Q1: What applicators would you recommend for my abdomen? I am thinking 2 vertical coolfits (see photo with coolfit applicator), however the Coolsculpt rep suggested 4 cool cores in a diamond pattern (see photo with cool advantage template). However, I think 4 cool cores is way too much coverage for my abdomen. Is there a risk for a "shark bite" or effect with the cool fits on small pockets of fat on the abdomen?

Answer: Applicator of choice for Coolsculpting Thank you for your questions and for sending photos to review. However, reviewing photos is not the best way to decide which hand piece is best. For the abdomen most women have a fat pattern that is in a diamond shape and therefore the CoolCore hand piece is usually the best option. Once again, I would suggest having the consult in person, however I feel your clinician is on the correct path.

Answer: CoolSculpting The Abdomen: Which Applicators To Use? We would need to examine your fat distribution and pinchability in person to determine which applicators would be most appropriate for you. Looking at your pictures alone I would agree with your CoolSculpting rep that the diamond pattern would give you the best coverage. Best wishes.

Answer: Applicator choice for CS Hi jpsmax. The choice of applicator has much to do with the orientation of pinchable fat, so an exam (as opposed to only pics) is essential to say for sure. The diamond pattern has been successful in my practice without resulting in excessive removal or depressions, regardless of the amount of fat. I don't recommend the coolfits for your abdomen. Be sure to consult with a provider who has advanced training and experience through Coolsculpting University. Best wishes,

Answer: Diamond sounds right Thank you for your question. I would say that for most patients, the diamond configuration is the most appropriate placement of the CoolSculpting applicator. Of course, the best way to plan your treatments is via an in-person examination, where your abdomen is palpated and the best orientation of the applicator placement is determined by how pinchable your tissues are. I have also seen good results with vertical placement of the CoolFit applicator on the abdomen.
