Are there proven cases of dozens of lipomas being successfully removed via SmartLipo, CoolSculpting, or another method? (Photo)

Question

I’m a 33-year old relatively healthy male that has suffered from hundreds of lipomas throughout my body. Most are centered in the torso region. When I stretch my abdominal skin, I can see several more little ones. I’ll be forever grateful for any proven recommendation or guidance for a solution aside from cutting each one out. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Hello and thank you for your inquiry. Coolsculpting will not remove lipomas. You may want to consider removing them surgically.

CoolSculpting will not remove lipomas.  The normal treatment of lipomas is to surgically remove them.  Especially with small lipomas, this can frequently be done with a very small incision.

Hello and thank you for your question. 
Lipomas are congenital condition. CoolSclupting was not designed to treat such a condition nor would I advise it as effective, long term “off label” treatment for lipomas. I would advise getting your lipomas surgically removed to see the most satisfying results.  
CoolSculpting is a body contouring procedure intended to eliminate stubborn fat bulges from problem areas like the belly, flanks and under the chin.

There is some data on Kybella for lipomas. Do a google search. I prefer a very small incision and basically pop them out. I did a hundred or so on a former NFL player with minimal scarring

Unfortunately CoolSculpting does not remove lipomas. Lipomas can be removed by surgical excision. (You can watch TLC's Dr. Pimple Popper to see how the removal is done!) Best wishes, Mary Beth Mudd
