Monica Boen, MD · Answer

Hello and thank you for your question. CoolSculpting is not advised over any type of implant. However, you could get CoolSculpting in another area if your like. Make sure you work with a board-certified dermatologist who is an expert in this procedure to ensure your treatment is both safe and successful.

Thank you for your message! CoolSculpting is not recommended over any type of implant, which would include the Nexplanon. I would recommend a consultation with a provider in your area for further assessment. They will be able to see if there is a smaller applicator that excludes the Nexplanon area.

CoolSulpting is not recommended in an area with tattoos, any implants or metal.  Coolsculpting is also not recommended if you suffer from cryoglobinemia.

Thank you for your great question! It is not advised to place a CoolSculpting applicator over the Nexplanon birth control implanted device. You could CoolSculpt other areas of your body, but not over the implant. You would have to remove the implant from you arm prior to CoolSulpting your arms. I do hope this information is helpful.

You can not get Coolsculpting over an implant. It would need to be removed prior to having a procedure
