I recently had cool sculpting to reduce a small amount of fat on my abdomen. However, 7 weeks later the fat I wanted reduced beneath my belly button is still there, but there is a deep indentation resembling a shark bite about half an inch above my belly button. Can you please tell me if this is normal and will change over time, or if perhaps the cool sculpt was not positioned properly to target fat below the belly button.

Answer: CoolSculpting. Is this indentation normal?
Each treatment area is different and can have different reactions. You really can't compare different CoolSculpting areas. As long as you did the full treatment, there is no need to worry.
Cool advantage does decrease the total time by almost half as well as increasing the surface area of the treatment. Studies did reveal equal effectiveness between the newer and older hand pieces. In addition, so far there have been less reports of delayed onset pain. This is anecdotal and once...
Coolsculpting would work very well for someone like you in the inner thighs. This is a simple and painless procedure in the office. Please consult a specialist. Best, Dr. Green
