Breast Implants and Coolsculpting Risk?

JK_212
Does cool sculpting harm breast implants if you do a treatment on the upper stomach area near your breasts? I'm thinking of doing a small area below but near the breasts (top part of rib cage) Will the freezing cause the implants to freeze and potentially weaken and rupture?
