How effective is the Coolsculpting procedure on arms ?

Now
that Zeltiq has come out with a number of variously sized
applicators, I have had great success in treating arm fat on many
patients. However, the upper arms often have some skin laxity,
especially in women over 50. In cases such as those, I might combine
CoolSculpting with ThermiTight or even choose ThermiTight or
Thermi250 as an alternative fat-removal technique. In short, the best
solution to arm fat will vary by individual. Please consult a
board-certified dermatologist so that your arm fat, skin, and muscle
can all be evaluated and the best fat-removal procedure chosen for
you.

Coolsculpting can be very effective for the arms, especially now that Zeltiq has come out with new sized applicators. In certain cases, depending on each patient, I may combine CoolSculpting for fat-removal, with ThermiTight, to treat skin laxity. Every patient is different so the best solution to arm fat will vary by individual. It’s very important you consult with a board-certified dermatologist or an expert in fat removal so you receive the best treatment that is customized to you!

I prefer Coolsculpting of the arms over liposuction (even though I do both) because the slow fat loss with Coolsculpting allows time for the skin to retract.  Sometimes, when the skin is not very elastic, you can get saggy looking skin after liposuction.  Discuss with a plastic surgeon to see which he or she recommends.Good Luck.
