The buttock should have fat
In my opinion, the buttock should have fat, and my worry with any treatment of the buttock is that of "overcorrection" and the unnatural appearance that this may lead to. treating the area below the buttock, the "banana roll" is safer in my opinion.

CoolSculpting of the buttock area
Thank you for your question.
It is best to have an examination to see if the localized area that you are concerned about can "fit" into the CoolSculpting Applicator.... if it is a localized area and the applicator fits correctly around the area, then yes you can have it treated and there will be 20-25% reduction after 1 treatment.
I hope this helps.

CoolSculpting by Zeltiq for the buttocks
If there is a localized pouch of fat on the buttock around which the applicator of Zeltiq will fit, then the doctor can recommend the treatment off-label. In the future, if applicators are made in many different shapes, it would allow the physicians to treat a wider variety of shapes.

Coolscupting can be used on the buttocks
Coolsculpting in Europe is used in many different locations, including the buttocks, with great results. As with all procedures, a consultation to make sure that you are a good candidate must occur and the applicator by an experienced person must be measured.

Coolsculpting for Buttocks
Greetings Fey~
Though the pictures you have posted are helpful, without seeing you it would be difficult to say with any certainty. If the fat or area you wish to treat is quite firm and is difficult to suck into the treatment chamber and for the applicator to attach to properly then you may not get an ideal result. The fat would have to be soft enough and malleable enough to be drawn up into the applicator and make sufficient contact with the panels that freeze the fat. So the answer...

Can CoolSculpting be performed on the buttocks?
CoolSculpting can sometimes be performed on the buttocks. It is dependent upon the contour of the bulge and the pliability of the tissue one wants treated. The Zeltiq CoolSculpting device uses an applicator of which there are three different ones. The choice of the applicator is dependent upon the contour of the bulge being treated. In addition, the tissue has to be pliable enough so that it can be pulled up into the applicator. One can only tell if your...

Zeltiq on the buttocks
Coolscultping or zeltiq in certain circumstances can be used on the posterior buttocks or as some people refer to the area as "saddle bags". It is most important that you be examined first and if appropriate, have the procedure performed by a physician well skilled in this treatment.
In my experience, those that respond best to the treatment in this area are those with some degree of a fat pocket as well as some laxity, in order for the suction device to attach best to the area
