It seems this procedure is commonly done on the abdomen area, but what about inner/outer back of thighs on a non overweight person?
Answer: Can CoolSculpting Be Used Back on Thighs and Inner/Outer Thighs? Thank you for your question! Coolsculpting can do a wonderful job treating the inner thighs as well as other parts of the body and is one of the top non-surgical, non-invasive procedures on the market today with no downtime. My thoughts on outer thighs, I discuss in my video below which I think will be helpful. It is important to remember that CoolSculpting does not address the skin's elasticity or cellulite alone but can be combined with other treatments to improve overall results. To know what areas are best suited to CoolSculpting on your body and if in fact different treatments are needed, I suggest contacting a preferred physician or Coolsculpting specialist for a private consultation. By doing this you will have a custom tailored treatment plan to reach your goals and a stronger understanding of why CoolSculpting may be best for some areas of the body but not all. I hope this information was helpful. For more information regarding your question, please see the video below. Good luck to you!

Answer: CoolSculpting the thighs, (back/inner/outer) CoolSculpting has FDA approval for fat reduction since 2010. CoolSculpting freezes the fat cells. Fat cells are more susceptible to damage by freezing than the other cells, (nerve, vessel, bone, etc.), around them. The fat cells die via a process called apoptosis, (programmed cell death). The number of fat cells are therefore reduced. This happens over a period of time, so the body is not overwhelmed with dead fat cells. The body will take these cells up, process them and excrete them, just as any other cell. The remnants are filtered through the liver, and then excreted eventually via stool. CoolSculpting now has an applicator for thighs. CoolSculpting had been used in this area with good results. See an experienced CoolSculpting practice, they will determine if you are a candidate.

Answer: CoolSculpting on Thighs Zeltiq has come out with a new applicator called the CoolFit that can address fat reduction on areas such as the outer and back of thighs. It is contoured to fit these areas better than the previous applicators that didn't fit these areas. It's always a good idea to obtain a consultation to see if you are a good candidate for this treatment.

Answer: CoolSculpting on outer and inner thighs for fat reduction
Certainly, CoolSculpting by Zeltiq, has been FDA cleared for the abdomen and the flanks and doctors are able to utilize it, off-label, on the outer thighs. Now with the recently acquired CoolFit applicator, which is flat compared with the curved CoolPlus, 6.2,6.3 and 8 applicators, we are looking forward to seeing results on the inner thighs using the CoolFit off-label. There may be side effects or risks that will be more apparent after a time during which many doctors treat many patients with the device for the thigh areas so stay well informed and ask your doctor many questions.

Answer: CoolSculpting on Thighs
Thank you for your question.
The most common areas for Coolsculpting Treatment are the flanks and abdomen. This treatment is FDA approved for those areas. If you were to use it on your thighs, it would be an "off label" use. Many people choose to have their thighs treated and end up with nice results. I would recommend that you visit with a doctor who can examine the areas of concern for you and determine if Coolsculpting with help improve those areas.
Best Wishes.
