Can I get CoolSculpting if I have metal fusions in my back?

Hello cspat14,Thanks for your great question. Metal implants from a back fusion, knee replacement, etc., are not a contraindication to CoolSculpting. I'm sure you are trying to get yourself into your previous physical shape before having had your fusion. CoolSculpting allows you to get there in a safe non-surgical way.   Best of luck,Oscar A.

Thank you for your question, this is a very important questions to ask. While
having metal fusions in your back is not a contraindication for Coolsculpting, there
are a few other things to consider. Can you sit in the same position
comfortably for 35-60 mins? Minimal movement during your treatment is a must so
being comfortable and stationary during treatment is very important.  The manufacturer of the Coolsculpting devices
recommends a wait time of one year following Coolsculpting over a surgical
incision site.  Any wound must be
completely healed, skin must be completely intact.

Thanks for your question.  Having a
metal implant is not a contraindication. Consult with a reputable CoolSculpting
provider to see if you are a good candidate for the area that you seek
improvement.  Best of Luck!
