If you want to do CoolSculpting on your abs, how many treatments are required?

Hi,Thanks for your question. The answer to your question depends totally on the patient. We recommend a minimum of two treatments per area. One treatment could consist of more than one cycle, depending on the size of the area. Seek out a well-trained and experienced physician or licensed medical aesthetician supervised by a physician for a consultation. Good luck.

If you want a
guesstimate of how many CoolSculpting treatments you will need, try
to imagine yourself with about 25% less fat in the abdominal area.
That is approximately the difference you can expect after your first
treatment. We actually push the results toward 35% with one treatment
with good technique, maximum intake of fat into the applicator and
use of the Z-wave device immediately afterwards. The Z-wave is a
sound wave device that breaks up the frozen fat cells and results in
more fat cell death per treatment session.
Some
patients need two to three sessions of CoolSculpting to get the new
contours they are looking for, particularly if they are a little
overweight and are using CoolSculpting to reshape and reduce their
body contours. It is often a great motivator, stimulating patients
toward further weight loss, by creating a more pleasing shape, then
you might need more than three sessions. The only way to get a
definitive answer is to consult a board-certified dermatologist who
has many years expertise in contouring the body with CoolSculpting;
you'll be able to get a good estimate of how many sessions would most
benefit you at that time.

Thank you for your question. The number of treatments required is very specific to the individual. An in person assessment is necessary. Please consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Regards,

Hello, Thank you for your question. The amount of cycles needed for that area will vary depending on the person and their desired results. We often times see a diamond formation on the abdomen which consists of 4 cycles. However they may need more or less depending on their specific situation. It's imperative to consult with a local physician to determine the best treatment plan. Good luck! 

Coolsculpting is great at reducing the amount of fat over the ab muscles. The number of treatments depend on your goals and how much fat tissue you are starting with. Coolsculpting removes 15-25% of the fat in a given area per treatment. Multiple treatments are usually required for an excellent result. Best of luck!

It depends on the amount of fat in the area you are treating, and how aggressive you want to be with your goals. Most people need at least two treatments for optimal results. Best wishes.

This is difficult to answer without pictures because the answer varies based on each patient's needs and their desired results. Keep in mind, for best results with Coolsculpting, a combination approach is needed. I recommend adding radiofrequency treatments like Vanquish, Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra for skin tightening and skin smoothing. VASER with ThermiRF is a great alternative. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

: Coolsculpting is a great treatment for the abdomen. Each person is different and has different problem areas on the abdomen. It is always best to see a qualified physician for a consultation to assess your concerns. It is most effective to do 2 treatments spaced out 30 to 45 days apart. It takes the body some time to process the cells and discard them. You should see results in 4 to 6 weeks.

Most patients will need a total of 2 treatments. The first treatment you are receiving a 20-25% reduction and the second you are receiving a 40-50% reduction.

CoolSculpting works great for reduction of abdominal fat volume.  I would need to see your abdomen to give you a precise answer, but most of my patients require two separate treatment sessions for this area.  If you really want your abs to pop, then a good diet and exercise routine after your CoolSculpting sessions will be important.
