treatment time reading, working on their laptops, or simply relaxing. Unlike a lot of other fat reducing treatments, CoolSculpting takes little time and is pretty simple to fit into your daily life. After your CoolSculpting treatment, you can typically get right back into your busy day.

Treatments that use laser, sonic waves and even surgery to remove fat can actually destroy other tissue in the process by burning, shattering or extracting non-fat cells which may require downtime for your body to heal. Fortunately, CoolSculpting doesn’t burn, shatter or extract any cells. Developed by Harvard scientists, this unique, FDA-cleared, patented treatment uses a targeted cooling process that kills the fat cells underneath the skin, freezing them to the point of elimination. Only fat cells are frozen. Your healthy skin cells remain, well, healthy. No knives. No suction hoses. No needles. No scars. Once crystallized, the fat cells die and are naturally eliminated from your body.
CoolSculpting Elite is the latest and most advanced version of CoolSculpting available at our Flatiron and Upper East Side locations. This advanced version of CoolSculpting can treat more areas of the body at a time, including smaller and harder-to-reach areas. Using dual applicators allows for faster results. Additionally, CoolSculpting Elite uses C-shaped applicators that conform better to the body's natural curves.
Real People. Real Results.
What Happens During A Treatment?
During the treatment, a cooling device is applied to the area of the body being treated, and the temperature is lowered to a level that causes the fat cells to freeze. Fat cells die at a lower temperature than regular cells, so the rest of your cells stay intact during this time.
What is the length of the Coolsculpting Treatment?
The length of the treatment varies depending on the size of the area, but typically lasts around 20-70 mins per applicator. During the treatment, you will likely feel a cooling sensation or some discomfort. Post-treatment, your body will begin to naturally dispose of the dead fat cells. On average, CoolSculpting can remove 20-25% of stubborn fat cells from the treated area. Each session is typically between 60 and 90 minutes long, depending on the size of the area being treated and the number of applicators required. For most patients, two to three treatment sessions are needed to reach the desired goals.
What parts of my body can CoolSculpting treat?
CoolSculpting is FDA cleared to treat nine different parts of the body. It can be used to eliminate excess fat in the following areas:
- under the jawline
- under the chin
- the upper arms
- back fat
- bra fat
- the flank area
- abdomen
- thighs

Who is a good candidate for CoolSculpting/CoolSculpting® Elite?
CoolSculpting is designed to help a healthy individual remove unwanted fat pockets that they are struggling to get rid of with healthy eating and exercise alone. If you can pinch your fat, we can freeze it away!
Does CoolSculpting hurt?
CoolSculpting as well as CoolSculpting Elite is a non-invasive treatment that typically does not cause any significant pain. You may experience slight pinching or pulling sensations in the treatment area during the procedure.
How does CoolSculpting compare to surgical treatments like liposuction?
CoolSculpting is a non-invasive alternative to traditional liposuction. Unlike liposuction, which involves surgery and a longer recovery period, CoolSculpting is a non-surgical treatment and requires no downtime, making it much easier to fit into a busy schedule. In addition, CoolSculpting is designed to target specific areas of the body, while liposuction can be used to remove larger amounts of fat from multiple areas. Talk to your provider about your body goals to determine if liposuction or CoolSculpting are right for you.
Are there side effects to CoolSculpting?
Side effects with this treatment are possible, but extremely rare. On average, one to 10 out of every 10,000 patients may experience a side effect, such as the treatment area becoming enlarged. The vast majority of CoolSculpting patients experience no side effects.
When will I see my CoolSculpting results?
CoolSculpting results are not immediate and tend to appear gradually. You may begin to notice visible changes within several weeks to a few months after your treatment. It is important to maintain a healthy and an active lifestyle and stay hydrated to see the best results.
Can you expect permanent results from CoolSculpting?
Yes, the results of CoolSculpting are long-lasting and can be considered permanent since the treated fat cells are eliminated by the body and do not regenerate. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle through a balanced diet and regular exercise can help prolong the results.
Do I need a consultation for CoolSculpting?
A consultation may be required to determine the exact number of treatment sessions. However, a CoolSculptingtreatment plan may need you to take two or more sessions using 4-6 applicators to eliminate stubborn fat and achieve the transformational results you’re looking for.
