Answer Snippet
CoolSculpting after c-section, how long should I wait?
Coolsculpting after C-Section
Jul 12, 2017
It is possible to have Coolsculpting after C-section. Waiting about 12 months is typical prior to treatment. This allows patients to return to their stable prepregnancy weight and allows time for the scar to heal. Screening for abdominal hernia should also be performed prior to treatment. Stretch marks should not occur with treatment. The Coolsculpting treatment typically does not alter the elasticity of the skin- it neither helps nor harms stretch marks/loose skin. Only the fat should be…
Exercise after CoolSculpting and best way to get full results?
Coolsculpting Results
Jul 12, 2017
In a good candidate for treatment, Coolsculpting should result in a 20-25% reduction in the fat cells in the areas treated. As long as patients maintain their diet and regular level of exercise this result is typical and the result should endure over time. Healthy exercise and weight loss should only improve the results of treatment.
Is it better to have one area at a time treated with CoolSculpting rather than several areas at once?
Coolsculpting Areas
Jul 12, 2017
Coolsculpting treatment should work in any suitable location resulting in a 20-25% reduction in the fat cells in the areas treated whether one area is treated or several. This said, patients often will focus on one area at a time (ie, treat the entire abdomen) and treat to completion (usually a series of two treatments about 3 months apart) instead of treating multiple areas (ie, abdomen, flanks, arms, etc) to see the most impressive results one area at a time before moving to the next area.
How long does the coolsculpting last on your body, does the fat come back?
How long does Coolsculpting last
May 2, 2017
We know that regular fat cells typically do not regenerate. Coolsculpting eliminates 20-25% of fat cells on average and these cells typically do not return. As long as you maintain your weight with diet and exercise following treatment, the results of Coolsculpting should be permanent. Should your weight change, however, the remaining fat cells in the previously treated area can enlarge or shrink possibly altering the results of treatment.
Coolsculpting. Diet or not to diet? THAT is the question!
Dieting and Coolsculpting
May 2, 2017
As long as an appropriate handpiece can be applied the the abdomen (ie, there is enough subcutaneous fat to fill the applicator), Coolsculpting can be performed. There are several different Coolsculpting handpieces of varying shapes to enable tailoring of treatment to individual patients. 20-25% of the fat in the treatment zone is typically eliminated following treatment. This reduction in the number of fat cells is permanent. The remaining fat cells may fluctuate with weight gain or loss…
What happens if one does CoolSculpting and then gets pregnant?
Coolsculpting followed by pregnancy
May 2, 2017
In general, Coolsculpting prior to pregnancy is completely fine and should still yield lasting good results. Coolsculpting typically results in a 20-25% reduction of the fat in the areas treated. This is a permanent reduction in the number of fat cells in the area, so even after the body’s fluctuations with pregnancy you should still see the results of your treatment as long as you return to your pre-pregnancy weight.
Excessive bruising and swelling after 1st series of Kybella Injections, why would this be happening?
Kybella side effects
Mar 15, 2017
Many patients experience swelling and bruising after Kybella, so these are considered typical side effects of treatment. The swelling may take weeks to resolve. Bruising may become darker in the first several days and may also take a few weeks to resolve. If the bruising is indeed becoming worse however (and not going through the typical bruise stages of changing from red/purple to yellow/green/brown) please do follow up with your treating physician as many things from medications to low…
Trying to find out if I can fix a Botox gone wrong situation?
Botox treatment
Mar 15, 2017
It sounds as if the Botox placement may have been too low at the brow. Fortunately the Botox will wear off after 3-4 months on average. In the meantime, you could consider discussing eye drops that may help open your right eyelid. Consider having an evaluation by an experienced injector and asking about this option.
