Does metal inside one's body permit for Exilis, Coolsculpting or Vanquish treatments?

June 22, 2016
Asked By:dextro242 in Aurora, IL

I have had a spinal fusion with titanium pedicle screws from L1-S1. I also have a permanent metal retainer in my mouth and want to get rid of a double chin. Will all this metal be a problem for Vanquish, Coolsculpting or Exilis treatments? Which one is recommended if one has metal in their body?
