COOLSCULPTING ELITE

Looking for CoolSculpting Elite in Danville? CoolSculpting Elite is a cutting-edge, FDA-approved non-surgical fat reduction treatment designed to freeze and eliminate stubborn fat cells with minimal downtime. At Potozkin + Ellis Dermatology, we use CoolSculpting Elite to deliver natural-looking, long-lasting results tailored to your body contouring goals.

What Is CoolSculpting Elite?

We can’t stop stubborn fat from accumulating, but we can eliminate the pockets that resist diet and exercise. CoolSculpting Elite is a next-generation fat-freezing treatment that uses controlled cooling technology to target and destroy fat cells without surgery. If you’re looking to sculpt your silhouette and reduce unwanted bulges without constant maintenance, CoolSculpting Elite may be right for you.

Like other cryolipolysis treatments, CoolSculpting Elite helps eliminate fat cells through controlled cooling, but it features advanced dual applicators and enhanced technology that make treatments more comfortable and efficient. The unique process permanently destroys targeted fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by your body.

Other contributing factors to stubborn fat accumulation may include:

  • Natural aging process
  • Genetics and hormones
  • Decreased metabolism
  • Areas resistant to diet and exercise

CoolSculpting Elite is FDA-approved to treat fat in 9 different areas of the body. Results typically become visible within 1-3 months, with optimal results appearing after 2-3 months. The destroyed fat cells are gone permanently, making it an excellent option for those who want lasting body contouring results.

How Does CoolSculpting Elite Work?

CoolSculpting Elite works by delivering precisely controlled cooling to target stubborn fat cells beneath the skin. The advanced technology cools fat cells to a temperature that causes them to crystallize and die, while leaving surrounding tissues unharmed. What makes CoolSculpting® Elite different? Its dual applicator system allows for treating two areas simultaneously, and the redesigned applicators are 18% larger than traditional CoolSculpting applicators, providing better coverage and more comfortable treatments. Our Danville patients love it for its efficiency and the natural-looking results that develop over time.

What Areas Can CoolSculpting Elite Treat?

CoolSculpting Elite is FDA-approved to treat fat in these 9 areas:

  • Abdomen (upper and lower belly)
  • Flanks (love handles)
  • Inner thighs
  • Outer thighs (saddlebags)
  • Upper arms (bra bulge)
  • Back fat (bra line)
  • Submental area (double chin)
  • Underneath the buttocks (banana roll)
  • Above the knees

The versatile applicator system allows our experienced team to customize treatments for your unique body contours and aesthetic goals. During your consultation, we’ll assess which areas are most appropriate for your desired outcomes.
