My chin fat is very soft and squishy. I am afraid that it will sag after the treatment. I am 37 years old, healthy and active. The chin is genetic. How many areas should the applicator be placed in one session for the best results? Do you think 20-25% reduction will be noticeable?
Answer: Cool mini Dear Christine, thank you for your question. Absolutely best way forward is to have a one to one consultation with certified provider but at a glance you seem like a perfect candidate for overlapping treatment with 2 applicators. Usually it’s a one off treatment and my advice is less is more. With regards to skin laxity, at 36 we would expect good skin retraction post treatment. Good luck, Dr G x

Answer: Cool Mini Treatment Plan Hi and thank you for your question! We are seeing fantastic results with the cool mini, with very little to no downtime! Most patients only have mild swelling (if any) for a few days. It is difficult to say for sure how many applicators you would be a candidate for without measuring with the sizing tool. However, it does seem that overlapping at least two cycles would be ideal to get more definition in the jawline and cover more areas. This would also allow for a better result from the first session, because the two cycle would overlap in the center. We do see some skin tightening in this area (and cool mini did receive an FDA approval for skin tightening), but for best result you may want additional treatments to tighten the skin further once you cool mini sessions are complete. Additionally, we are recommending all of our patients start on a topical skin cream from Alastin called TransFORM body treatment. This has been found in studies to accelerate and enhance the fat reduction process from coolsculpting and to improve the appearance of skin texture, laxity and crepiness. Best, Dr. Grant Stevens
