Better outcome! We believe that combining fat reduction with muscle tightening, such as abdominal muscles, greatly improves the overall satisfaction of our patients compared to receiving each treatment alone.
It’s Cool to Flex if you have stubborn areas of fat that don’t respond to diet and exercise. These treatments are not for weight loss but to reshape, tighten and sculpt your body. Women will often choose these treatments post-pregnancy or when menopause sets in. For men, their desire is to return to having that “V shape” and have a leaner waist with improved muscle definition.
CoolSculpting® and truSculpt® flex are two complementary body sculpting technologies, each targeting different aspects of body reshaping. Opting for both treatments in combination can offer a holistic approach to body sculpting — reducing unwanted fat and simultaneously enhancing muscle definition for a more toned and defined appearance. This combo is particularly beneficial for individuals close to their ideal body weight but looking to refine and enhance their physique.
Individuals who might benefit more from just one treatment could choose CoolSculpting® if their primary concern is reducing fat or truSculpt® flex if they are more focused on muscle toning and definition. For more detailed information, read our CoolSculpting® and truSculpt® flex treatment pages.
First, you can book a complimentary body assessment with one of our Treatment Designers to create a body transformation plan combining CoolSculpting® and truSculpt® flex.
Combining CoolSculpting® and truSculpt® flex in a body transformation plan leverages the strengths of both treatments to achieve comprehensive results. Initially, CoolSculpting® targets and reduces the "squishy fat" by freezing and destroying fat cells in areas like the abdomen, thighs, and arms.
Once the unwanted fat is addressed, truSculpt® flex tones and strengthens muscles. This sequential approach ensures that fat reduction is complemented by muscle enhancement, providing a sculpted and more defined body contour. Depending on the area treated, we may combine the treatments in one session. However, they are typically done 2-5 days apart.
This is because the sessions for this combined treatment are structured to maximize results while ensuring safety and comfort. A typical CoolSculpting® session lasts about 35 minutes per treated area, during which you might feel a cooling sensation as the device works to freeze fat cells. There's minimal discomfort and no downtime, allowing you to return to daily activities immediately.
After the recommended number of CoolSculpting® sessions, it’s time for truSculpt® flex sessions to begin, each lasting about 45 minutes. During truSculpt® flex treatments, you'll experience intense muscle contractions and a warming sensation as the device targets and stimulates muscle groups such as the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, or arms. These sessions are designed to build muscle mass and increase definition, complementing the fat loss achieved with CoolSculpting®.
CoolSculpting® is Health Canada-approved to treat nine different areas of the body: visible bulges under the chin and jawline, inner and outer thighs, abdomen, love handles, bra fat, axillary puffs, underneath the buttocks, and upper arms. CoolSculpting® is ideal for reducing stubborn fat pockets by freezing fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated from the body. This treatment is particularly beneficial for those looking to address specific fat areas without surgery.
This procedure, which targets fat cells with frigid temperatures, is known medically as cryolipolysis. These fat cells are more prone to freezing; at a certain temperature, they freeze, while the water-based cells do not. Over two to six months, your body gradually eliminates the dead fat cells, allowing for a 20–25% reduction in fat in the treated area.
