What is CoolSculpting Elite?

CoolSculpting Elite is an FDA-cleared, non-surgical fat-reduction treatment that uses cryolipolysis: controlled cooling that selectively freezes fat cells so the body clears them naturally over the following weeks. It is the newest generation of the CoolSculpting system, with redesigned C-shaped applicators and the ability to treat two areas at once. CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared for nine treatment areas, and the manufacturer reports up to 20 to 25 percent fat reduction in a treated area per session (CoolSculpting).

At Beautiful Body and Beyond in Corona, CA, we use it for stubborn pockets of fat that resist diet and exercise, not as a weight-loss treatment; for overall weight, see our weight-loss program.

How it works. Fat cells are more sensitive to cold than the tissue around them. The applicator cools the area to just above freezing, which crystallizes the lipids inside fat cells and triggers apoptosis, a controlled cell death. Over the following weeks your lymphatic system clears those cells, and they do not regenerate.

What Elite adds over the original system:

  • C-shaped applicators that match the body’s curves and cover up to 18 percent more surface area
  • Dual sculpting: two areas treated at once, so visits take about 35 minutes per area
  • More applicator sizes for a better fit on more regions of the body
  • Enhanced comfort during the cooling cycle

Nine treatment areas, one customized plan

CoolSculpting Elite is FDA-cleared to reduce stubborn, pinchable fat in nine areas:

  • Abdomen
  • Flanks (love handles)
  • Inner, outer and distal thighs
  • Upper arms
  • Bra fat and back fat
  • Under the chin and along the jawline
  • Banana roll (beneath the buttocks)

During your consultation we map the areas that bother you most, then build a treatment plan around your goals. Most areas respond to one to three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart.

CoolSculpting Elite vs. Evolve

Which is right for you?

Both are non-surgical body contouring treatments we offer in Corona, and they solve different problems. CoolSculpting Elite removes fat cells; Evolve uses radiofrequency energy to tighten skin and reduce cellulite, and its Tone applicator also stimulates muscle. Many clients combine the two.

CoolSculpting Elite Evolve (InMode)
Mechanism Cryolipolysis: controlled cooling destroys fat cells Radiofrequency heat remodels skin and the tissue beneath it
Best for Pinchable pockets of stubborn fat Loose skin, cellulite, mild fat reduction, muscle toning
Typical plan 1 to 3 sessions per area, results at 1 to 3 months A series of weekly sessions, results build over 2 to 3 months
Session length About 35 minutes per area, two areas at once 30 to 60 minutes
Sensation Cold and pulling, then numbness Warm, massage-like
Downtime None; temporary redness, swelling or numbness None
Permanence Treated fat cells do not return Maintenance sessions recommended
The experience

Before, during and after your treatment

Before. No special preparation is needed. Avoiding aspirin and other blood thinners in the days before can help minimize bruising, and we talk through exactly what to expect.

During. You may feel a pulling or tugging sensation and intense cold at first, which fades as the area numbs. With dual sculpting, each area takes about 35 minutes; most clients read, work or nap.

After. There is virtually no downtime, and you can return to normal activities immediately. Temporary redness, swelling, tingling or numbness are common and resolve on their own. Most clients notice changes within one to three months, with full results at about six months. Once the fat cells are gone they do not come back, but a stable weight keeps the remaining cells from enlarging.

Good to know

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the questions we hear before a first CoolSculpting session.

Still have a question?
Who is a good candidate for CoolSculpting Elite?
Adults near their goal weight who have stubborn pockets of fat that resist diet and exercise, and who want non-surgical fat reduction with minimal downtime. It is not recommended during pregnancy or for people with cold-related conditions such as cryoglobulinemia, cold agglutinin disease or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria. A consultation confirms candidacy.
How long does a CoolSculpting Elite session take?
About 35 minutes per area. Elite’s dual applicators let us treat two areas at the same time, and multiple areas can be treated in one appointment.
When will I see results?
Results are not immediate, because your body clears the treated fat cells gradually through the lymphatic system. Changes typically begin at three weeks, the most noticeable results appear at one to three months, and full results arrive by about six months.
How long do results last?
Treated fat cells are eliminated and do not return, so results last as long as your weight stays stable. Significant weight gain can enlarge the fat cells that remain.
Is CoolSculpting Elite painful?
You will feel intense cold and a pulling or tugging sensation for the first several minutes, then the area goes numb. Most clients read, work or nap during treatment. Temporary redness, swelling, bruising, tenderness or numbness can follow and resolve on their own.
Is CoolSculpting a weight-loss treatment?
No. CoolSculpting reduces localized, pinchable fat in the areas we treat; it is for sculpting, not for significant weight loss. If overall weight is your goal, our physician-supervised weight-loss program with semaglutide or tirzepatide is the better starting point, and the two can be combined once your weight has stabilized.
Can I combine CoolSculpting Elite with other treatments?
Yes. We often pair CoolSculpting Elite with Evolve for skin tightening or muscle toning, and with our weight-loss program when overall weight, not just stubborn pockets, is the goal.
Can I finance my CoolSculpting treatment?
Yes. We partner with Cherry to offer payment plans, including 0% APR options for qualified applicants. See our financing page or ask at your consultation.
