I had CoolSculpting done about 4 years ago. After I finished my second round, I noticed that it left indentions in my inner thighs. I talked to the place that did it but they would not help. I did see another place that did CoolSculpting to see if they could fix it and they told me that the applicators had not been placed incorrectly. I am over it, I am just looking for a solution on how I can make them look more smooth. Your input would be greatly appreciated.

Answer: Indentation on thigh following incorrect treatment I'm so sorry to see your very unfortunate result. The good and bad news of Coolsculpting is that it works on eliminating fat cells...this is why it is imperative that the applicators are placed properly and thoughtfully and the treatments are done by providers that are well trained. Once the fat cells are gone, they're gone. When faced with cases like yours we have done various things to help patients mask, disguise or some how improve the area. This can involve Coolsculpting adjacent areas, radiofrequency treatments to surrounding areas, fat grafting or fillers to the indented area. Consider a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon that is also experienced with Coolsculpting and other non-surgical modalities that may help. Best of luck.

Answer: CoolSculpting treatment was incomplete It looks like the applicator to treat your thigh was too small. The unwanted fat should be matched to the appropriate applicator size. The easiest way to correct this is to place another applicator above the previously treated area and do another session so that the applicators would have overlapped as if it were one larger applicator.
