Will Coolsculpting on my lower abdomen affect my IUD (Mirena)?

CoolSculpting® is totally non-invasive and should not affect your Mirena device in any way. The cold temperatures used during CoolSculpting® specifically target fat cells and do not cause any changes to the skin, muscle or bones around them. Make sure you are receiving your CoolSculpting® treatment from a qualified CoolSculpting® technician with the proper training and experience.

Yes, you are safe to have CoolSculpting if you have an IUD. There are no gynecological contraindications to having this procedure.Best of luck,Oscar A. Aguirre, MDUrogynecologist & Cosmetic Vaginal Surgeon

Hi wik9248.  No, CS on your lower abdomen will not effect your IUD.  The cold temperatures do not effect your skin above the fat, or the muscles, bones, organs etc. below the fat that you are treating. A high quality CS provider may have advanced training (Coolsculpting University), multiple machines, the  new applicators that take less time and are more comfortable, and an on site physician.  Best wishes,
