Fat Freezing and Aortic Aneurysm. Would this treatment be safe for me?

Question

I'm considering a treatment of cryolipolsis fat freezing around the area of my waist/abdomen. I was diagnosed with an ascending aortic aneurysm 7 years ago, diameter 5.2cm, which is monitored with an annual scan and has remained stable during that time. Would this treatment be safe for me please? Many thanks.

coolsculpting will not affect an aortic aneurysm.  I suggest hormonal optimization to help your AA and make you overall more healthly along with NDA IV therapy (see link)
If you have small problem areas you can use non invasive methods like coolsculpting with vanquish or TrusculptID to get small areas of fat reduced.  Skin also tightens if you combine this with exilis ultra, venus legacy, Inmode Forma/Contoura radiofrequency treatments.  You boost the results from coolsculpting if you add in Kybella injections to melt fat as well.  We also combine coolsculpting with shock therapy like Z wave, EVIVE, and cellutone to get even faster results, more improvement, and less risk of combinations like nodules, swelling, neuropathy or paradoxical hyperplasia.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Having a CoolSculpting (cryolipolysis) treatment to the abdomen will not affect an aortic aneurysm. The treatment will only draw in the skin and fat and the deeper structures, including the aorta, would not be affected.

The treatment would be safe for you. The ascending aortic aneurysm is located in the chest and not in the area that you want to have treated.
