With CoolSculpting, individual heads are attached to the patient’s body during treatment. The heads have different shapes, sizes and, sometimes different cycle times, and because of this, are used to contour specific body areas. For example, the CoolCurve+ head is used most often for treating flanks and the CoolFit head is often used to treat inner thighs and arms. Because each patient is different a custom plan is designed specifically for their needs. It’s important to be sure that your CoolSculpting provider has a full complement of heads because they have been released at different times, such as the CoolSmooth was recently updated.
With CoolSculpting we can contour the body from the chin to the knee.
Commonly treated areas include:
- Flanks
