The office who treated me did 10 to 15 treatments of Zeltiq, and 6 Vanguish but it did not help with the hard balls. They have offered to retreat with Coolsculpting but I am extremely nervous, and don't want to make things worse. The Dr is not sure what the lumps are, but doesn't think it's the very rare hyperplasia. Is lipo my safest option at this point?

I have personally experienced these nodules after a CoolSculpting treatment on my abdomen. It is one of the known possible side effects that typically goes away with time. My firm nodules are going away and yours will likely disappear with time as well.
Thank you for your question. Coolsculpting is a very safe procedure. However, all treatments have potential side effects, although with Coolsculpting they are very unlikely to occur. Your treating physician should discuss all potential side effects and expectations before your procedure. I hope...
Thank you for your question! Coolsculpting is a great non-invasive treatment for this area. It will take more than one treatment to get the best result. Please see and expert for an in person evaluation. Best of luck!
