Does Coolsculpting Work on Inner Thighs?

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.  Best to see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.  They will be able to tell you of the different options, (CoolSculpting, Liposuction, Direct excision, etc.).

Yes - coolsculpting does work on the inner thighs. It is often done in one treatment, however can be done in to treatments dependent on the amount of fat in the area. In addition, you may dual sculpt both inner thighs if you can tolerate the position and are flexible to fit two applicators in that area. 

Thank you for the question.  The short answer is yes Coolsculpting is FDA approved for treatment of the inner thighs and it can be quite effective if you are a good candidate.  The dimension of the inner thigh fat must be such that it fits to the shape of the Coolsculpting applicator.  This is the biggest limitation for treating the inner thighs with Coolsculpting.  In order to determine this it is important to seek out an expert Coolsculpting practice and have a consultation/examination to assess your particular situation.  Hope that helps.
