Exilis Treatments During Pregnancy. Is It Harmful to Baby?

Question

I just found out today that I am 5-6 weeks pregnant. I just finished 4 treatments of Exilis to the abdomen. I would have been 2 weeks pregnant when I started the treatments. Did or will this harm the baby?

Hello there,
     Exilis is definitely contraindicated during pregnancy. That being said, no studies have been done on pregnant patients with this treatment, therefore there is no research on whether or not this is dangerous. I would let your ob know what happened, and they should be able to advise you on what testing to have done, if any. Hope this helps.
