Asked By:Paul20501 in Los Angeles, California

I’m thinking of getting CoolSculpting to treat my two back flanks. There isn’t a lot of fat there and I’m fit overall. My concern is that I might get an indent or it wouldn't look smooth. Why do indentations happen in CoolSculpting and ways to prevent them from occurring?
