Hello Puparella,
I'm very sorry to hear about your cancer(s?). 
As a Cosmetic Gyn, who keeps up to date on my original specialty of Ob/Gyn, the most important questions are when did you have the cancer(s)? Did you have surgery, chemotherapy, etc.? Are you a cure? 
If your Gyn Oncologist says you can have cosmetic surgery, you certainly can have CoolSculpting. 
Best of health to you and I think it is wonderful how you are trying to move forward with your life.

I would not recommend CoolSculpting for someone with active ovarian or liver cancer.  Treatment for the cancer should be done first.  Once the patient is cancer-free, CoolSculpting could be done.  In some cases, if the cancer is in remission, it may also be possible to have CoolSculpting.
