Hello, I am a 59 y/o women. Years ago I had coolsculpting on my inner thighs, banana rolls and abdomen. I feel as though the lipo on my inner thighs resulted in Paradoxical Adipose Hyperplasia but I can't say for sure. As my photos will attest, coolsculpting had no effect...IMO it made the area worse.
