As you can now purchase the slim freezer belt for home use, does it not work on the same principle as cool sculpting only portable therefore okay to use at home?
Answer: CoolSculpting CoolSculpting is the only FDA approved Cryolipolysis treatment. I would be careful with at home procedures that may not be safe or effective. CoolSculpting has applicators that are shaped for specific areas of the body to deliver regulated cold for freezing fat in certain ares of the body. The belt does sound like it may be too good to be true. Be careful with product imitations.

Answer: Do it yourself CoolSculpt I like your question. Any good idea will be copied in time. Yes, cryolipolysis was discovered as a result of cold exposure. Popsicles can result in reduction of facial fat under ideal circumstances. I can not comment on any specific device for the reduction of fat with cold stuff. CoolSculpt has been been studied extensively and its' efficacy demonstrated. It monitors your tissue to reduce the chance of unwanted damage. The tissue is not merely chilled but held at an appropriate temperature to maximize fat reduction with minimal surrounding tissue damage. Holding a big ice cube on your abdomen will not do the same thing. Generally speaking, I stick to what I know can work.

Answer: Coolsculpting is tried and true - Don't be fooled I would not recommend something as you describe like a slim freezer belt. It if is not FDA cleared I would steer clear of it. It may work with the same principle, but the risks would be significant. Coolsculpting is a precise tried and true reproducible process that is safe and highly effective. Something like this would carry the risk of frostbite and uncertain, uneven and perhaps undesirable and irreversible results. I would not subject my patients to such risks. Be careful. I hope that helps.

Answer: CoolSculpting has a high degree of safety. I would not subject my patients to risk of injury from a procedure that has not passed the FDA clearance that CoolSculpting has obtained for fat reduction. Is the belt to which you refer effective? Does it cause frostbite? Does it actually reduce fat? CoolSculpting is a safe treatment but no device is without risk and one must keep this in mind when considering devices that are not regulated or not recommended by physicians.

Answer: No Substitute for Zeltiq's CoolSculpting While I am not familiar with the Slim Freezer Belt, it cannot match the results of true CoolSculpting by Zeltiq, as performed by a trained professional. First, the temperature of the CoolSculpting applicator is precisely controlled to destroy fat cells without damaging nearby tissues or nerves. I doubt an over-the-counter system can make the same claim. Second, an effective CoolSculpting session is dependent not only on Zeltiq's patented cryolipolysis(TM) technique, but the expertise of the practitioner – who needs to be trained and certified by Zeltiq.
