Would CoolSculpting work on area with lipohypertrophy?

Asked By:kaporter13

I have type 1 diabetes and have had lipohypertrophy above my navel for years. I have not injected in that area in at least 8 years now, but they lumps have not gone away. Would Coolsculpting work on an area of fat like this? It is very uneven (left side bigger than right) and I’m trying to find a way to get rid of it.
