Can I do the SculpSure treatment for my belly when I have my period?

Question

Michael I. Echavez, MD · Answer

I would recommend that you do not have a SculpSure treatment while you are having your menstrual period.  The treatment could be more painful during that time.

Dennis Gross, MD · Answer

In no way will having your period effect the results of the treatment. The only thing is you may be more sensitive at this time, the pain being a little more uncomfortable but we do offer pronox (laughing gas) for anyone who needs!
Most patients feel a tingling sensation intermittently throughout the treatment which is generally well-tolerated. For those who are concerned with the sensation we do offer a form of laughing gas that can be administered during the procedure to make the Patient more comfortable if necessary.

James Okamoto, MD · Answer

You "can" do Sculpsure on your belly when you are on your period, however it may be more uncomfortable during your period, so I would recommend waiting till after. Many women compare the feeling of Sculpsure to menstrual cramps, so having menstrual cramps on top of menstrual cramps is not ideal.
