CoolSculpting uses cryolipolysis (cold) as its baseline technology to kill fat cells, while Body FX uses radiofrequency (heat). After reviewing the results we have come to like CoolSculpting as a more effective and controlled technology. In fact, we were so successful with one machine that we had to buy a second one to keep up with demand. We now very seldomly perform liposuction because CoolSculpting has taken over much of our liposuction practice.
While both non-invasive procedures help reduce the excess patches of fat cells that pester patients' bodies, BodyFX and CoolSculpting have a few minor differences that make them a choice that should be left up to the patient. While the applicators that are similar to a vacuum are both comparable, the biggest difference in the fat-loss technique pertains to temperature, as CoolSculpting uses cold temperatures, while BodyFX uses a heat waves through radio frequency. It is all based on what the patient has a higher tolerance for, but be sure to consult a physician.
Hello!Looking up BodyFX, it says that it is a treatment that is to treat cellulite. Coolsculpting however is designed to help distinct fat pockets/bulges versus the cellulite which has to do with the way fat presents with internal connective tissue. If you are looking for fat reduction in the abdomen I would choose CoolSculpting which has over 10 years of research behind it, but if you are looking for help with cellulite I would choose the BodyFX.I hope that helps!
There are many years of reliable effective results available confirming the effectiveness of CoolSculpting. The same can not be said about BodyFX.
