Should I be taking milk thistle after CoolSculpting?

Question

I have had cool sculpting in the abdomen area for the second time. The staff recommended milk thistle for liver detoxification.

Thank you for the question. It is difficult to answer your question without examining you. Milk thistle may or may not help. It is best to exercise and healthy eating post Coolsculpting procedure. It is best to consult your board certified plastic surgeon. Good luck.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

This is unlikely to significantly improve your results. Keep in mind, for best results, a combination approach with other non-invasive treatments is needed and some people need more than one treatment with Coolsculpting. I recommend adding radiofrequency treatments like Vanquish for skin tightening and with Z wave/Cellutone for skin smoothing. However, a Vaser with ThermiRF procedure is the best combination for a toned result, but requires more downtime. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for your question. It is very unlikely milk thistle will affect your results. Also, studies have shown that CoolSculpting does not affect liver function. I hope this help. All the best, Dr.Michon
