I have stubborn fat around my knees, mostly in the inner side (and it is fat, not loose skin). I got a CoolSculpting consultation from the same clinic that is doing my laser hair removal, but my knees and thighs are not a good candidate because there's not really any "bulge" areas. Are there any non or minimally invasive procedures that could treat this? If not, what surgical procedure is recommended?

Answer: Knee fat or loose skin This is an interesting area as it pertains to body contouring, many woman have thick stubborn deposits of fat in this area, I have found using VASER energy allows me to melt the thick fat and than I can use a small cannula to remove it, its sore for a few days but results are dramatic. However, some woman really just have loose skin on top of the knees, currently I have found plasma skin tightening technology to be the best option in these patients, of course some people need both. These are common low risk out patient procedures with high patient satisfaction!

Answer: Inner Knee Fat I offer Coolsculpting to my patients that are good candidates for a non-surgical approach to fat reduction. However, some patients are better served by liposuction. A board-certified PLastic Surgeon can determine which approach is best for your situation.
