Is CoolSculpting safe for us that have had a hysterectomy?

As long as your scars are healed and you do not have any hernias, Coolsculpting is safe after any intra-abdominal surgery.Best of Luck,Sheila Nazarian

I appreciate your question.As long as the abdominal wall is intact (no hernia) it is safe. Typically the fat is above this area for treatment anywayThe best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.best of luck!Dr Schwartz

As long as you don't have a hernia in the area being treated then CoolSculpting is perfectly safe to do after a hysterectomy. If you have a lot of scar tissue in the area it will not affect the scar tissue, but it will reduce the fat. Make sure you see an experienced physician provider for an accurate assessment.

Thank you for the question. Coolsculpting  is a very safe procedure and it can be performed on the abdomen as long as you have enough pinchable fat. If you have an umbilical or ventral hernia I would not recommend Coolsculpting for that. Having scars does not prevent anyone from undergoing Coolsculpting procedure. I would recommend for you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon to determine if your candidate for Coolsculpting. Good luck.

Coolsculpting is safe as long as there are no hernias in the area and can be performed if the fat fits into the applicator without issue. Best, Dr. Emer.

One of the great things about CoolSculpting is there are relatively few contraindications.  It is perfectly safe to treat over a scar, as long as you do not have a hernia.  We have treated the lower abdomen of many women who have previously had a hysterectomy and seen excellent results.  CoolSculpting is an excellent procedure for addressing those last stubborn areas of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise.  A consultation with an experienced provider will help determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure.

Getting CoolSculpting 1.5 years after a hysterectomy is safe.  While there are some contraindications to the procedure (for example, patients who have a hernia, open wounds, or pregnant patients), the vast majority of people can safely have this procedure done.  Good luck!

This should be perfectly fine to do. If you have an umbilical hernia, that would be the only reason not to perform. This can be check before you start your procedure. 

CoolSculpting is safe after any abdominal surgery, assuming you don't have a hernia.  Scarring doesn't affect CoolSculpting; it will still treat excess fat in the area.

At 1 and 1/2 years post op hysterectomy you should have no problem using CoolSculpting.  As long as all wounds are healed you should do well. Please see a board certified plastic surgeon.
