More Efficient Fat Reduction: Discover CoolSculpting Elite at SkinCare Physicians

Published on Apr 9th, 2026 by Jeffrey Dover, MD

Dr Dover with the CoolSculpting Elite deviceSkincare Physicians’ dermatologists have been at the forefront of the most exciting development in noninvasive body contouring. Invented in Boston in the Department of Dermatology at Harvard Medical School, CoolSculpting which uses cold to selectively eliminate unwanted fat, was pioneered at SkinCare Physicians where the national FDA approval trials were directed and performed. Since its approval, our physicians have remained deeply involved in perfecting the technique. Today, they are thrilled to offer the CoolSculpting Elite technology, one of the most significant recent advancements.

What’s new with CoolSculpting Elite

The Elite applicators are C-shaped rather than the older U-shaped design and come in seven different shapes and sizes. The C-shape design better conforms to the body’s natural curves, resulting in less tissue squeezing, improved comfort, and better cooling contact. Elite applicators can cover up to 18% more skin surface than previously, allowing larger treatment areas to be treated more rapidly. The device also features built-in dual-sculpting (2 applicators operating simultaneously), so 2 areas can be treated effectively at the same time. With applicators designed to fit a variety of body areas, we can treat almost every part of the body from the neck and jaw line to bra fat, excess breast tissue in men, all areas of the belly (flanks and love handles), hips, inner and outer thighs, and knees.
