Breast augmentation (breast implants) are generally done in the operating room under general anesthesia while CoolSculpting is done at the office with the patient awake and takes an hour or 30 min depending on the type of machine used. I don't think there is a surgeon who would do CoolSculpting in the same setting with breast implants in the operating room given that there is increased risk from increased time of anesthesia and also increased cost. I would recommend that you discuss your options with your surgeon. It is probably reasonable to do CoolSculpting in the office few days before or even same day of your surgery given that it's in the remote location (not bra line or upper abdomen). Or you can have it done once you are partially recovered from your surgery (but again not in proximity of incision, not bra line or upper abdomen). If you are treating upper abdomen or bra line with CoolSculpting, you will probably be advised to space your surgery and treatment at least one month apart to give you best chance of healing. Hope this answers your question.Sincerely,Olga Bachilo, MD
No. CoolSculpting is a non-invasive and drug-less procedure, while a Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that will require you to use anesthesia and go under the knife. I would also space out each of these procedures a few weeks, as a means to recover from one.
