Does CoolSculpting work for very skinny people? (Photo)

The ideal candidates for CoolSculpting are normal-weight men and women with firm, elastic skin who have pockets of excess fat in certain areas. The general guideline with CoolSculpting is that, if you have enough unwanted fat that you can pinch it, you are likely able to treat it. It would be difficult to tell if you fall in this category until you have been examined in person. My advice is to get in contact with a qualified plastic surgeon for an in-person consultation, so he/she can advise you with a treatment plan that best suits your body and your lifestyle.

Thank you for your question. Yes, coolsculpting works on pinchable fat. Please consult with a board certified plastic surgeon for an in person assessment. It is the best way to determine if you are a candidate. Regards,

Sometimes people can be thin but have problem spots. Coolsculpting is good for pinchable fat but the area has to fit into one of our applicators.  But if it is a problem spot and too small for Coolsculpting then ThermiSmooth may be a good option. The best solution is to find a practice with experience and solid devices. A good practice may evaluate a patient and tell them honestly if they are not a good candidate. We want for patients to get the appropriate treatments and for them to be happy.
