How Does CoolSculpting and CoolSculpting Elite Work?
Understanding how CoolSculpting and CoolSculpting Elite work gives insight into the science of cryolipolysis and the precise steps involved in non-invasive fat reduction.
- Fat Targeting & Applicator Placement: A DHA-licensed specialist identifies the treatment area, and then applies the appropriately sized CoolSculpting or Elite applicator to suction and cool the fat layer beneath the skin. This ensures accurate fat targeting without affecting surrounding tissues.
- Controlled Cryolipolysis Activation: The device delivers controlled cooling to freeze fat cells, initiating apoptosis (natural cell death). These crystallized fat cells are then broken down and gradually eliminated by the body’s lymphatic system over time.
- Post-Treatment Massage: After each cycle, the treated area is massaged to improve lymphatic drainage and enhance fat cell breakdown. This step has been shown to improve the overall efficacy of the procedure.
- Natural Elimination & Results: Over the following weeks, the body metabolizes the destroyed fat cells, leading to visible fat reduction. Visible results appear as early as 3 weeks, with peak outcomes at 12 weeks, depending on the individual’s metabolism and the area treated.

I've been coming to The Nova Clinic Al Wasl Branch for laser hair removal and really happy with the results I'm getting. Shoutout to Dr. Saima, she's so sweet, very detailed and professional when it comes to explaining the procedures and whats best for me, and a shoutout to her nurse Rachel too. The only thing is that sometimes it's quite difficult to change or book appointments if I want to book something soon, which makes me have to wait a long time. However overall, I would definitely recommend this clinic to others!Fatma Hassan

She is very professional and walked me through what would happen and how long it would last. During the treatment she talked about what she was applying and how it would affect my skin . Over all a great experience and I would definitely recommend Jessica and the Nova Clinic.Lisa Hamilton

It was my first time at the Nova clinic and I was pleasantly impressed. A very beautiful, spacious and clean place with excellent service and professional specialists. I came for a procedure with cosmetologist Natalya and she selected a treatment for me based on my skin type and according to my recommendations, we did peeling and lifting of the lower part of the face, everything went as comfortable and pleasant as possible) After the procedure, my face was shining and looked very fresh, and after a few days I began to receive a million compliments that I began to look much better and that something had changed noticeably, this cannot please me either when in the morning I saw an even tone and a toned face. In general, I am very pleased and recommend Natalia as a specialist in caring for your face.Diana Gorbacheva

I did an enzyme facial last week at NOVA clinic, It was amazing,Christine was amazing and very gentle and the atmosphere of the room is very relaxing. The facial was kind of uncomfortable because it stings BUT after the results of the facial after 2 days i forgot about the unpleasant itches during the facial. Everyone told me im glowing which is why im going to do the facial again very soon! Plus it seemed like it reduced visible fine lines/wrinkles. I highly recommend this facial and clinic, as it's very clean and welcoming.Dunia hasbini

She creates really natural, beautiful brows. I highly recommend her!Kashan baba
