1.5 years after getting silicone breast implants and 3 months after CoolSculpting. I developed a rash. Advice?

Question

I am 1.5 years out from getting silicone breast implants. I also got some CoolSculpting done on my abdomen and flanks 3 months ago. Shortly after my CoolSculpting I developed a non itchy spotty rash on my stomach and breasts. Now I also have what appear to be spots or patches on my legs and arms too. What could it be?

Kyle Coleman, MD · Answer

Coolsculpting and breast implants would not cause a systemic rash.   Rashes are difficult to tell from photos without more information.  However, looking at the picture the rash could be a yeast rash or eczema.  Seek out a Dermatologist for evaluation.  Best of luck.

It is best to see a dermatologist who can evaluate your rash in person.  You would not develop a rash from CoolSculpting 3 months after the procedure and in other areas that were not treated with the CoolSculpting applicator.  I hope that helps!

Looking at your pictures it is very difficult to see your rash. CoolSculpting did not cause your rash. You need to follow up with your physician since I believe your rash might be a medical issue not a cosmetic one.
Good luck.

Leonard Grossman, MD · Answer

Unfortunately the photographs you have submitted do not show the characteristics of the rash very well. There are many reasons as to why the person breaks out in a rash, including stress, dietary changes, exposure to chemicals such as detergents and much, much more. I would see a dermatologist in your area for an evaluation. If you find the solution, great. If on the other hand no treatment is found, I would also obtain an MRI to rule out breast implant rupture.
