I’ve been considering coolsculpt but I keep reading mixed reviews so I’d love to hear from the experts. I work out regularly but have stubborn lower belly fat. Would coolsculpt work for me? Any long term effects, like a shift in fat to other areas or lumpiness? I’ve also read about nerve damage, is that common? Also NYC based if anyone has recommendations.

Answer: Coolsculpting Candidate--Getting Great Results with Coolsculpting--Add Vanquish for Fire And Ice Treatment For best results with Coolsculpting, I recommend a combination approach. I recommend adding radiofrequency treatments like Vanquish, Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra for skin tightening and with Z wave/Cellutone for skin smoothing. VASER with ThermiRF is a great alternative. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Perfect CS Candidate Hi, thanks for the question and the pictures.You are a perfect candidate for CS. You will lose 20-25% of the fat in the area that is treated. You will likely need to treat the area twice to get the WOW results you are looking for. There are no long term effects. There is no shifting or fat or lumpiness. If you do gain weight in the future, you will notice it in other areas of your body, but not in the treated areas. Nerve damage is uncommon. Typical side effects are soreness, numbness, itching, tingling sensations - all of which are mild, will not require any treatment, and resolve in a few days to a few weeks.You do not have enough fat to do liposuction. Other non-invasive treatments do not work as well as CS.Best of luck,Michael Kerin MDKerin MedSpa
