Coolsculpting or Clatuu? I have stubborn decade fat on lower abdomen and upper arms.

Hi there!
Thanks for your question! CoolSculpting is the ONLY FDA cleared fat reduction treatment in the US! You can expect to see up to a 25% fat reduction in the area treated. Results vary from person to person. I recommend consulting with a local CoolSculpting provider in person to determine exactly how many treatments you will need!

Good luck!

Thank you for your question. Both of these devices work on the basis of cryolipolysis, or controlled cooling, which freezes and destroys fat cells so they can be eliminated by the body. However, only CoolSculpting is approved by the FDA for use in the U.S. This means the device has been through rigorous testing to prove its safety and efficacy. While Clatuu has also been shown to be safe in other countries, it would be difficult to find a reputable doctor in this country that will offer a device that is not approved by the FDA. I encourage you to find a board-certified dermatologist that has expertise in non-surgical body contouring. Through an in-person consultation and discussion of your concerns and goals, your provider should be able to help you create the best treatment plan for you. 

multiple problem areas do best with contouring liposuction.
You need a formal evaluation by an expert in body shaping and contouring to determine what is best.  Traditional liposuction awake and smart liposuction are old methods and do very poorly for tightening skin or significant skin tightening or contouring.  Small problem areas can be improved slightly by these methods.  The best in body contouring not only removes fat with energy devices like VASER ultrasound but also internally heat the skin with radio-frequency devices such as J PLASMA/RENUVION, InMode BodyTite, ThermiRF to heat the under surface of the skin and tighten it at the same time as fat removal. These combinations are called 4D HIDEF VASER contouring and can only be done by a well . trained body contouring specialist. At the same time fat should be harvested, PRP and stem cells added and injected into muscles or indentations/cellulite to get body shaping and contouring.  This is known as a Brazilian butt lift when you inject the fat to the buttock for contouring and lifting, but fat can also be used in areas such as the chest/breast, arms/shoulders, calves and face.  Cellulite should also be treated with cellfina, sculptra, subcision and/or fillers such as bellafill, renuva synthetic fat, or sculptra.  If skin is very loose before surgery then it will need to be removed such as lower abdominal skin (tummy tuck/abdominoplasty), breast skin (breast lift), arm skin (brachioplasty).  Overall you need a full assessment, but simple liposuction alone will not tighten skin and needs a combination of various methods -- fat removal, skin tightening, defining, fat grafting, skin removal -- to get the best in body contouring and body sculpting.  Dr. Emer.
