I have PBC, an autoimmune disease which affects the liver. Is CoolSculpting safe for me?

Question

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

You should be able to have Coolsculpting, but this needs an in-person evaluation. Keep in mind, for best results with Coolsculpting, a combination approach is needed. I recommend adding radiofrequency treatments like Vanquish for skin tightening and with Z wave/Cellutone for skin smoothing. However, Vaser with ThermiRF procedure is the best combination for a toned result, but requires more downtime. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

There has not been any study on healthy adults that states that CoolSculpting effects the liver. However, you should contact your doctor for prior approval before receiving treatment.

You should be able to have CoolSulpting and be perfectly safe.  There is nothing to suggest that CoolSculpting may affect immunological diseases or disorders.  Check with your Immunologist to be sure there are no that there are no reasons that you should avoid CoolSculpting.
