Zeltiq CoolSculpting and Zerona were both FDA-approved at the same time, and both involve non-invasive fat removal. Is it fair to lump the two procedures together and compare them? Are good candidates for one treatment necessarily good candidates for the other?
Answer: Patient Candidacy for Lasers Targeting Fat Dear Sharon,I suggest all potential patients and parties interested in facial plastic surgery to consult a board certified facial plastic surgeon to receive the highest quality knowledge, treatment, care and skill available. A consultation provides you the opportunity to relay your concerns and desired outcome to the surgeon while the surgeon can assess your health profile and discuss his/her pertinent advice. It is in the consultation that patients realize if they are good candidates for one of the lasers that targets fat. Here at the Clevens Center, we tend to consider a patient's candidacy for SculpSure before other fat trimming techniques because SculpSure is the best procedure out there. In fact, SculpSure is the only FDA-approved laser to provide the quickest treatment (25-minutes) and easiest recovery (none). Patients complete the treatment and walk out of our office ready to resume their ordinary activities.

CONTACT NOW Answer: CoolSculpting vs. Zerona Zerona and CoolSculpting are both FDA cleared, non-invasive fat reduction treatments, however they function differently. Zerona uses laser light directed painlessly at the surface of the skin during a series of 1 hour treatments to shrink fat cells with patients losing between 3.6 to 5.5 inches all over. CoolSculpting uses a suction applicator to apply a controlled cooling to specific areas of fat, reducing individual bulges. Zerona results are seen immediately after the series of treatments, while CoolSculpting typically takes 1-3 months to see the final reduction. Zerona causes fat cells to shrink, while CoolSculpting kills and eliminates fat cells for good. They are both great treatments to reduce fat that resists all efforts through diet and exercise. I suggest making an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon that offers both treatments to discuss your options.

Answer: Coolsculpting versus Zerona Hands down, I would recommend Coolsculpting over the Zerona system. I have seen patients treated with Zerona, and the biggest complaint is the transient nature of the result from Zerona, and the need for multiple treatments. With Coolsculpting, there is a permanent reduction in the number of fat cells in the treated area and the patient satisfaction is much greater.

Answer: CoolSculpting vs. Zerona: How Do They Compare? Though CoolSculpting by Zeltiq and Zerona may sound somewhat similar and are often confused for one another, they are very different in the way that they work and their results. CoolSculpting is the only FDA approved treatment that kills the fat cells by freezing them to the point of elimination. These fat cells are killed permanently and do not return. There are no dietary restrictions or exercise programs that are indicated with CoolSculpting, however, those people who maintain a healthy diet and an active lifestyle will get the best out of their results. Zerona, on the other hand, uses cold laser to disrupt fat cells. The content of the fat cells leak out, but the fat cell remains alive and is not killed. So, the fat cells treated with Zerona can always grow back to their original size after the treatment. That's why it is recommended to be used in conjunction with a regular diet and exercise regimen. While Zerona is FDA approved, this approval is for non-invasive body contouring and not for fat reduction. We chose CoolSculpting over Zerona as there was overwhelming evidence that CoolSculpting is effective with long-lasting results. The same could not be said for Zerona. In our practice we have used CoolSculpting to treat many patients who previously had Zerona and did not see any results. They have all been very please with their results after just one CoolSculpting treatment!
