Zeltiq CoolSculpting after weight loss of the stomach
There are different reasons for still having a stomach after weight loss. If the skin is hanging and there's not much fat left then a tummy tuck is needed to trim excess skin.

CoolSculpting is not a weight loss solution for people who are obese, or a substitute for surgical methods such as liposuction.

Coolsculpting after weight loss
When you lose a great deal of weight suddenly you may have alot of extra skin. Since there are no photos it is hard to tell if Zeltiq or Thermage would work for you.

Coolsculpting for the Stomach
Coolsculpting is great for treating excess fat of the stomach area. However, it doesn't remove any excess skin. Having lost 56 pounds, you may need a tummy tuck. See your local Coolsculpting specialist to see which one is right for you. Good luck!

Coolsculpting
Thank you for your question.
It is difficult to say if you are a good candidate for Coolsculpting without an in person examination. If the area you are concerned about has a significant amount of loose skin, you may not be a good candidate. If your stomach has an area of "pinchable" fat, you may be a good candidate.
Please visit with a certified doctor to get the best result.
Best wishes.
