Yes, you can have Coolsculpting with a pacemaker and/or lap band. Keep in mind, Coolsculpting is good for stubborn areas of fat, but lacks skin tightening and body shaping. For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction which can be combined with a tummy tuck or other lifting procedure for skin tightening.

I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for your question! I do not believe that Coolsculpting is an option to assist you for treatment in this area. I would recommend an evaluation with a board certified plastic surgeon to help you achieve your desired look. Best of luck!
Thank you for your question. When treating the abdomen, either the cool max (large) or the cool core (small) applicator is used. They are both great and deciding which to use really depends on your provider and their assessment during during your consultation. The cool max is generally u...
