Earlier in March, I shared about My CoolSculpting Experience with Elissa Medical Clinic [Part 1], in this post, I would be sharing the process and the results after three months!
Dr. Winston Lin prescribed four CoolAdvantage sessions to treat the bulging stubborn fat at my tummy. The CoolAdvantage range of applicators under the CoolSculpting family reduces treatment time by nearly half compared to legacy CoolSculpting applicators.
For instance, treatment time with traditional CoolSculpting applicators takes 60 mins but this is reduced to 35 mins with the CoolAdvantage applicator. This meant that my treatment was completed in 2 hrs 20 mins instead of the 4 hrs it would have taken with legacy CoolSculpting applicators.
Another benefit of the CoolAdvantage applicator is the enhanced cup design for improved patient comfort as well as a larger cooling area to treat a bigger area.
Before treatment, Dr. Winston Lin first used the CoolAdvantage templates to mark out the areas that required treatment. To be honest, I was really embarrassed about showing my bulging fats, Dr. Winston could easily pinched a huge pocket of it.
Before putting on the applicator, the clinic assistant then applied gel
pads onto the treatment area first to protect the skin during treatment.
The process did not put me into any discomfort, I had some moments to catch a wink for a quick recharge and got to 'work' on my phone in total peace while freezing my fat cells.
After the removal of applicator, the treated area seemed to look like a 'cake'.
The clinic assistant would massage the treated area, to help break down the crystallised dead fat cells, which will be passed out
by the body naturally.

For me, it took me slightly more than 1.5 months for the numbness on the treated area to be gone. There was also no down-time period, I was able to function as per normal. I hope this post has been useful in helping you decide if you would like to try out CoolSculpting but do also keep in mind to eat healthily too! I have lost 1.5 kg after three months after cutting down carbs for dinner and late night snacking. My current weight is now 51kg and probably another 1 kg off, that will be my ideal weight.
