Coolsculpting On Lower Abdomen
Coolsculpting can be a very effective nonsurgical fat reduction procedure for the lower abdomen.
Patient selection is key. Consult with a board certified plastic surgeon who performs liposuction and provides coolsculpting to determine what is the best option for you. (Kris M. Reddy, MD, FACS, West Palm Beach Plastic Surgeon)
How Effective is CoolSculpting?
In the right candidates CoolSculpting can be very effective, especially for the lower abdomen. I would say that the lower abdomen is by far the most common area that is treated with CoolSculpting.
Ideal candidates can expect a 20-25% reduction of fat in the the treated area with one treatment.
We have had some people who have experienced outstanding results with just one treatment, whereas others have required 2-3 treatments.
CoolSculpting Causes An Inflammatory Response In The Body
It all depends on the amount of fat in the area being treated, and how well you maintain a healthy diet and active lifestyle after the treatment. It’s important to choose a CoolSculpting provider who has extensive experience with the treatment and view their before and after pictures.
There are a few different applicators which can be used on the lower abdomen, and the skill lies in choosing the applicators that will give you the best results. answer your question!. (Michael A. Zadeh, MD, FACS, Sherman Oaks General Surgeon)
Patients are very satisfied
The lower abdomen has been FDA cleared for Coolsculpting treatment. Coolsculpting is effective when treating subcutaneous fat. An assessment of the area performed by a certified Coolsculpting provider will determine if you are a candidate for treatment.
The distribution and amount of fat will determine the type of applicators used as well as the best position for the applicators to achieve the best result. (Gregory Turowski, MD, PhD, FACS, Chicago Plastic Surgeon)
Coolsculpting on the lower abdomen
Coolsculpting is very effective for the lower abdomen area. Typically you can expect a 20% to 25% reduction of fat in the treated area. We recommend between 1 to 3 treatments for most patients. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after Coolsculpting.
Changes may be seen as early as three weeks after your treatment with the most dramatic results after 8 to 12 weeks.
Just remember that weight gain will prevent you from appreciating your full results. Maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine will give you the best outcome. (R. Scott Yarish, MD, Houston Plastic Surgeon)
How effective is Coolsculpting on the lower abdomen?
Coolsculpting is effective at removing fat cells. Depending upon your particular situation, it may require more than one treatment for demonstrable results. As in liposuction, the cosmetic end results will vary depending upon your skin elasticity.
It would be best to have an evaluation by your plastic surgeon. Some patients will have temporary neuropathic pain, especially in the abdomen, but this is usually short lived and well tolerated. (Paul H. Rhee, MD, FACS, Castle Rock Plastic Surgeon)
How effective is CoolSculpting on the lower abdomen?
I would say the most commonly treated areas for CoolSculpting are on the abdomen and the flanks (love handles). It can be very effective in reducing fat in the treated area but it does take a few months to see the full result.
CoolSculpting Promised No Downtime
You would need to be examined to determine if you might be a good candidate for the treatment to your lower abdomen or not. (Michael I. Echavez, MD, San Francisco Facial Plastic Surgeon)
Coolsculpting effectiveness
Coolsculpting is very effective at treating stubborn pockets of fat. Like any procedure though, it works best in properly selected candidates and you must see someone who evaluates you properly. The procedure was developed by two Harvard dermatologists and a tremendous amount of research went into developing this procedure.
It can result in about 20-25% reduction of a treated area in good candidates. There are side effects and risks so this is a procedure that should be done by someone with expertise in the procedure and the know how in terms of dealing with potential side effects. (Omar Ibrahimi, MD, PhD, Stamford Dermatologic Surgeon)
Coolsculpting is a Great Tool for Improvement in abdominal shape!
Provided you are a good candidate (in other words, that the problem you have and the goals you set for your appearance are really best met by Coolsuclpting and not another option), Coolsculpting is an AMAZING option for improvement in the torso contour.
Having had my Coolsculpting device for years now, I would say that the average patient having liposuction (with any machine out there) would probably be better off having Coolsculpting as long as she/he is willing to be patient in the realization of the outcome.
It’s really that good. As mentioned above though- it is critical that you see someone who can offer you not only Coolsculpting, but also a high degree of safety and effectiveness in liposuction and surgical procedures as well. (Armando Soto, MD, FACS, Orlando Plastic Surgeon)
Coolsculpting and Lower Abdomen
Coolsculpting is incredibly effective at treating the abdomen both upper and lower. Coolsculpting will reduce the fat bulge in a given area by approximately 20 to 25 percent. Of course an in office consultation is essential for providing the best advice.
Please consult only a board certified dermatologist with years of experience in coolsculpting for the best results. (Michele S. Green, MD, New York Dermatologist)
CoolSculpting effectiveness
CoolSculpting (CS) is tried and true for focused areas of fat thinning such as:
- Tummy pooch (abdomen) and love-handles
- Breast rolls and back rolls
- Man-breasts
- Inner thigh and under the butt “banana-roll”
- Outer thigh and arms
Other areas patients have used CoolSculpting are:
- The bulge adjacent to a scar,
- Tightness around the arm, waist or thighs in clothing, and
- Residual fullness after liposuction or tummy tuck.
CoolSculpting is perfect for the patient on the go who needs no recovery and patients of all colors or ethnicity or size with bulges! When properly applied using the Zeltiq Cool Sculpting machine (yes, there are imitators and they are not as safe nor efficacious), you can expect to lose up to 20% of the fat in the bulge which fits in the applicator.
You may wish to further reduce with stacked procedures on top of a prior CoolSculpted area or “Treat to Transformation” performing CS along adjacent areas to reach a surgical lipocontouring effect. Please consult with a well-experienced, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to obtain proper evaluation for the options available to you. (Dean P. Kane, MD, FACS, Baltimore Plastic Surgeon)
