I'm 63 year old female about 220 lbs. I had 1 Kidney removed last year and my GFR is at 39. I do have some edema in my ankles and legs, other than that I'm in good health. I'm very uncomfortable with my belly size. It's very hard for me to reach my feet to put shoes on/ tie them, I feel like I'm 9 months pregnant all the time and nothing looks good on me. I had a consult with Sono bello for lyposuction but they use lanocane that is hard on kidney so they told me NO.

Answer: CoolSculpting® should be safe for you. Because the process of fat cell elimination is very gradual and takes place over the span of several weeks, I don't think your kidney will be overstressed by the treatment. The best candidates for CoolSculpting are at or near their target weight and have a few isolated problem areas that they can't improve through diet and exercise alone.

Answer: CoolSculpting: Will it hurt the kidneys? This is a great question. Actually, the good new is that CoolSculpting will have no effects on the kidneys, as the dead cells will be filtered out by the liver. And, even though the fat cells will be removed by the liver, it happens at such a slow rate over a period of months, that no damage is possible to the liver as well. CoolSculpting is a remarkably safe and effective way to permanently remove fat cells from the body. Good luck with everything!
