Sculpsure-vs-Coolsculpting

Coolsculpting | SeaMist MedSpa in Rhode Island

We all agree that the best and healthiest way to lose weight and get rid of stubborn fat is with a healthy diet and exercise. But sometimes, that is just not enough. Maybe you need to lose weight in a short period for that special event, or your stubborn fat remains despite your healthy diet. Luckily, you have two great, non-invasive body contouring treatments at your disposal. This article will compare Sculpsure vs. CoolSculpting and help you decide which one is just the perfect one for you.

Coolsculpting

What is SculpSure?

Sculpsure is a new innovative fat reduction procedure that safely removes unwanted fat deposits. Sculpsure uses a revolutionary new fat reduction technology called ultrasound lipolysis. Ultrasound lipolysis uses high-frequency sound waves (laser technology) to break down fat cells into glycerol and free fatty acids. The result of these laser treatments is an immediate reduction in localized fat and a long-lasting effect on overall body contour.

What is Coolsculpting?

CoolSculpting is a non-invasive procedure that uses controlled cooling to eliminate fat cells underneath the skin without harming the overlying tissue. It uses a suction-based applicator to freeze the fat. This effective treatment can be used for skin tightening in areas like the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, chin, arms, knees, ankles, calves, breasts, back, neck, face, hands, feet, and even the bra line.

SculpSure vs CoolSculpting‏

‏Sculpsure and CoolSculpting are both popular treatments that are a great alternative to liposuction. That’s because they don’t require surgery and have no post-procedure recovery time. If you want to reduce stubborn fat, here’s what you need to know to decide which procedure is proper for you depending on your body type, target areas, and other factors.‏

‏What’s the Technology Behind SculpSure and CoolSculpting?‏

‏SculpSure and CoolSculpting are lipolysis technologies that eliminate stubborn fat deposits by breaking them down into their constituent components. This technology works because fat cells can be liquefied or melted using laser technology (Sculpsure). ‏

‏Alternatively, reduction of fat can be achieved by controlled freezing (CoolSculpting). In both instances, the destroyed fat cells are then slowly eliminated from the body over time. Lipolysis procedures like CoolScupting and Sculpsure are better options than liposuction, which requires making incisions on the skin to suck out fat cells.‏

How CoolSculpting Works

SculpSure vs. CoolSculpting‏

‏Below we will list the main differences and similarities between Sculpsure and CoolSculpting:‏

‏Similarities Between Sculpsure and CoolSculpting:‏

  • ‏FDA approval.‏ ‏ Both Sculpsure and CoolScupting are FDA–approved body contouring procedures. ‏
  • ‏Lipolysis technology. ‏These two procedures eliminate resistant fat by breaking it down into fatty acids – a process known as lipolysis. Once the dead fat cells are eliminated from the body, they don’t come back.‏
  • ‏Time for results to show.‏ ‏ Whether you opt for SculpSure or CoolSculpting, results can take as long as twelve weeks after treatment to show. That’s because the dead fat cells are slowly eliminated from the body via the lymphatic system.‏
  • ‏Safety. ‏ ‏SculpSure and CoolSculpting are both safe procedures because they don’t harm the surrounding skin or tissues. ‏

‏Differences Between Sculpsure and CoolScupting‏

  • ‏Treatment method.‏ ‏ SculpSure uses advanced laser heat technology to liquefy fat cells. During the procedure, flat applicators are placed on the treatment areas. On the other hand, CoolScupting is a fat-freezing procedure that uses suction applicators instead of flat applicators.‏
  • ‏Treatment areas. ‏ ‏With Sculpsure, you can treat a maximum of four areas in one single session, while with CoolScupting, you can only treat a single area per session.‏
  • ‏Treatment sessions and treatment time.‏ ‏ A single Sculpsure procedure lasts for 25 minutes, while a single CoolScupting Procedure can last between 35-60 minutes (or longer).‏
  • ‏Comfort level.‏ ‏ Sculpsure tends to be more comfortable because of the alternating heating and cooling cycles. CoolSculpting uses a suction applicator on the skin, which can result in minor side effects if you have sensitive skin. Those include bruising, tenderness, and minimal discomfort.
  • ‏Ideal Candidates.‏ ‏ Because CoolSculpting uses suctioning applicators, the perfect candidate must have pinchable fat. However, Sculpsure tends to work for anyone who needs to get rid of fat resistant to diet and exercise.‏
  • ‏Effectiveness.‏ ‏ Based on surveys and studies on each procedure, Sculpsure destroys up to 24% of fat cells and has a 96% patient satisfaction rate. CoolSculpting destroys up to 23% of fat cells and has a 73% satisfaction rate.‏
  • ‏Research.‏ ‏ CoolSculpting has a longer track record because it received FDA approval earlier. Therefore, it’s easier to find more scientific evidence behind the effectiveness of fat-freezing procedures.‏

‏Which Method Of Body Contouring Is Right for You?‏

Both Sculpsure and Coolsculpting are very popular procedures. They are both non-invasive procedures that offer effective body contouring treatments.

‏As you can see, there are plenty of differences and similarities between Sculpsure and CoolSculpting to mull over. In a nutshell, Sculpsure is an excellent option because it can treat more than one area at once, and the sessions are shorter. Coolsculpting is also a great option if you have pinchable body fat and would like to target a specific body area.
