After the CoolSculpting system sends your treated fat cells into a slow-death cycle by lowering their temperature to the point where the cells cease to function, your body takes weeks to months to finish the job of flushing away the debris. The exact timeline varies by individual, based on your metabolism. It’s normal to not really notice any difference for a month or two after your treatment. Your final results don’t usually become apparent until about 2 to 6 months have passed. Two other points to remember: 1) CoolSculpting only eliminates 20% to 35% of fat during each session (higher numbers are reached with the addition of Zimmer Z-Wave radial pulsed therapy and proper applicator), which means the difference may not be dramatic after just one session; 2) If you’re monitoring your progress visually, you may not notice the difference, especially if you haven’t taken “before” measurements and photos to track your process. If you haven’t done your “befores,” do them now and then compare your measurements and photos after another month. Please find a board-certified dermatologist to administer your next treatment, if you go on to another session; you need a certified expert to get you the best results.
I examine my patients in consultation in my NYC practice to determine if they do have excess fat in their upper outer arms, not just hanging loose sagging skin. Then I determine how many applicators they need. Many need two along the length of the arm on each side. The new cool Petite applicator was specifically engineered for this area and works better than the older coolfit applicator which was initially designed for the inner thigh but has been appropriately used in coolsculpting prior to the development of cool petite. Not all providers who do coolscupting have cool petite applicators.results can take months to show. Often we do at least two, if not three treatments, every two months.
Hello,Thank you for your question. Some patients can be late responders to CoolSculpting. It usually takes 3-4 months to see full results. You may notice them all toward the end of that time period. Before and after pictures can also be a big help! Sometimes we don't notice the results on ourselves as much because we see ourselves all the time. Please consult with your local provider to review. Good luck and congratulations on your treatment.
Thanks for reaching out!CoolScultping results vary for each individual. Results can be seen as early as 4 weeks but can take up to 3 months to see the results. Please be patient. Make sure to schedule your follow up to review photos and have any further questions answered. Best,
Some people see results as soon as 3 weeks, for others it can be 2 or 3 months. The body will continue to flush out fat cells for 4 to 6 months. Good luck.
Results after CoolSculpting can take up to 12 weeks to see. Some people do notice some improvement before this time, but it is not unusual to not see any changes after only 5 weeks.
Hello and thank you for your question. For most people it takes about six weeks to begin to see some results in the treatment area. Your full results are realized between three and four months. Also, a second round of treatment is usually required to get that "Wow" result. We recommend to our patients they continue on their fitness and nutrition plan including hydration which helps rid the dead fat cells from the body. In addition to that, look for topical products that can help reduce circumference and improve skin texture.Check in with your provider and they can advise you on a long term plan to help you achieve your desired results. Good luck!
CoolSculpting eliminates fat by exposing fat cells to the exact temperatures required to induce fat cell death. The fat cells are then safely processed through your immune system and eliminated naturally from your body. This elimination process occurs at different rates for every individual. It is not unusual for patients' results to take as long as three months to become apparent. Some patients even continue to see improvements up to sixteen weeks following their CoolSculpting. We recommend a follow-up appointment with your board-certified CoolSculpting specialist, who can help you decide if and when you want to better your results with an additional CoolSculpting treatment.
Thank you for your question. On average, patients see results anywhere from 2 to 3 months after the procedure. Sometimes the results are visible after one month but this is not very common.
The company states that results can happen in as early as three weeks! That being said, when we got our machine and followed up with phone calls at 3-4 weeks, we were disappointed to hear that they could not tell any difference. Not to worry, at 6-8 week and even as far out as 12 up to 16 weeks we were seeing great results. Through the studies, on a cellular level, we know that the process has begun by three weeks but actually seeing results happens between 6-8 weeks.
