Can 2 Antifreeze Membranes Reduce the Coolsculpting Results?

ttop10
I bought 3 Coolsculpting sessions and I had my first 1 yesterday and the lady put 2 antifreeze membranes on my belly and then the applicator. I'm fairly skinny but with a belly. First she doubted if I had enough fat to be sucked, but it actually did. Why did she put 2 membranes? I'm wondering if this was intentionally to would make the procedure less effective so that I'd have to go back in 4 months and redo it and they'd make more money. I didn't feel any pain or discomfort at all times.
