I had Cool Sculpting about 7 months ago. I had very bad bruising and lots of pain after the procedure and my abs are still numb. There have been no changes in my body shape except my Triglycerides are much higher. The doctor says "dangerously higher." Is this something Cool Sculpting will do? What happens to the fat that is "frozen?" How is the fat expelled from your body? I was told not to worry, it will get absorbed into the bloodstream. Is this correct?
Answer: What Happens To The Frozen Fat After CoolSculpting When the fat cells are frozen and killed during a CoolSculpting treatment they are then cleaned up by your body's immune cells and ultimately eliminated from your body through urine. There are many studies that show that there is no effect of the CoolSculpting treatment on triglyceride levels, so I do not believe the treatment caused your elevated levels. 7 months is a long time to be numb after the treatment. Usually the numbness subsides after 2-4 weeks. I suggest you return to see your CoolSculpting provider for a follow up to make sure everything is ok.

Answer: What happens to the fat after CoolSculpting? Thank you for your question. The frozen fat after Coolsculpting is naturally absorbed and flushed away from the body. It doesn’t affect the lab value or organs in any way. One treatment freezes 25% of fat permanently and depending on your goal sometimes people may require few treatments to get more than 25 %. I would recommend consulting with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to give the best treatment plan. I hope this helps!

Answer: Where does the fat go after CoolSculpting? Following the CoolSculpting procedure, the fat is gradually broken down and eliminated from your body through the same process is the fat in foods. There are no significant measurable increases in fat breakdown products in the blood after CoolSculpting treatment. This has been specifically and carefully studied
