Coolsculpting Elite FAQs
The cost for CoolSculpting Elite St. Louis treatments varies based on location and provider. The number of treatments you receive and the total treatment area size can also impact how much you’ll pay. However, the average cost for a single CoolSculpting treatment ranges between $2,000 and $4,000.
Due to its noninvasive nature, CoolSculpting Elite has a low risk of serious side effects. The most common side effects are mild, including localized redness, swelling, and tissue sensitivity. In rare cases, paradoxical fat hyperplasia can occur. This is when treatment causes more fat cells in the targeted area instead of reducing them. Surgery may be necessary to remove excessive fat cells from paradoxical fat hyperplasia.
Most people get exceptional results after just one CoolSculpting Elite session. However, some people may want to receive up to three sessions for each targeted area. We’ll help determine how many treatments will best help you reach your aesthetic goals.
