CoolSculpting Elite At CARE

At CARE, our CoolSculpting® Elite providers are certified through CoolSculpting University and expertly trained to deliver safe, effective, and customized body contouring treatments. At CARE, we have two of the latest CoolSculpting Elite machines so we can treat up to four areas at once, saving you time. Whether you’re looking to feel more confident in your favorite clothes or finally target stubborn areas that resist diet and exercise, our team will guide you through your personalized plan.

Top Benefits of CoolSculpting Elite for Stubborn Fat Reduction

If you are dealing with stubborn fat that just will not budge, no matter how much you diet or exercise, CoolSculpting® Elite might be the solution you have been looking for. This noninvasive fat freezing procedure uses controlled cooling to target and reduce fat cells in specific areas of the body, without surgery or downtime. CoolSculpting specifically targets subcutaneous fat, which is the fat located just beneath the skin. That means you can fit a session into your day and get right back to your normal routine.

One of the biggest perks of CoolSculpting® Elite is that it’s FDA-cleared and clinically proven to reduce fat in treated areas by up to 20–25% after just one session. Whether you’re bothered by stubborn belly fat, love handles, bra rolls or thigh bulges, CoolSculpting can help contour those problem spots and deliver long-lasting results – without surgery or downtime.

CoolSculpting is also FDA-cleared for treatment of both the inner and outer thighs, making it an effective option for reducing fat bulges and improving body contours in one of the most common trouble areas.

What Areas Can Be Addressed?

CoolSculpting can treat a wide range of areas on the body where stubborn fat tends to accumulate. Popular treatment areas include:

• Abdomen
• Flanks or love handles
• Inner and outer thighs
• Upper arms (including the upper arm as a specific FDA-cleared area)
• Back fat and bra bulge
• Under the chin and jawline
• Under the buttocks or banana roll

What to Expect From Your CoolSculpting Elite Experience

Who is a Good Candidate for CoolSculpting Elite?

CoolSculpting is designed for men and women who are at or near their ideal body weight but have isolated pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. The best candidates are in good overall health, able to maintain a stable weight, and have realistic expectations about their results. Meeting these criteria helps ensure CoolSculpting is both safe and effective.

It is important to understand that CoolSculpting is not a weight loss solution, but rather a body sculpting treatment to refine and contour specific areas.

During your consultation at CARE Plastic Surgery in Cary, our experienced team will evaluate your goals to determine if CoolSculpting is the right fit for you.

Reduce excess fat without interrupting your busy life.

Many people have fat that won’t budge no matter how hard they work in the gym. CoolSculpting Elite can help take care of what diet and exercise do not. Both men and women can find benefits from CoolSculpting Elite non-surgical fat loss. CoolSculpting Elite provides a long-lasting reduction for unwanted bulges by freezing the fat until it breaks down, so your body can eliminate it naturally. Your skin, muscle, and other tissues stay healthy and unharmed.

No surgery, quick treatment, and little to no downtime.

In fact, it’s so easy that most patients read, work on their laptops, or just have a cat-nap while the CoolSculpting Elite device does its work. After your treatment, you can return to your busy day with no downtime. You’ll see results in as little as 3 weeks, as your body naturally gets rid of destroyed fat cells in the treated area. After 1-3 months, you’ll notice an impressive fat reduction and feel great about how much slimmer you look and feel.

CoolSculpting vs. Liposuction: Which Is Right for You?

CoolSculpting and liposuction are both fat reduction treatments, but they differ in method and recovery. CoolSculpting is nonsurgical and ideal for those seeking subtle contouring without downtime. Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes larger volumes of fat and may be better suited for patients wanting more dramatic results, especially in larger areas.

CoolSculpting is more suitable for smaller, localized fat deposits, while liposuction can address larger areas of fat more effectively. The right choice depends on your goals, lifestyle and how much fat you want to remove. At CARE Plastic Surgery, we offer both treatments and can help you determine which one will best meet your needs.

