Zeltiq shrinks upper arm fat
Zeltiq works very well for stubborn upper arm fat. Typically, about 20-25% of the fat that gets sucked into the applicator slowly disappears over several weeks to months. If the overlying skin is loose, however, laser liposuction might be a better alternative because it tightens the skin more than zeltiq can.
Another alternative is an arm lift (brachioplasty), which gets rid of skin AND fat, but it leaves a scar. Ultimately, a consultation is the best way to know what procedure will best meet your goals in terms of outcome, downtime and cost. (Melissa Chiang, MD, FAAD, Houston Dermatologic Surgeon)
Upper arm fat may work for Zeltiq
First, keep in mind this is fat reduction and not skin tightening. If you have moderate to severe loose skin, I would not try this. If one of the 3 treatment heads will fit the arm, it can be done.
You will have to have your physician ” size you up” and evaluate the skin. (Barry E. DiBernardo, MD, Montclair Plastic Surgeon)
CoolSculpting can be used to remove fat in the upper arms. Zeltiq recently introduced the CoolPetite, which was designed specifically for the arms.
An experienced provider will be able to determine which applicator(s) size is appropriate for your arms, and can customize your treatment to your specific desires/needs. (Melanie L. Petro, MD, Birmingham Facial Plastic Surgeon)
CoolSculpting has an applicator for upper arm fat! This is a common place to have the procedure done, for some it’s called “bat wings,” and nobody likes that.
This is a perfect place to see great results and begin to expose your arms again.
The same science still applies. The amount of tissue may or may not be as much as an abdomen but every BODY is different and the amount of reduction is usually guaranteed to be 20 – 25%. (Rosalind Jackson, MD, Miamisburg OB-GYN)
Coolsculpting for the upper arms
Absolutely, depending on if you are a candidate for Coolsculpting. There are 29 million people in the U. S. interested in CoolSculpting, with more than 14 million expressing concern about unwanted arm fat, making arms the third most popular area for consideration of non-invasive fat reduction.
Zeltiq has now released the CoolAdvantage Petite applicator for the CoolSculpting system in order to optimize the performance of CoolSculpting in the upper arms. The newest member of the CoolAdvantage family of applicators, the CoolAdvantage Petite treatment comes with two interchangeable contours designed to uniquely treat the upper arm area in just 35 minutes.
It is a safe effective way to lose unwanted arm fat, with no down time. A certified Coolsculpting office can give you a consult to determine the best transformation plan for you. (Jennifer Cova, DO, Dayton Physician)
