Elite CoolSculpting in Northbrook, IL

We recommend waiting at least six months after giving birth or until your body has stabilized post-pregnancy before considering Elite CoolSculpting. A consultation will help determine the right timing based on your personal recovery.

Elite CoolSculpting targets fat cells but is not designed to reduce the appearance of cellulite. However, we can recommend complementary treatments that are better suited for improving skin texture.

There is no specific age limit, but patients must be over 18. The most important factors are overall health and having enough subcutaneous fat in the treatment areas for the applicators to target effectively.

Elite CoolSculpting focuses on fat reduction and does not significantly tighten skin. For patients concerned about skin laxity, we may recommend pairing it with skin-tightening procedures such as Morpheus8 or BodyTite.

Yes, most patients return to their regular activities, including workouts, immediately after treatment. Mild soreness or sensitivity in the treated area is possible but typically doesn't interfere with exercise.

Most implants, such as breast or orthopedic devices, do not interfere with Elite CoolSculpting, as the treatment targets fat just under the skin. However, a full medical history review is required to ensure safety.

Some patients see excellent results from one session, while others benefit from a series of treatments depending on the area and their goals. We will create a custom approach during your consultation.
