Since Sculpsure results show up in 6-12 weeks, how long after Sculpsure can Coolsculpting be done in the same area?

Thank you for your question. The lag between SculpSure treatments often depends on the effectiveness of prior treatments. I suggest that you move forward and consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon for an in person examination to determine your candidacy and discuss your treatment plan.
Best wishes,

Sculpsure is a noninvasive laser treatment that removes up to 25% of stubborn fat in the treated area in 25 minutes.It is FDA approved for the abdomen and flanks.The body contouring effects are seen in as quick as six weeks with final results at 12 weeks. The laser targets and destroys the fat cells only which are then naturally removed from the body. Since the laser does not affect the skin or muscle it can be used on all skin colors and there has been no reported incidents of burns when treated by a properly trained physician. It has four applicators that can be customized to treat the areas of stubborn fat. If a second treatment is needed we wait at least six weeks and usually closer to 12. There is no downtime and you can resume your normal activities right after the treatment. There may be some soreness in the area for a few days for which you can take ibuprofen or tylenol. A cold compress can also be used.Sculpsure is not used for skin tightening however some of her patients have seen this. If more skin tightening is needed we have combined this with thermi or Ulthera for a complete treatment. Sculpsure is recommended for stubborn areas of fat that are not being lost by diet and exercise. It is not a weight loss treatmentSince I have both a coolsculpting and sculpsure I am working on protocols of utilizing both of these depending upon what areas need to be treated and the response to the treatment. I have used sculpsure on other areas other than the abdomen with very good results. I also use a Vectra 3D imaging system to try and show people what their treatment areas could look like.Since Sculpsure outcomes can be based on technique and experience, please see a board certified plastic surgeon that specializes body contouring to see if Sculpsure or other treatments are available to meet your goals.

to be honest there is no reason why you would have to wait to do coolsculping after sculpsure.  we do not know the added benefit of the two together but since sculpsure is very little downtime with lack of inflammation there is no reason why you cannot in my opinion.  Best, Dr. Emer.
