Would you definitely know if you have PAH?I've read it would be a clearly demarcated/hardened area – is that always the case? I've had 2 coolsculpting sessions (lower abdomen) with not great results. Post treatment, weight fluctuated maybe +/- 5 or so lbs over the course of 1yr, nothing drastic. But I have noticed a little lump/bulbous type thing if I pinch one side of the treated area, to the left of my navel. Could PAH present as little lumps under the skin/fat? DRs office had not heard of PAH
Answer: Symptoms of PAH after CoolSculpting Thank you for your question and I’m sorry you haven’t seen positive results from your CoolSculpting treatments thus far. Paradoxical adipose hyperplasia is an extremely rare side effect of this procedure that is characterized by a large pocket of hardened fat. Smaller bumps are not a common symptom.

Answer: PAH usually fairly obvious with a patient examination Hello and thank you for your question. PAH is rare, but can occur after Coolsculpting. Any physician providing this treatment should be aware of this complication. With your weight staying generally the same, this could be a few things, either a cyst or small area of PAH. Your physician would need to examine you. PAH usually does not present as lumps but rather a larger, diffuse area. I hope that this helps and wish you the best of luck.

Answer: PAH after CoolSculpting I understand your concern, particularly in light of the fact that you haven’t seen great results from your CoolSculpting treatments so far. Rest assured that paradoxical adipose hyperplasia or PAH is a very rare complication from CoolSculpting and the symptoms you are describing do not match the condition. PAH presents as a hard area of localized fat. It is not characterized by the small lump you have.

Answer: PAH after CoolSculpting PAH usually is a delayed outcome that is very distinct in presentation. What you describe doesn't seem like it is that however without a picture or physician assessment I can not guide you for sure. I would recommend seeing your provider for an assessment to check on it. In the cases we have seen in our business it is thick, fibrous feeling, in the exact shape and location of where the applicator was placed. best of luck!
