I had Coolsculpting done on my Abdomen 1 week ago. I suffer from sever back pain and my Dr prescribed me Prednisone pack today to help with inflammation. Curious to know how/if this can impact my results from Coolsculpting, as I know the inflammation is part of the process. Thank you.

Answer: Prednisone and Coolsculpting While prednisone can cause some water retention and temporary weight gain, as long as the prednisone is short term (less than a couple weeks) I would not expect it to effect the results of your Coolsculpting.Andrew Campbell, M.D.Quintessa Aesthetic Centers

Answer: Prednisone after CoolSculpting - shouldn't negatively affect treatment Because your CoolSculpting treatment was one week ago, I highly doubt that prednisone will have a negative effect on your results. A longer prednisone course taken before CoolSculpting may result in increased bruising after the procedure, but that would resolve on its own with time.
