Will getting Sculpsure after CoolSculpting prevent PAH?

Question

In my area, getting Coolsculpting deals is easy. You can usually get three treatments for under 2k. But I'm nervous about PAH (where the fat freezes and expands). I've seen statistics that ranged from 1 in 20,000 to 1 in 200! I'm not confident in any given percentage as a result.If I could, I'd get only Sculpsure, but Sculpsure is less well known and is usually far more expensive here, almost double the price for Coolsculpting. with the lack of exposure Sculpsure has here, there are no certified/verified etc doctors who perform this procedure. Just a local OBGYN and cosmetic dentists office. Their before and afters for Sculpsure aren't as impressive, too.Would freezing, then heating, prevent the remaining fat cells from swelling up?

there Is NO EVIDENCE that anyting helps prevent PAH.  exercise, hormonal optimization with peptides, hormones, and metabolic boosters (see link) can help and trusculpt ID/FLEX do better than sculpsure.  Best, Dr. Emer.

I do not think that having SculpSure after CoolSculpting would have any influence on the potential to develop PAH.  I also think that the development of PAH is much less with the newer CoolSculpting applicators versus the older ones and there are studies which show this.

I have said the same many times before, in the majority of patients, it is less expensive to have liposuction performed by an expert than it is to have non-invasive procedures to achieve the same results. Besides being less expensive, the results are instantaneous in liposuction whereas in the non-invasive approach it may take over a year to get the same. I hope this helps and good luck from New York City plastic surgery
