Hi. Thank u for your time. I was expecting the CoolSculpting treatment to take an hour per area but the esthetician only did 10-20 minutes per application explaining that I didn’t need more than that time, I had my lower back, arms and stomach done. She also explained that different areas of the body needed different times of treatment, like the arms only needed 10 minutes of treatment. My arms were very bruised after the ten minutes.
Answer: Is 10-20 minute CoolSculpting application enough? It sounds as if you may not have been treated with a real CoolSculpting device or were not treated correctly with a true CoolSculpting device. The treatment time for CoolSculpting with the older applicators is 1 hour for each applicator. With the newer applicators, the treatment time is 35 minutes for the smaller applicator and 45 minutes for the larger applicator. If you were treated with a real CoolSculpting machine and either the newer or the older applicators were used, you still would not have been treated adequately with only a 10-20 minute treatment.

Answer: 10 minutes is not an accepted protocol of the CoolSculpting device, regardless of which applicator or body site being treated CoolSculpting, the brand that is FDA cleared has done exhaustive studies and created protocols that are not changed by physicians using the machines. The first few minutes of the device involve suction and massage before the cooling occurs. The provider can't start it midway, nor should they, so that would mean that there's even less than the 10 minutes of freeze time. I doubt one would get a good result.In my NYC practice, board certified physicians evaluate our patients. I, myself, apply the applicator and start the cycle on the computer screen. There is no alteration of the CoolSculpting protocol !The information provided in Dr. Shelton's answer is for educational purposes only and is not intended to constitute medical advice.

Answer: Ten Minutes for CoolSculpting? Real CoolSculpting Takes 35 Minutes at Least CoolSculpting’s patented cryolipolysis procedure takes at least 35 minutes to work, per treated area. If your practitioner is telling you “10 minutes,” you may have received treatment with a knock-off machine or with someone who hasn’t been trained to perform CoolSculpting. Unfortunately, when a product is popular, lots of unscrupulous companies jump in and produce knock-offs that look like the originals, but can’t deliver and may even be harmful. The way to avoid a scenario like that is to go to the CoolSculpting website and find a certified practitioner in your area. Be sure to consult a board-certified dermatologist who is an expert using CoolSculpting to treat all areas of the body and who offers what we call DualSculpting — treating you with two machines at once to cut down on treatment time which is — still — at least 35 minutes per area.

Answer: Coolsculpt timing Hello,The newest applicators, Cool Advantage, are 35 minutes per cycle. The larger new applicators (Cool Advantage Plus) are 45 minutes. The times are pre-programmed and cannot be altered. If the applicator is taken off prior to the designated time frame, it is not considered a completed nor effective treatment. I recommend discussing with your service provider the exact treatment you received, because it does not sound like you had Coolsculpting. Good luck.

Answer: Not True Sounds like you were treated with a knock off imitation device. Cool sculpting treatments take a minimum of 35 minutes with the newer applicators. Unfortunately, you will have to wait and see if you get results. I would recommend you follow up with a certified coolsculpting practice. Best wishes.
