Am I a candidate for Coolsculpting? Can I combine it with other treatments to tighten loose skin after first treatment? (Photo)

Question

Hello - I’m a mum of 1 and I have always had stubborn fat on my abdomen even when I was very slim (pre-baby) and young. This has accumulated over time and now more noticeable and I’m self conscious because of it. Based on the photo is CoolScultting/cryolipolysis for me to get rid of the stubborn fat? And can I combine it with skin tightening in between sessions? Thank you in advance for you advice!

You appear to be a good candidate for CoolSculpting of your abdomen.  Based on your photos, you do not appear to have an issue with excess skin, so I'm not sure that you would need any skin tightening.  I would recommend having the CoolSculpting treatments first and then you could determine if there is any issue with excess or loose skin afterwards.

Coolsculpting combined with Skin Tightening is an excellent option to address stubborn fat on the abdomen. It appears by your photo that you are in good physical condition and that the minimal amount of stubborn fat should respond to a couple of Coolsculpting sessions spread over the abdomen and flanks. We often combine Coolsculpting which targets fat with Emsculpt which targets both fat and muscle for increased tone. Our Radio Frequency-based skin tightening devices can also be incorporated into the treatment plan for additional skin tightening.

Thank you for sharing your question and photos.
You seem a great candidate for minimally invasive procedure as Cryolipolysis, and yes skin tightening (radiofrequency, microneedling....) can probably improve your result.

You should be able to achieve your desired results with Cool Sculpting. Adding skin tightening modality, such as NuEra Tight after Cool Sculpting will aid in optimizing tightening of the skin. We usually recommend it after 30-60 days post CoolSculpting.
