Discover CoolSculpting Elite®: the non-invasive cryolipolysis technology to eliminate localized fat and shape your figure.

Technology Overview

CoolSculpting Elite®: innovation through cryolipolysis for a sculpted silhouette

CoolSculpting Elite® technology revolutionizes body contouring through cryolipolysis by using a controlled cooling process to permanently target and eliminate fat cells.

This treatment, recognized worldwide for its effectiveness, is based on the sensitivity of adipose tissue to cold, triggering the programmed death of adipocytes without affecting the surrounding tissue.

The Elite version is distinguished by its ability to simultaneously treat multiple areas thanks to its optimized applicators, offering a faster experience and extended coverage.

Indications

Cryolipolysis by CoolSculpting Elite® is ideal for those who want to refine their figure without surgery.

Here are the main indications for treatment:

• Targeted body refinement

This treatment is particularly recommended for targeting and reducing localized fat deposits that are resistant to exercise and a balanced diet. It allows the silhouette to be sculpted in a harmonious and personalized way.

• Treatment of areas resistant to exercise

Certain areas of the body, such as love handles, abdomen, or thighs, may have persistent fat despite an active lifestyle. CoolSculpting Elite® acts precisely on these areas for a visually satisfactory result.

• Optimizing the figure after a stable diet

For those who have reached a stable weight but want to refine their figure, CoolSculpting Elite® cryolipolysis is a solution of choice. It makes it possible to eliminate localized excess fat permanently, without social exclusion.

Contraindications

Although CoolSculpting Elite® is an advanced and safe technology, there are some contraindications that need to be considered before any treatment.

• Pregnant or breast-feeding women

Due to hormonal and physiological changes, this treatment is not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

• Cold-related pathologies

Patients with cryoglobulinemia, cold urticaria, or any other condition where cold acts as a trigger factor are not eligible.

• Severe renal or hepatic impairment

To ensure your safety, these conditions require prior medical evaluation.

• Local skin infections

Any active dermatological problem on the area to be treated should be resolved prior to initiating cryolipolysis treatment.

Procedure of the intervention

At Clinique Apogee, each CoolSculpting Elite® session is designed to offer you maximum comfort and efficiency. Our experts adapt the method to your body type and your figure goals.

• Preparing the area to be treated

Before the start of treatment, a specific gel is carefully applied to the targeted area. This protective gel both ensures patient comfort and optimizes the effectiveness of contact with CoolSculpting Elite® applicators.

• Setting up CoolSculpting applicators

Our practitioners use the latest generation of applicators, perfectly adapted to the morphology of each patient. Thanks to a variety of sizes and shapes, they precisely target the fat deposits to be treated, thus guaranteeing a harmonious and balanced result.

• Treatment and sensations experienced

Once the applicators are in place, you will experience a soft suction accompanied by a feeling of intense cold, which subsides over the minutes. This procedure is painless for the majority of patients, although some tingling or numbness may occur.

The results/Before-After

The results of cryolipolysis by CoolSculpting Elite® are gradually revealed over the weeks. The reduction in fat deposits is visible as early as three weeks after treatment, with an optimal effect observed two to three months after the session.

To guarantee a harmonious silhouette in the long term, we encourage a healthy and balanced lifestyle, in line with your aesthetic goals.

Suites

At the end of your session, a manual massage is performed on the treated area in order to maximize the effect of cryolipolysis. You may experience slight redness or temporary numbness, but these effects disappear quickly, allowing you to return to activities with peace of mind.

FAQs

To answer your questions, we have put together clear and precise answers here. Explore our FAQ to discuss your experience with confidence.

Is the CoolSculpting Elite® suitable for all body types?

CoolSculpting Elite® is for people with a stable weight but who want to refine specific areas of their figure. This cryolipolysis treatment targets localized fat deposits, offering a suitable solution even for areas that are difficult to work through exercise. However, it is not a weight loss method for people who are obese.

How many sessions are needed to get a visible result?

The results vary according to each patient and the areas treated. In general, a single session already reduces up to 27% of fat cells in the targeted area. For optimal results, several sessions may be necessary, spaced several weeks apart. A personalized assessment with our experts will allow you to establish the ideal protocol.

How does one feel during the cryolipolysis session?

At the beginning of the session, you will feel a sensation of intense cold and suction on the targeted area. This sensation quickly subsides, giving way to a comfortable experience for most patients. Tingling, slight pressure, or a feeling of numbness may occur but are generally well tolerated.

What are the possible side effects after a CoolSculpting session?

After a CoolSculpting Elite® session, it is possible to experience redness, numbness, or tingling in the treated area. These side effects are temporary and usually go away within a few hours or days. Our team of specialists remains at your disposal to ensure an attentive and personalized follow-up.
