Non-Invasive Fat Reduction in Denver
Sculpt Your Ideal Body with CoolSculpting Elite
We all have those stubborn areas of fat that just won't budge, no matter how many changes we make to our lifestyle. It can be incredibly frustrating to put in the work and not see the results you expect in the mirror. Whether it's a "muffin top," "love handles," or a double chin, these pockets of fat can affect how your clothes fit and how confident you feel in your own skin. For many women in the Denver metro area, surgery isn't the right path—they want effective results without the downtime, scars, or risks associated with invasive procedures.

What is CoolSculpting Elite and How Does it Work?
CoolSculpting Elite is the latest advancement in cryolipolysis technology, a non-invasive method for reducing fat. The concept is based on the science that fat cells are more susceptible to cold than other types of tissue. During the treatment, a specialized applicator is placed on the target area, delivering controlled cooling that safely freezes fat cells underneath the skin without damaging the skin itself or the surrounding tissues.
Once the fat cells are frozen (crystallized), they die. Over the following weeks and months, your body naturally processes these dead cells and eliminates them through its standard metabolic waste processes. The result is a permanent reduction in the number of fat cells in the treated area. The "Elite" system features redesigned applicators that fit the body's natural curves better and cover up to 18% more skin surface area than the original devices. This means treatments are more effective, more comfortable, and can treat two areas at once (DualSculpting), saving you valuable time.
Which Areas Can Be Treated?
This technology is incredibly versatile and is FDA-cleared to treat visible fat bulges in nine different areas of the body. Common trouble spots include the submental area (under the chin), thigh, abdomen, and flank (love handles), along with bra fat, back fat, underneath the buttocks (also known as the banana roll), and upper arms.
At ASD of Cherry Creek, Dr. Stewart assesses your specific concerns to determine if CoolSculpting Elite is the right tool for your goals. Because the Elite system has smaller, C-shaped applicators, it is particularly effective at contouring difficult-to-reach areas with greater precision. Whether you are looking to define your waistline, slim down your arms for sleeveless dresses, or eliminate a double chin, this technology allows for a highly customized approach to body sculpting.
Can CoolSculpting Be Combined with Other Treatments?
Absolutely. In fact, many of our patients achieve their best results by combining fat reduction with muscle toning. At ASD of Cherry Creek, we often recommend pairing CoolSculpting with Emsculpt, another non-invasive body contouring treatment. While CoolSculpting freezes and eliminates fat, Emsculpt uses electromagnetic energy to stimulate powerful muscle contractions that build muscle and burn fat simultaneously.
Combining these therapies provides a comprehensive "sculpt and tone" approach. For example, a patient might use CoolSculpting Elite to reduce the fat layer on their abdomen and then use Emsculpt to define the underlying abdominal muscles for a firmer, more athletic look. Dr. Stewart’s expertise allows her to design a holistic treatment plan that addresses multiple layers of body composition—fat and muscle—to maximize your aesthetic outcome. This combination is particularly popular among our patients aged 40-70 who want to restore firmness and contour that age may have diminished.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Treatment Safe and Who Performs It?
Safety is a top priority at our practice. CoolSculpting is an FDA-cleared procedure with a well-established safety profile and millions of treatments performed worldwide. However, the skill of the provider matters significantly for both safety and aesthetic results. At ASD of Cherry Creek, you are under the care of Dr. Adrienne Stewart, a board-certified dermatologist who teaches at the University of Colorado.
While many clinics delegate body contouring entirely to assistants, Dr. Stewart oversees all treatment plans to ensure they are medically appropriate for you. She utilizes advanced technology to monitor your progress and ensure precision. Our practice is equipped to handle your care with the highest medical standards, unlike non-medical facilities where oversight may be lacking. We ensure that the cooling is delivered precisely where it is needed, minimizing risks and ensuring a smooth, natural-looking reduction in fat.
What Should I Expect During and After the Procedure?
A CoolSculpting Elite session is relatively straightforward and comfortable. After the applicator is applied, you will feel an intense cold sensation for the first few minutes, which typically subsides as the area becomes numb. Patients experience chilling and will provide blankets for those cases. During the treatment, many of our patients read, check emails, or even take a nap. Because the Elite system allows us to treat two areas simultaneously, your appointment time is efficient.
There is little to no downtime associated with the procedure. You may experience some temporary redness, swelling, blanching, bruising, firmness, tingling, stinging, tenderness, cramping, aching, itching, or skin sensitivity, but these effects generally resolve on their own. You can typically return to your normal activities immediately, including work and exercise. Results begin to show as early as three weeks after treatment, with the most dramatic changes appearing after two months as your body flushes out the fat cells.
How Much Does CoolSculpting Elite Cost?
The CoolSculpting Elite cost varies depending on your personal goals and the number of areas being treated. Since body contouring is highly individualized—one person may need only a small reduction under the chin while another desires a full transformation of the abdomen and flanks—pricing is determined during your consultation.
At ASD of Cherry Creek, we believe in providing exceptional value through superior results and medical safety. While you may find bargain pricing at chain clinics, the expertise of a board-certified dermatologist ensures that your investment yields the beautiful, natural contours you desire. We provide a clear, customized quote before any treatment begins, so you know exactly what to expect. Investing in CoolSculpting Elite Denver at our practice means investing in quality, safety, and the area’s best expertise.
