If cool sculpting is performed by expert physician, then it is safe for the chin area with out any complications regarding the thyroid. Coolsculpting is an excellent form of non-invasive fat reduction forthe right patient. Some applicators take 1 or 2 hours but the new advantageapplicators take only 35 minutes and have significantly less risk for delayedonset pain (especially in the abdomen). Results are seen at 2 months andtypically 1-3 treatments will be necessary on each area to achieve idealresults. The number of treatments depends on the amount of fat there and thepatient's goals. There is not downtime and the results can be impressivein the right patient. We also use the Zimmer Z-wave for improved patientcomfort and added results. The best candidates are those who are in prettygood shape with areas of stubborn fat that won't go away no matter what.My best,Sheila Nazarian, MD, MMMBeverly Hills, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
Thank you for your question. CoolSculpting will not effect the thyroid gland. Ensure that you are evaluated by an expert. Regards,
Coolsculping has no effect on the thyroid gland. I suggest you see an expert for treatment and evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer.
When treating the double chin the CoolMini applicator is placed just underneath the chin (called submental area). This is above and away from the Thyroid. In the right hands the procedure is extremely safe. Please find an experienced provider for your treatments. Best wishes.
I have attached a link that might be helpful...Hi ADDG445. The mini applicator should be placed in the upper neck and the thyroid gland is usually at the base of the neck. The cold temperature does not spread a significant distance beyond the applicator, so happily, no real risk to the thyroid gland. Be sure to have your treatment by a graduate of Zeltiq's Coolsculpting University so that everything is done to manufacturer's recommendations. Good luck!
No, CoolSculpting mini will not negatively effect the thyroid gland when used for submental fat reduction when used by a properly trained provider. The applicator is placed under the chin in the submental region, which is away from the thyroid gland.
Both CoolMini and Kybella can be performed without danger to the thyroid gland. Be sure you find a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon whose staff have attended CoolSculpting University.All the best, Dr. Clark
There handpiece is placed much higher than the thyroid gland. It should be of no concern with the treatment. I would proceed without fear.
Good question! This device is designed to treat the submental area, that is the area directly under your chin. The thyroid gland sits low in the neck and should not be affected by the treatment.
CoolSculpting is great for reduction in the submental area with the CoolMini applicator. The applicator is placed under the chin and does not affect the thyroid gland. The cooling does not travel farther than where the applicator is applied. Make sure you consult with a Certified CoolSculpting Technician to make sure you are a good candidate for this procedure.
What you are experiencing is normal after coolsculpting in your case with coolmini. There will be swelling , soreness and numbness after the procedure, but it will subside in a 1-2 weeks. Please consult with your doctor. Best, Dr.Green
It would be possible to treat someone with CoolSculpting and Kybella to reduce fat under the chin. You would need to space these apart however, as both treatments require several weeks to see results. Both of these treatments, when used alone, normally require more than one treatment session t...
Hello, Thank you for your question. Unfortunately CoolMini can not be used on the cheeks. You will need to discuss alternatives with your local provider. Good luck!
