Thank you for your question.  thank you for the photos.  Best to see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.  They will be able to give you a wide choice of options, (CoolSculpting, Liposuction, Direct excision, etc.). Review your reasonable goals with them, and together you will make a plan.

Thank you for your question. This area can be treated, however, I would recommend seeing a board certified plastic surgeon for a consultation. This way, you can explain your concerns and find an option that fits you best.  An in-person assessment is always best.Regards,

I find that liposuction is the best for this area, I think that non invasive options work but take many treatments.  I prefer sculpsure over collsculpting though.  Best, DR. Emer.

Hi Lizzy. Yes, you can treat the pubic area with CoolSculpting and we have done it many times with great success. Usually at least 2 treatments are needed for best results.

Coolsculpting can be theoretically used anywhere that the treatment applicators will fit.  It is important to see a physician who is an expert in body contouring who can evaluate the area and talk about the risks and benefits of the procedure.   Depending on the amount of fat and laxity, coolsculpting may or not be effective.

Thank you for your question and photos.Yes, Coolsculpting can be performed in the pubic area (as long as the applicator can suction onto the area of concern). It may take several treatments to see the results you want.Best to be evaluated by a board certified plastic surgeon who can discuss the pro's and con's of surgery vs. coolsculpting and help you decide which is the best option for you.Best wishes.

The lower abdomen, below the umbilicus, usually responds very well to CoolSculpt.  Usually two sessions are needed.  I have observed excellent results within my practice in this same area.
