I exercise regularly and fear the downtime from liposuction may halt or reverse the progress I’ve worked so hard for - so my first thought is to try cool sculpting since it requires no downtime. But will it work for a Buffalo hump? If there are other fat removal procedures that require little to no downtime, I’m interested in learning about those too.

Answer: Buffalo hump Thank you for your question and photograph. My recommendation would be to consider liposuction for this area. The CoolSculpting applicators are not indicated for this area. Best of luck.

Answer: Can CoolSculpting be used to treat buffalo hump? Most of the CoolSculpting applicators use suction to pull in the skin and fat to be treated during a treatment. The area on the buffalo hump is too dense to be able to be pulled into a normal applicator. It is possible that the flat applicator, which is normally used on the outer thigh, could be used on a buffalo hump but I am not certain how well it would work there. Another option would be SculpSure, which does not require the tissue to be pulled into an applicator. It uses heat, delivered by a laser, to destroy a portion of the fat cells and the applicator sits on top of the skin.
