Is It Safe to Do Zerona with CoolSculpting or Liposonix?

sofi7891Feb 27, 2013

Hi, I'm interested in either cool sculpting or liposonix depending on what is recommended by the doctor. Before discovering these procedures I purchased a voucher for 10 sessions of Zerona which was greatly discounted. I regret purchasing this voucher due to the reviews I read later but have decided to use them anyway. My question is will Zerona laser have any negative effect on cool sculpting or liposonix? I plan to do the zeltiq end of march, zerona april and then zeltiq may. Is this safe to do?

Coolsculpting is an excellent form of non-invasive  fat reduction for the right patient. Some applicators take 1 or 2 hours but the new advantage applicators take only 35 minutes and have significantly less risk for delayed onset pain (especially in the abdomen). Results are seen at 2 months ...

The stick of butter refers to the elevated and hard skin envelope around the frozen fat cells that thaw after CoolSculpting and become softer again. Not all patients develop this, especially if they have minimal fat. Bruising is variable. You may still develop a good result but you should ask...
