Thyroid problems or no contraindication if they are under good control. As long as your thyroid function is under good control, whether you started out with an under active thyroid or an overactive thyroid, if your blood levels and symptoms are normal there is no contraindication for treatment. I am an endocrinologist. This is what I’ve been doing for the past 30 years.

As to your specific question about how long you could wait after your previous treatments before you do SculpSure, I would suggest that you could wait forever...as in my experience less than half of treated patients give SculpSure a three star rating or above.

I wish we had better alternatives but I wouldn’t overestimate SculpSure based on online ratings. Good luck

It looks like you have some mottled subcutaneous fat. I don’t know much about your treatment alternatives but I do know that SculpSure is pretty hit or miss. I doubt that it would take out the mottled appearance,  which is really not too bad based on the photo you submitted.

Good luck! 

I would avoid doing SculpSure over a large scar with thin skin especially if there’s a temple. However a small flat scar with surrounding fat should be an acceptable site. Please keep in mind that less than 50% of patients report a satisfactory response toSculpSure treatments.

You can have sculpsure if you have RA as long as you don’t not have an active flare and or a skin lesion in the treatment site. Keep in mind that less than 50% of any patients have a satisfactory response to treatment.
