3 Spots Better Suited to CoolSculpting® Than Liposuction

When it comes to fat reduction, liposuction is no longer your only option. Now, there are many options you can choose from, including non-surgical methods like CoolSculpting®.

It can be difficult for clients to make a decision when considering CoolSculpting vs. lipo. However, it might be as easy as knowing which parts of the body you want to target. Here are three spots that are better addressed by CoolSculpting.

Where All Things Are Pretty Much Equal

In some spots, both CoolSculpting and lipo can deliver incredible results. And these are the areas most people wish to target:

• Abdomen
• Hips
• Love handles
• Muffin tops
• Outer thighs

So when deciding on CoolSculpting vs. lipo for these spots, it’s more a matter of preference and convenience. For example, someone who doesn’t want a recovery period might choose CoolSculpting while a client getting a tummy tuck might wish to add lipo at the same time.

Where CoolSculpting Wins Out

With some fatty spots, CoolSculpting will almost always be the way to go. This can be due to the shape and size of the area, as well as the skin’s elasticity. So, where do we suggest you opt for CoolSculpting over lipo? Here are some common areas for CoolSculpting treatment:

• The inner thighs, due to both the shape and the potential for saggy skin post-lipo.
• The upper thigh beneath the butt, due to the size and the concern of saggy skin.
• Bra line fat, since this is a very limited and specific area.
• The neck and chin, as the thin skin here is more likely to sag.

Of course, every patient is different. To know which option is best for you, it is essential that you schedule a consultation. Contact us online or call us today at 541-687-8900 to learn more about your fat-reducing options.
