CoolSculpting Elite is the newest version of CoolSculpting. A lot of patients are asking “what’s the difference between CoolSculpting and CoolSculpting Elite”? Well, there are many similarities, but there are also a few key differences.
As a reminder, CoolSculpting is the service that provides both suction and cold to basically freeze off fat. It has been the leading treatment for reduction of fat in the area of non invasives.
CoolSculpting Elite in Chicago, IL takes things to a whole other level. Some of the drawbacks of CoolSculpting when it first came out was that the suction didn’t work for every type of patient and the cooling wasn’t quite intense enough. As CoolSculpting has evolved as a platform, the newer version of CoolSculpting Elite now has the coldest temperature and the most powerful suction.
What I’ve noticed since I’ve had both treatments done myself is that the intensity of CoolSculpting Elite provides patients with a better treatment earlier on and is overall a superior treatment to CoolSculpting. I like both of them, but CoolSculpting Elite is for patients who want that extra difference. We use CoolSculpting Elite in our Chicago, IL office in the River North neighborhood.

Yes, CoolSculpting Elite is considered safe and FDA-approved for body contouring purposes. The technology is non-invasive, meaning there are no incisions, needles, or anesthesia required. Side effects are generally mild and temporary, such as redness, swelling, and numbness at the treatment site.
Dr. Anil Shah upgraded to CoolSculpting Elite because I found that through my own research and talking with my colleagues, this was a superior product than standard CoolSculpting. I like both, but I think CoolSculpting Elite is an improvement.
No, it does not hurt. Most patients experience a sensation of intense cold during the first few minutes of the procedure. This feeling usually subsides as the area becomes numb. The treatment itself is generally well-tolerated, and many patients read, watch videos, or relax during the session.
With CoolSculpting Elite, you have two applicators instead of one. So patients can do treatments twice as fast and therefore see results faster. Hence the term CoolSculpting Elite
CoolSculpting Elite is best suited for individuals who have noticeable bulges or areas of unwanted fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. It is not a weight-loss solution and is not recommended for individuals with obesity. A consultation with a qualified CoolSculpting provider is essential to determine if you are a suitable candidate.
Yes, you can. Almost all of our patients are active the same day. You are not limited like you are with other invasive procedures like liposuction.
The duration of a CoolSculpting Elite session depends on the number of areas being treated simultaneously. Typically, each treatment cycle takes around 35 to 75 minutes. Multiple areas can be treated during the same session.
Results from CoolSculpting Elite are not immediate, as it takes time for the body to eliminate the frozen fat cells naturally. You may begin to notice improvements as early as three weeks after treatment, with the most dramatic results appearing after two to three months.
Yes, the fat cells eliminated during a CoolSculpting Elite treatment are gone for good. Once they are destroyed and removed by the body, they do not regenerate.
However, it’s essential to maintain a healthy lifestyle to prevent new fat cells from developing in untreated areas.
The number of sessions required varies depending on individual body goals and the amount of fat to be treated. Many people achieve their desired results with just one session, while others may need multiple treatments to target different areas effectively.
CoolSculpting Elite is generally well-tolerated, and the side effects are minimal. Temporary side effects may include redness, bruising, swelling, numbness, and mild discomfort at the treatment site. Serious complications are rare but can be discussed during the consultation.
Absolutely! CoolSculpting Elite is a non-surgical procedure that requires no downtime. You can resume your daily activities immediately after the session.
