Silly Question re:Coolsculpting - when doing the inner thighs - does that count as one area or two areas in terms of cost?

When treating the inner thighs with CoolSculpting, the applicator needs to be attached for one hour to each side.  That would be considered two applications but you should check with the physician treating you in regards to cost.  Some physicians may base their charge per application and some may price it by area.  The pricing by area would most likely be twice as much as the pricing per application.  

This is a great question, thank you for asking! CoolSculpting is priced per applicator, in your case for the inner thighs, you would most likely require a total of two applicators. 35 minutes per applicator (cycle) on each of your inner thighs. Every physician has their own way of charging for this based on charging by applicator or by area. I highly recommend contacting a physician for a private consultation to determine how many sessions and applicators you will need to achieve your desired goal and to get a more  accurate cost breakdown. I hope this answered your question. I have included additional information in my video below that I think you may find helpful. Best of luck to you!

Coolsculpting works by special applicator that cools the skin to a point to damage the fat cells but not the skin. Over time these fat cells die-off resulting in body contouring. Costs depend on the number of applicators placed, and the thighs require 2 applicators one on each side.

SculpSure is a much better treatment than CoolSculpting as SculpSure defeats CoolSculpting in head-to-head studies. SculpSure is the only FDA-approved laser to provide the
quickest, most effective treatment (25-minutes; melt 25% of unwanted
subcutaneous fat) and easiest recovery (none). Patients complete the treatment
and walk out of our office ready to resume their ordinary activities.

The cost of Coolsculpting depends on how many areas you are having treated. Each area can vary from $600 to $750 dollars. (each thigh) You should speak to your practitioner about how many sessions you will need on each area as well so that you have realistic financial and aesthetic expectations.My best,Sheila Nazarian

Great question. You really need to ask the practice and make sure you understand how they are quoting the procedure. Some will call it an "area" but treatment will require two "applicators" (or cycles, or treatments, etc). In our practice this treatment usually costs $1400 for a new patient, or $700 a cycle. If you have a $700 quote they're most likely only quoting one side. Best of luck.
