Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study aims to generate data that conveys participant's experiences such as their satisfaction with treatment delivered by the redesigned CoolSculpting® Elite system for non-invasive fat reduction in the midsection area (abdomen and flanks) in addition to optional body areas of upper arms, inner thighs, outer thighs and/or submental area. By doing this, the study will provide insights for doctors to better inform participants about the expected outcomes when one or more body areas are considered for treatment.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: CoolSculpting® Elite System

Participants received up to two CoolSculpting® Elite treatment sessions for the abdomen and flanks plus optional additional body areas 8 weeks apart. At the investigator's discretion, per treatment session, up to 8 treatment cycles were performed for the midsection, and if applicable, up to 2 treatment cycles for the submental area, up to 4 cycles to upper arms, and up to 4 cycles each to inner and/or outer thighs.

Device: CoolSculpting® Elite System with CoolSculpting® Elite applicators
A treatment session is comprised of timed segments of cooling (treatment cycles) followed by 2 minutes of manual massage.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. The proportion of participants with \"satisfied\" or \"very satisfied\" on Item #1 for the CSQ (Cryolipolysis Satisfaction Questionnaire)- Midsection [12 weeks after the final treatment session (measured at Week 12 for participants who received only one 1 treatment session or Week 20 for participants who received 2 treatment sessions)]

    The CSQ-Midsection is a 2-item Patient-reported Outcome (PRO) instrument that measures participant's satisfaction with CoolSculpting® treatment of the midsection (abdomen and flanks). Participants rate their satisfaction by answering CSQ Item 1 ="\Rate your overall satisfaction with the results of the fat reduction procedure on the treated area\" using the following scale: Very satisfied, Satisfied, Neither satisfied nor dissatisfied, Dissatisfied or Very dissatisfied.

  2. To evaluate safety of the CoolSculpting Elite System using CoolSculpting Elite applicators for non-invasive subcutaneous fat reduction of the abdomen and flanks, and optional additional body areas . [First treatment to Follow-up/Exit Visit (Week 12 + 14 days for those participants who received only 1 treatment session and Week 20 + 14 days for those participants who received 2 treatment sessions)]

    The numbers and proportions of participants with adverse events (AEs) and adverse device effects (ADEs); serious adverse events (SAEs), serious adverse device effects (SADEs), and unanticipated AEs or ADEs will be determined.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. The proportion of participants who received treatment to abdomen and flank and one or more additional body areas for treatment with "satisfied" or "very satisfied" on CSQ-Overall Item 1 [12 weeks after the final treatment session (measured at Week 12 for participants who received only one 1 treatment session or Week 20 for participants who received 2 treatment sessions)]

    The CSQ-Overall is a 1-item Patient-reported Outcome (PRO) instrument that measures the participant's satisfaction with CoolSculpting® Elite treatment when more than one body area has been selected for treatment. Participants rate their satisfaction by answering CSQ-Overall Item 1="\Rate your overall satisfaction with the results of the fat reduction procedure on the treated areas\" using the following scale: Very satisfied, Satisfied, Neither satisfied nor dissatisfied, Dissatisfied or Very dissatisfied.

  2. The proportion of participants with "satisfied" or "very satisfied" on individual treated body area (upper arms, inner thighs, outer thighs, fat under chin) CSQ Item 1 [12 weeks after the final treatment session (measured at Week 12 for participants who received only one 1 treatment session or Week 20 for participants who received 2 treatment sessions)]

    The CSQ- Upper Arms, CSQ-Inner Thighs, CSQ-Outer Thighs, CSQ-Fat Under Chin are 1-item Patient-reported Outcome (PRO) instruments that measure participant's satisfaction with CoolSculpting® Elite treatment for the optional additional invididual body areas treated. Participants rate their satisfaction by answering CSQ Item 1 ="\Rate your overall satisfaction with the results of the fat reduction procedure on the [treated area]\" using the following scale: Very satisfied, Satisfied, Neither satisfied nor dissatisfied, Dissatisfied or Very dissatisfied.

  3. Correct identification of baseline vs 12-week post-final treatment images of the treated body area(s) by at least two out of three blinded, independent reviewers. [12 weeks after the final treatment session (measured at Week 12 for participants who received only one 1 treatment session or Week 20 for participants who received 2 treatment sessions)]

    Success will be defined as at least 70% correct identification of the pre-treatment images.
