CoolSculpting with mesh in stomach? Is it an option? (photo)

Question

I have mesh in my abdomen from an abdominal component separation surgery and hernia repair- from a prior surgery. There is still a bulge in my stomach-to the side on my belly button. More so on the left than the right. Would cool sculpting be an option as I don't want to go under again- no exercise seems to work to fix it.

It would be best to seek a certified physician in Coolsculpting and possibly in plastics to discuss your best options.  Having the hernia repair and mesh could raise your risk of long term side effects.  Look in your local area and fully disclose what your goal is for your abdomen prior to scheduling appointment.  Specifically ask for doctor to sit in on consult, and discuss the best treatment plan for you.  Goodluck.
