If one suffers from diabetes type 2 , is it still safe to do this ? Does the frozen fat gradually go through the blood stream ?

Coolsculpting is an excellent form of non-invasive  fat reduction for
the right patient. Some applicators take 1 or 2 hours but the new advantage
applicators take only 35 minutes and have significantly less risk for delayed
onset pain (especially in the abdomen). Results are seen at 2 months and
typically 1-3 treatments will be necessary on each area to achieve ideal
results. The number of treatments depends on the amount of fat there and the
patient's goals.  There is not downtime and the results can be impressive
in the right patient.  We also use the Zimmer Z-wave for improved patient
comfort and added results. The best candidates are those who are in pretty
good shape with areas of stubborn fat that won't go away no matter what. This is a safe procedure for someone with diabetes.

CoolSculpting is complete safe and effective for patients suffering from with Type 2 Diabetes. Because the body reabsorbs targeted fat cells very slowly over a period of weeks and even months, the amount of fat entering the bloodstream does not impact blood sugar levels or have any other health impacts.

CoolSculpting is absolutely safe for patients with Type 2 Diabetes. Your body processes and reabsorbs the damaged fat cells very slowly over a period of weeks and months. Therefore, the amount of fat being absorbed into the bloodstream at any one time is extremely minimal, and should not affect your health in any way.

You should not have any trouble undergoing treatment so long as your diabetes is managed. It is however something that you should let your provider know about when you go in for a consultation. With regard to the disposal of the fat. The cryolipolysis process leads to apoptosis which means that the fat cells actually break down and self destruct over a two - three month period. As the cells break down they are removed from your body through your lymphatic system in a naturally occurring body process.
