I'm 56 and regardless of my weight, my shape has always been barrel like. I was 116lbs @ 29 yrs (stopped menstruating due to so much weight loss!) and now 160lbs (down from 172) post menopausal. Same shape at 116lbs only a LOT less of it. As I continue to lose weight (working hard at it) I'm afraid my barrel waist will come back if I do Coolsculpting too soon, but I am going to a wedding on the French Riviera in September and for ONCE in my life, I would like a waist. I want to do this now!

Answer: Coolsculpting Hello, Thank you for your question and photos. There are several factors to consider here. CoolSculpting has the best results for individuals who are at their ideal weight. This is because the fat cells are smaller, so more can be treated in one area. That being said, many use CoolSculpting during their weight loss journey as a reward. It will help you see more targeted results. If you use it to start shaping your abdomen the results should still be obvious once you loose more weight. We can't guarantee it, but it most likely will. You may want to continue on your weight loss journey for another month or two before starting your CoolSculpting treatments. This will allow them to work a little more for you, and you will still have enough time to see results. Best of luck, and congratulations on your weight loss!

Answer: Cool Sculpting during weight Loss You have a great question and congrats on your progress! With the photos it's hard for me to tell exactly how you lay out but I don't think you would love cool sculpting how your abdomen lays out currently. You could spend a lot of money on treatments and not get the "waist" you are wanting by vacation. To achieve that goal, keep working on your weight loss and do cool sculpting when you're closer to your goal weight for contouring rather than large volume reduction (many repeats). Best of luck!
