I am 64, 5’8”, 125 pounds, work out 5x week, never had kids, in great shape—have ALWAYS been this weight over 30 years. Had the CS less than 3 months ago to get rid of “bra fat” and around my abs. Actually repeated it once at their suggestion a month ago. The results are amazing EXCEPT for the flabby wrinkly skin I never had. HELP!
Answer: Does Coolsculpt tighten skin? Hi,Unfortunately Coolsculpt does not help to tighten your skin. It is only targeting your fat cells. After Coolsculpt, it is best to receive a skin tightening treatment, such as Venus Legacy, to help tighten up the laxity that may be left behind after your body has rid the fat. I suggest partnering up with your local service provider to determine the next step in your treatment plan. Good luck.

Answer: Skin laxity after CoolSculpting Skin integrity is based on many factors (age/hormones, weight gain or loss, etc), and likely you always had some laxity in your abdominal area prior to CoolSculpting. As mentioned in previous posts, if you remove volume from an area that has some laxity already, it can appear more obvious after the volume that was holding up that area is gone. Thankfully there are many treatments to help with skin tightening. We have Thermage, a radio frequency device, at our office to help with thin, lax tissue. I would strongly advise you to look into methods of skin tightening at the office you're established at or search in your area for reputable clinics that can offer you the appropriate treatment. Best of luck!

Answer: Sagging Skin After CoolSculpting? Skin Sags With Weight-Loss and Age The downside to losing weight after a certain age (which varies by individual and skin quality) is that it usually leaves you with some sagging skin. Although CoolSculpting does offer slight skin-tightening effects, if your skin is already inelastic, you will have sagging, just as you would if you’d lost weight through diet and exercise. You can look into Ultherapy and other heat-based therapies that stimulate collagen production and help take up some of the slack. Be sure to consult a board-certified dermatologist who can pick the best treatment for you.

Answer: Unfortunately, Coolsculpting does not tighten skin in the abs. Thanks for your question. Unfortunately, Coolsculpting does not tighten skin in the abs. For a noninvasive option you may consider Exilis to tight the skin along with Cellutone to decrease cellutone and enhance the results of your treatments. Exilis uses high frequency electromagnetic energy to tighten skin. Best of luck!

Answer: Coolsculpting and Loose Skin and Coolsculpting is a fantastic procedure but I am not sure why they had you repeat the procedure after only one month on such a small area when you had so little fat. Unless there is a large amount of fat it is best to wait four months to see the full effect from your Coolsculpting. At this point I would consider Thermage to treat this area. It will tighten up this abdominal area but will have to be repeated every two years. It will generate new collagen and tighten up the skin. Best, Dr. Green
