Coolsculpting on outer area of upper arm? (Photos)

bdub87
Can Coolsculpting be done on the outer area of my upper arm? I have a "pinch-able" section of fat along the outside of my arm (not the "bat wing" area like most get treated). It's very noticeable and bulky looking despite having lost 30lbs and losing 5% body fat (as tested by my doctor via the water tank dunk test). My body is much firmer and toned everywhere else, which has taken almost 3 years, but this area will NOT budge!
