Effective to Re-treat Area with Coolsculpting After 7 Weeks Rather Than 8?
I treated my lower abs with Zeltiq and will have a second session (same area) 7 weeks from my first treatment. I have heard that retreating before 2 months pass enhances results, but other physicians believe that one must wait until the affected cells in the region are cleared away; otherwise these cells will prevent the adequate freezing of the next layer of cells. Will having my second Zeltiq treatment performed 7 weeks after the first rather than 8 weeks later affect my results?

7 or 8 weeks
You can certainly re-treat at 7 weeks, rather than 8 - the time difference there would be unlikely to cause a problem.

Re-Treat Coolsculpt
Retreating is a great, safe way to achieve a better result in a shorter period of time. I do my second treatments 4 weeks after the first. Then you have the final result sooner. Good Luck!
