I want CoolSculpting under the chin. I plan to be pregnant this year. Will this affect my results?

Question

I want to get Coolsculpting under my chin. I am hoping to be pregnant this year. Will my results go away or stay permanent after pregnancy weight gain? Thank you.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

It's difficult to determine how pregnancy will affect your results. I find that VASER liposuction in combination with ThermiRF are best for contouring the chin in those who are candidates, but Kybella can be used as an alternative and needs to be combined with thermage/ultherapy/exilis or coolsculpting for good results. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

The Coolsculpting procedure is FDA approved for the treatment of fatty deposits of the submental and submandibular areas. It may offer a degree of improvement. However, a minimally invasive liposuction may be more effective in achieving your desired result.Weight gain during pregnancy and postpartum weight fluctuations are impossible to predict. Consider waiting until after childbirth to undergo the procedure.Seek a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon.Best wishes...

Neck lift with cool sculpting is not the best option if you want jawline definition as well as fat minimizing.Liposuction with Vaser is a better option to sculpt and define the neck line, remove fat and tighten skin.Best. Dr Brecht Seattle, Wa
