Hello! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant, and one of the providers at Aesthetic Skin in Winnetka and Chicago. This is a great question. If you’ve been diagnosed with aortoiliac calcification, it’s important to consider several factors before undergoing CoolSculpting. Aortoiliac calcification refers to the buildup of calcium in the arteries of the aorta and iliac vessels, which can be indicative of underlying cardiovascular issues. CoolSculpting, a non-surgical fat reduction procedure that uses controlled cooling to target and eliminate fat cells, generally does not directly affect the cardiovascular system or interact with arterial calcification.

However, your overall health and any cardiovascular conditions should be carefully evaluated before proceeding with CoolSculpting. While the procedure is non-invasive and generally considered safe for most individuals, it’s essential to ensure that your cardiovascular health is stable and that there are no contraindications for the procedure. Consulting with both your primary care physician or cardiologist and the CoolSculpting provider is crucial. They can review your medical history, assess any potential risks, and determine whether CoolSculpting is appropriate for you. Additionally, they can provide guidance on how to manage any cardiovascular concerns while undergoing cosmetic treatments. I hope this helps and best of luck!
