Is one CoolSmooth Pro Applicator by zeltiq coolsculpt sufficient to de-bulk upper abdomen by 25%?

Coolsmooth applicator was designed for flat areas such as outer thigh region. It requires a special band to hold it tight against the area being treated. It most likely will not work well on the abdomen

Hello, Thank you for your question. Without a picture it is impossible to answer this question. However, in our practice we find the CoolMax ( CoolAdvantage Plus - depending on the system being used ) provides the best results when trying to de-bulk. Please consult with your physician in person to determine the best course of action! Good luck! 

Your question is difficult to answer without pictures. The CoolSmooth applicator is meant for areas of the body in which the fat is not "pinchable", such as the outer thighs. It is not the first choice for treatment of the abdomen. If you are a candidate for the suction based applicators then I would not use the CoolSmooth on your abdomen. In rare cases it can be an option, but these are certainly the minority. Remember, improper use and placement of the CoolSculpting applicators can result in dents and "shark bites". Make sure you are under the care of an experienced physician provider.
