Will CoolSculpting on the abdomen cause more visceral fat?

Sensible663968
If I cool sculpt the abdomen and generally maintain my weight, do you gain more visceral fat around your organs? Since cool sculpting destroys fat cells, I believe this would mean that more fat gets stored in your existing fat cells if you aren’t losing body fat percentage so therefore you are accumulating more visceral fat.
