Is it true that the best coolscuplt results occur when any given area is treated twice within a two week span of time?

Question

I got my procedure done 3/20/14. I had two sections done in one day. One on my lower abdomen and one on the upper abdomen. I was debating whether to go in for 2nd procedure within the 2 weeks of first procedure as recommended by doctor, or to wait 2 months before second procedure. I'm 5'5 120 and my target area is some what small.

While I do not think there is any harm in having a second CoolSculpting treatment done 2 weeks after the first, I generally like to wait 1-2 months between treatments.  At 2 weeks after the first treatment, you would not yet be able to see the results of the procedure.

I would recommend waiting about a month in between treatments. Coolsculpt is a great way to decrease unwanted fat. Good luck with you treatment.Dr. T

Thank you for your question. You can have your second treatment 30 days after your first treatment. However, some patients like to wait 3 months to see their results before having their second treatment. Best of Luck!

Zeltiq received its FDA approval and conducted its clinical studies with a 30 day timeframe between treatments on the same area. Different areas can be treated on the same day or at any time subsequently. Each treatment will eliminate approximately 20% of the fat cells in the treated area.

Robert Whitfield, MD · Answer

It is an off label use to use the applicator twice on the same area.  This can be done after the first treatment on the area but in a slightly different position.
