I believe I have paradoxical adipose hyperplasia after cryolipolysis aka CoolSculpting and as you can see in my photos, the treated areas (arms, abdomen, sides, outer thighs) became more enlarged. I am looking for a plastic surgeon who has experience with this kind of situation. I know that the solution is liposuction, but I am worried about loose skin afterwards. Any thoughts?

Answer: Fat Hyperplasia After CoolSculpting Sorry to hear about your CoolSculpting experience. It is extremely rare to have fat hyperplasia in all areas that were treated. It usually occurs in the abdomen. Did you gain any weight since your treatments? I would make sure you follow up with your treating provider and have them contact the CoolSculpting company about this. If they determine that this is truly fat hyperplasia then often the company will cover the cost of your liposuction. Best wishes.

Answer: Paradoxical adipose hyperplasia after Coolsculpting This happens a few times per 10,000 treatments. Liposuction will help this. A tummy tuck is needed to have best skin tightening and would be the best solution for you. Laser liposuction will tighten skin about 18% in some cases but needs to be done with regular lipo in your case. Cost is highly variable and I suggest seeing a few surgeons to get the best way to proceed.
