## Indications for use
The CoolSculpting System is a skin cooling or heating device. The device is indicated for cold-assisted lipolysis of the thigh, abdomen, and flank, or “love handles” in individuals with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or less. The device is intended to affect the appearance of the thigh, abdomen and the flank. Cooling with the device may also be used to minimize pain and thermal injury during laser and dermatological treatments and act as a local anesthetic for procedures that induce minor local discomfort. The CoolSculpting System is also indicated for use to provide localized thermal therapy (hot or cold) to minimize pain post-trauma and post-surgery, and for temporary relief of minor aches, pains, and muscle spasms. The optional massage function can also be used for the temporary relief of minor muscle aches, pain, and spasm and for temporary improvement in local circulation and temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite. The ZELTIQ Gelpad facilitates thermal contact of the device with a patient’s skin by mitigating minor variances in device-to-skin contact.
