Device Description
The CoolSculpting System by Zeltiq is a portable thermoelectric device designed for both cooling and heating treatments. It consists of a control unit, detachable vacuum and surface applicators, and various supplies such as liners, gel/gelpads, cycle cards, geltraps, gaskets, foam borders, and a securement system.
Indications for Use
The CoolSculpting System is primarily a skin cooling and heating device. It is indicated for cold-assisted lipolysis, which targets the breakdown of fat in specific areas, including:
- Upper arms
- Bra fat
- Back fat
- Banana roll
- Submental area (under the chin)
- Thighs
- Abdomen
- Flanks ("love handles")
This device is suitable for individuals with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or less and is designed to improve the appearance of visible fat bulges in the mentioned areas. When used on the submental area, it can also enhance the appearance of lax tissue.
Additional Uses
Beyond fat reduction, the CoolSculpting System offers several other benefits:
- Minimizes pain and thermal injury during laser and dermatological treatments
- Acts as a local anesthetic for procedures causing minor local discomfort
- Provides localized thermal therapy (hot or cold) to alleviate pain post-trauma and post-surgery
- Offers temporary relief of minor aches, pains, and muscle spasms
The optional massage function can provide temporary relief from minor muscle aches, pains, and spasms, as well as temporary improvement in local circulation and reduction in the appearance of cellulite.
Accessories
The ZELTIQ Pretreatment Skin Wipe and Gel/Gelpad ensure effective thermal contact between the device and the patient’s skin by addressing minor variances in device-to-skin contact.
Conclusion
The Zeltiq CoolSculpting System is a versatile and effective solution for fat reduction and various therapeutic applications, making it an excellent addition to any aesthetic or dermatological practice.
