Assuming you did not have liposuction of the flanks with your tummy tuck, it is safe to do cool sculpting any time in my opinion. If you see a Plastic Surgeon for cool sculpting, you will always be safe, because the surgeon has all the tools to treat your problem the most effectively and economically. Best of luck to you!
Most surgeons will perform some liposuction along with the tummy tuck. If you had liposuction to the flanks at the same time, I would wait at least 6 months because the full effects of the lipo may take time to be seen. You may find that you do not need the Coolsculpting after all.
Hi. You should not have any problems at 3 months, especially if your healing is progressing without any issues, and assuming you didn't have any liposuction of the flanks during your tuck. Enjoy your results!
Hi sammiestar,Sometimes we wait a bit longer but if your doctor felt it was fine to do it three months post. op., then it's fine. CoolSculpting would result to 20-30% fat loss over the affected area. This is a great sculpting procedure to give you a more contoured flank after your tummy tuck.All the best,Justin Harper, M.D.