Does CoolSculpting Work After Weight Loss or Ozempic (GLP-1)?

CoolSculpting can be an excellent way to fine-tune your results after weight loss or the use of medications like Ozempic. While these treatments help reduce overall body fat, they don’t always target the small, stubborn pockets of fat that remain – or address changes in skin firmness and laxity that can follow significant weight reduction.

That’s where CoolSculpting comes in. This treatment is designed specifically to sculpt lingering fat deposits, helping you achieve a more defined look. Think of it as the finishing touch to all the hard work you’ve already put in.

It’s important to note that while CoolSculpting permanently reduces fat in treated areas, it does not tighten loose or stretched skin. For patients with skin laxity, complementary treatments such as BodyTite® (for skin tightening and fat contraction) or Morpheus8® (for collagen stimulation and skin remodeling) may be recommended to enhance your results.

At CARE Plastic Surgery, our team takes a personalized approach, assessing your body’s new contours and tailoring a treatment plan that blends the right technologies to help you look and feel your best.

What to Expect From Your CoolSculpting Results Timeline

CoolSculpting works by gradually freezing and eliminating fat cells, which your body then processes and removes naturally. Results typically start to appear within three to four weeks, with full results visible after about two to three months.

 It is important to schedule a follow-up appointment to assess your results, monitor your progress and determine if additional treatments are needed. We will guide you through the timeline and monitor your progress to ensure your treatment is both safe and successful.

How Many CoolSculpting Sessions Will I Need?

One of the most common questions we receive is how many sessions are needed for the best results with CoolSculpting ELITE. While the exact number varies depending on your treatment goals, the area being treated, and how your body responds, most patients see noticeable improvement after just one session.

For optimal results, three treatment sessions are typically recommended. The number and frequency of sessions can significantly impact your outcome, which is why it’s important to have a personalized plan.

During your consultation, our providers will evaluate your goals and create a customized treatment plan tailored to your body and aesthetic needs. We’ll guide you through every step to ensure your CoolSculpting journey is as effective and efficient as possible.

Is CoolSculpting Permanent? Understanding Long-Term Results.

CoolSculpting provides long-term results because it permanently destroys fat cells in the treated areas. Once eliminated, those fat cells do not regenerate. However, if you gain weight in the future, the remaining fat cells in your body can still expand, which may affect your outcome.

Maintaining a stable weight with healthy eating and regular activity is key to preserving your results. With proper care and lifestyle habits, many patients enjoy the benefits of CoolSculpting for years to come.

How Much Does CoolSculpting Cost, and Is Financing Available?

CoolSculpting costs vary based on the size of the treatment area, the number of sessions needed, your individual goals, and even your height and body proportions. For example, a taller patient may have a larger treatment surface than a shorter patient in the same body area, which can influence the number of applicators and sessions required.

During your consultation, our team will create a personalized treatment plan and provide a detailed quote tailored to your needs.

At CARE, we offer SculptPackages starting at $2,350, designed to give you the comprehensive number of treatments needed for lasting results. This “treat to complete” philosophy makes your investment more predictable – ensuring you receive the full number of sessions required to get the results you want, rather than piecemeal treatments that may leave you short of your goals.

We also offer flexible financing options, including third-party payment plans and the Allē Payment Plan, to make your investment easier and more accessible. This plan allows you to pay over time – with many patients qualifying for promotional 0% APR offers – and it uses a soft credit check, meaning your score won’t be impacted. Best of all, you can move forward with treatments without having to cover the full cost up front.

Even better, you’ll earn Allē points with every CoolSculpting Elite treatment. These points can be redeemed toward SkinMedica® medical-grade products or applied to other popular services like BOTOX®, Juvéderm®, or a DiamondGlow® facial.

During your consultation, our team will create a personalized plan tailored to your body and walk you through every pricing and payment option, including Allē, so you feel confident and comfortable moving forward with your treatment.
