Fire & ice treatment?

Question

I like to know if this works the plastic surgeon I went spoke of mini cool sculpting the neck area and than laser / ultheray since I don’t want the surgery I know the outcome is not as great as the actual surgical procedure I was told by another office I’m wasting my money so what’s the truth behind this treatment

John M. Hilinski, MD · Answer

It is hard to answer that question without seeing photos of your neck region. But Cool Mini does work in the correct patient and provider. Ultherapy (the fire) is intended to help tighten the skin after Cool Mini. But this may not be needed as there is some clinical evidence to suggest that Cool Mini actually helps to tighten the skin in many cases.

If you have small problem areas, you can use non invasive methods like Coolsculpting with Vanquish (Fire & Ice) or trusculpt iD to get small areas of fat reduced. Skin also tightens if you combine this with Exilis Ultra, Venus Legacy, and Inmode Forma/Contoura radiofrequency treatments. You boost the results from Coolsculpting if you add in Kybella injections to melt fat as well. We often combine Coolsculpting with shock therapy like ZWave, EVIVE, and Cellutone to get even faster results, more improvement, and less risk of combinations like nodules, swelling, neuropathy or paradoxical hyperplasia. Coolsculpting often takes a few treatments separated 8 to 12 weeks apart to get significant improvement.However, to get the most fat removal, contouring, skin tightening and definition, a VASER HI-DEF Liposuction procedure with ThermiRF, Renuvion (J-Plasma), InMode BodyTite and fat grafting is your best bet. This will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a body contouring and hi-definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer.

Cool Sculpting is a non surgical  procedure that reduce excess fat in the sub mental area.Ultherapy is used for tightening of the skin. I recommend you contact a dermatologist in your area for a proper evaluation. Best wishes ,

This is a popular treatment in our Del Mar dermatology practice. We use CoolSculpting to address the excess fat, then a week later we do Ultherapy in the submental and jowl area. Patients start to see results in about three weeks with the  peak result occurring at about 3 months. This can be a great non-surgical option for someone not yet prepared for surgery.
