2 inches of stomach overhang. Would I be a candidate for coolsculpting?

Thank you very much for your question.
CoolSculpting is an excellent choice for patients looking to reduce isolated
areas of fatty tissue, such as the stomach or flanks. The technique can
eliminate 25-30% of the fatty tissue after a single treatment. Unfortunately,
CoolSculpting does not affect tissue elasticity, so lax skin will continue to
sag after treatment. However, without a photograph or an in-person examination,
it is difficult to give you any more specific advice. I recommend that you
schedule a consultation appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon,
experienced in the CoolSculpting technique. He/she will perform an examination
and carefully determine if CoolSculpting is the right technique to achieve the
flat, smooth stomach you desire.

CoolSculpting is a non-surgical solution for removing fat cells in many areas on your body and can be a great alternative for fat removal on your stomach. However, it won’t tighten the skin. I would recommend to talk to a board certified plastic surgeon first to get the best advice. Hope this helps.

It's difficult to answer your question without seeing you first, but Coolsculpting is great for the abdominal area.  It's not very good at tightening skin, but some patient do get slight contraction after the fat goes away.
Thank you for your question!

It is impossible to say what is the best treatment for you without a photo or better yet, an exam.  Coolsculpting is like liposuction in that it simply removes fat.  It does not tighten or remove skin. If loose skin is a component of your problem, a tummy tuck may be a better procedure for you.  Be sure to see a board certified plastic surgeon for a consultation to discuss your particular need. Best wishes.

Thanks for your question. An in-person consultation is best for determining if you are an ideal candidate. The coolsculpting procedure requires you to have pinchable fat and little loose skin as it does not work in  tightening your skin. Please see a board certified plastic surgeon for an in-person consultation. Regards,
