I had a consultation where I was told that Zeltig now recommending second treatment on same areas after 30 days from first treatment for more effectiveness? Is this accurate? I've seen everywhere else that doctors recommend 3-4 months later. Thanks.

Answer: Second Coolsculpting Treatment
We have been performing Coolsculpting since it was FDA approved three years ago. I generally will not perform a second treatment to the same area for at least 2 months.

Answer: CoolSculpting Treatment CoolSculpting is performed in "cycles" with each cycle taking an hour and covers one area. 60 minutes is required for the tissue to reach the correct temperature to cause the fat to shrink. Typically, separate cycles are needed for the upper and lower abdomen (each an hour), and each flank requires separate hour cycles. You can expect to see the full results in about 4 months, as the body's process of removing the fat is gradual and accomplished over time, so the complete changes aren't immediate. Estimates are that the CoolSculpting effects should last between 10-15 years, especially in those patients who maintain normal weight levels.
