What is the difference between Cool Sculpting and Lipo Freeze besides the price? I just want to be sure I make the right choice. It's much more feasible for me to do Lipo Freeze, but I want to be sure I don't pay for something that won't give results. Thank you for your time.
Answer: Coolsculpting Coolsculpting is an excellent form of non-invasive fat reduction for the right patient. Some applicators take 1 or 2 hours but the new advantage applicators take only 35 minutes and have significantly less risk for delayed onset pain (especially in the abdomen). Results are seen at 2 months and typically 1-3 treatments will be necessary on each area to achieve ideal results. The number of treatments depends on the amount of fat there and the patient's goals. There is not downtime and the results can be impressive in the right patient. We also use the Zimmer Z-wave for improved patient comfort and added results. The best candidates are those who are in pretty good shape with areas of stubborn fat that won't go away no matter what. Coolsculpting is the only device that is FDA approved for getting rid of fat by freezing it. My best, Sheila Nazarian, MD, MMM Beverly Hills, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

CONTACT NOW Answer: CoolSculpting vs LipoFreeze? Thank you for the question. Be careful when comparing systems. CoolSculpting is FDA approved and has millions of cycles done. CoolSculpting can get a 25% reduction. We have found it to be very effective for the love handles, abdomen, bra area, arms, thighs, neck, and other areas. We have found that treating the area twice usually improves the fat cell kill significantly. Other physicians I have spoken to have found similar findings. The fat cells die and are taken up by the normal cell disposal mechanisms of the body. Liposuction is a surgical modality that is usually more dramatic, with a greater reduction. The fat cells are physically removed with liposuction. A tummy tuck is a surgical procedure that can be very powerful in the right patient. Again, the CoolSculpting non invasive, no surgery, no downtime. As always, the modality should be appropriate to the individual patient. Best to see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, who can evaluate for all modalities. Many offices have payment plans. Ask to speak with the office manager. Jeffrey J. Roth, M.D., F.A.C.S.
