Does coughing during Coolsculpting (causing skin fold in applicator to retract) affect treatment results?

I understand the concern about coughing during a CoolSculpting session. As long as the seal is not broken, known as a pop-off, coughing during the treatment will not affect your overall result.

Coughing during a CoolSculpting treatment to the abdomen can sometimes cause a little discomfort but it should not affect your ultimate results.  Laughing during the treatment can also cause the same discomfort but should not affect results.  

CoolSculpting is a great procedure for the abdomen, flanks, thighs, and other bulges that diet and exercise does not help.  As long as the seal was not broken during the treatment (an alarm would be triggered in the machine), then the treatment would still be effective.  

That is a great question. Coughing during a CoolSculpting procedure can feel uncomfortable for a moment because of the temporary shift but rest assured the system is made to provide continuous suction. If for any reason an applicator comes off or loses suction, the system is made to alert your provider in order to re-apply. This is very rare and has never happened in my practice. This temporary discomfort from coughing will not affect your results. It's very important to go to a top CoolSculpting Complete provider. Top providers are able to offer buy one area, get a second area free.
