Can I get Coolsculpting done in my groin/crotch area?

I would suggest obtaining a consultation to determine if you are a candidate for CoolSculpting or a different treatment/surgery that would suit your needs. CoolSculpting in this area would be considered off-label and the area would have to be assessed to see if it could be effectively treated.

Thank you for your question. CoolSculpting is approved to treat flanks and abdomen like areas. It is not recommended for use in the groin area and is not recommend. I recommend having a consultation with an expert in CoolSculpting for best results. Best of Luck!

Coolsculpting does not have FDA approval for the groin. Proceed with caution for this area. Consult with a board certified physician who can provide surgical and coolsculpting options to understand the best option for you.

You need to be seen and examined.  The are different distribution of fat in the groin and inner thigh region.  As mentioned previously these areas can be treated but are considered off-label.

Great question!I think it's important for you to understand that in 2010 Zeltiq obtained FDA approval of CoolSculpting for the abdomen and hips/flank area. Many other area's can be cool sculpted they are just considered to be off-label.I personally do many other area's including: the back,arms,man-boobs, and inner/outer thighs.  In fact, Coolsculpting just released a new applicator to treat the thighs called "Cool Smooth" - and so far I am impressed.I would need to see you and examine you to let you know whether or not I think CoolSculpting would work in your area of concern.  I think it's really important you see a surgeon with all the available applicators to accurately access weather or not you would be a good candidate. It's unusual for you to have had liposuction of your groin area and not to have experienced a result.  It can take a good 4-6 months for swelling to subside, so if you are within this time frame I would encourage patience.  If you are outside of this time frame I would encourage you to see your surgeon and express your concerns.  Good luck,Jennifer Harrington MD

Coolsculpting is approved for the flanks, abdomen areas in particular.  It is not approved for the groin area and I would not recommend it.  Please make sure you see a board certified dermatologist with a lot of experience in cool sculpting for the best results.
