Coolsculpting For Back Fat
Coolsculpting works on back fat, bra fat, love handles, flanks, abdomen and a number of other problem areas. If the fat can fit in the applicator, coolsculpting can reduce the fat. Each treatment takes one hour per area and permanently removes 20-25% of the fat per treatment.
CoolSculpting® involves No needles, No Cutting, No Downtime, NO garments, No need for anesthesia or pain medications and there is no recovery time. (Stanley Okoro, MD, Atlanta Plastic Surgeon)
Coolsculpting can dramatically improve the contour of the back if:
1) The skin laxity is minimal
2) There are discreet pinchable regions of the back that can be drawn into the applicator
I would visit with a plastic surgeon who has incorporated Coolsculpting into their practice so you can get an assessment of whether Coolsculpting or liposuction would be a better option for you. (Young R. Cho, MD, PhD, Houston Plastic Surgeon)
Coolsculpting is a painless, non-invasive way to freeze away what I call back rolls. Those are the annoying areas where you see under a bra when you wear a t-shirt.
The typical applicator for this area is the medium applicator per each roll. Each treatment takes one hour per area and permanently removes 20-25% of the fat per treatment.
We just attach the applicator and you watch a movie! You will see the result as soon as 3 wks and ideally a second treatment at 2 months is you add the percentage loss! (Grace Liu, MD, Newport Beach Dermatologic Surgeon)
Coolsculpting is great for back fat
We have had great results with Zeltiq Coolsculpting for back fat, bra fat, love handles, flanks, abdomen and a number of other problem areas that people dread.
For the problem areas we all have that can be resilient to diet and exercise, we have had excellent results with Coolsculpting.
It seems there is almost always someone hooked up the machine! Most patients require 2-3 treatments approximately 2 months apart.
If the area that bothers you is large enough to fit into the suction chamber then you are most likely a candidate for the procedure. (Grant Stevens, MD, Los Angeles Plastic Surgeon)
Back fat is a great target for Coolsculpting
The ideal treatment areas for Coolsculpting are love handles, abdomen and back fat although almost any area can potentially be treated. The key is that the area of desired treatment and the handpiece need to “fit” (there are currently 3 handpieces with more to come).
Back fat areas generally “fit” very well. You can expect up to a 25% reduction in the fat layer with just one treatment. And I might add that this treatment really is pain free and easy with no downtime so getting a second treatment is not a big deal if you need it. (Susan Van Dyke, MD, Paradise Valley Dermatologic Surgeon)
Cool sculpting works for back fat
Coolsculpting definitely works. We use it in our practice and have seen consistently excellent results. Key is realistic expectations.
It is not liposuction but is non invasive and results consistently in 20-25 % reduction in fat layer of treated area. (Steven Hacker, MD, West Palm Beach Dermatologic Surgeon)
CoolSculpting and Back Fat
Provided that the back fat is not too fibrous with increased collagen bands within the fat pockets, and that an applicator can fit well with good suction, then the fat may respond well to this off-label procedure. (Ronald Shelton, MD, Manhattan Dermatologic Surgeon)
CoolSculpting by Zeltiq for bra or back fat
We have had experience with Zeltiq Coolsculpting for several years since we were involved with the clinical trials for FDA clearance.
Bra fat or back fat responds very well when Zeltiq applicator applied correctly. We see at least 50% reduction in fat.
Coolsculpting also works well for muffin top or flanks (FDA cleared indication) and belly fat. Our patients are typically very satisfied with results. (Robert A. Weiss, MD, Baltimore Dermatologic Surgeon)
Coolsculpting and back fat
Coolsculpting does work on back fat, bra fat, etc. Usually a couple of treatments are necessary to get the results and the treatments are normally 8 weeks apart. (Tom J. Pousti, MD, FACS, San Diego Plastic Surgeon)
Dependent on Area of Back to Be Treated
CoolSculpting® is FDA-cleared for non-surgical fat reduction of the hips, abdomen, and flanks. Depending on which area of the back to which you’re referring and how much excess fat you have, CoolSculpting® may be a good option.
Most CoolSculpting® patients report a 20% fat reduction of the treatment area with one session. (C. Edwin Pittman, MD, Athens Plastic Surgeon)
