When the technician accidentally knocked the applicator from my flank, my coolsculpting session ended 3 minutes too early, before the full hour was completed. Will this affect my results? Thank you
Answer: Your CoolSculpting® results should not be affected. CoolSculpting® uses a precise regimen of controlled cooling to target fat while preserving surrounding tissue, and each 60-minute session is divided into therapeutic time and massage time. During the first 50 minutes of your CoolSculpting® session, fat cells are crystallized as the applicator passes over the treatment area. The cooling technology stops after 50 minutes. The last 10 minutes of the session are devoted to massaging the treatment area. In your case, you lost 3 minutes of massage time, which should not impact your CoolSculpting® results.

Answer: CS treatment still effective I have added a link that might be helpflul...Hi mjanna. Based on the mechanism of action, 3 minutes short out of 60 min is not enough to lead to a significant limitation in your outcome. There are now faster 35 minute applicators, and a treatment interruption or limitation of any sort would likely cause an issue. Hope you like your results!

Answer: CoolSculpting Treatment Cut Short Hello mjanna. With the older CoolSculpting applicators the treatment is one hour long. 50 minutes is actually freezing time and the last 10 minutes are massage time done by the machine. Your treatment ended during the massage segment and this should not affect your results. The new CoolAdvantage applicator cuts the treatment time down to 35 minutes without any massage time. Hope this helps answer your question.

Answer: Coolsculpting Coolsculpting is an excellent form of non-invasive fat reduction for the right patient. Some applicators take 1 or 2 hours but the new advantage applicators take only 35 minutes and have significantly less risk for delayed onset pain (especially in the abdomen). Results are seen at 2 months and typically 1-3 treatments will be necessary on each area to achieve ideal results. The number of treatments depends on the amount of fat there and the patient's goals. There is not downtime and the results can be impressive in the right patient. We also use the Zimmer Z-wave for improved patient comfort and added results. The applicator being cut off 3 minutes early will not affect your results.My best,Sheila Nazarian, MD, MMMBeverly Hills, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
