I diet and do excerzise but seems genetic that I canno't get fat off my stomach. I actually look very slim till you look at my stomach. Would cool sculpting work for me? Parents have agreed to do it.
Answer: 16 with Stubborn Belly Fat The ideal candidate for CoolSculpting is a slim patient with specific areas of stubborn fat such as abdominal fat or excess hip fat. At age 16 it is imperative for you to have a thorough consultation with a parent and for both of you to sign consents understanding risks and possible side effects. It is also important that you are establishing healthy eating and exercise habits now so that you have a healthy lifestyle into your adulthood. At this juncture in your life, it may also be wise to consult with a nutritionist and a trainer to ensure healthy habits and to improve the longevity of the treatment results. With that said, if it is established in the consultation that your are indeed a good CoolSculpting candidate I see no reason for you not to proceed. Good luck!

Answer: 16 year old CoolSculpting If your parents are willing to sign consent forms and you are a good candidate for the procedure I don't see any reason why you wouldn't be able to be treated. When you go for a consultation be sure to be thorough on your health history forms as it helps us to understand whether or not you will make a good candidate. Good luck and enjoy your results. Remember you can expect up to a 20% reduction in the fat layer of the area that gets sucked into the applicator and that you can increase the reduction up to another 20% if you have a second treatment performed in 30 days. Most practices offer a significant discount for a second treatment so do be sure to ask when you go in for a consultation.

Answer: Coolsculpting As long as your parents come with you to your consult and for the informed consent process, you could be a candidate. Coolsculpting is an effective FDA non invasive treatment for excess fat. I have seen some impressive results with a series of 2-3 treatments. However, the results do vary from patient to patient. Remember, cool sculpting requires no surgery and it will generally yield at least 10-20% improvement each treatment. It will take up to 3 month to appreciate your final results after each treatment. However, you must understand that cool sculpting is NOT liposuction. Liposuction is a surgical procedure and will yield more definitive results. Please visit with a board certified PS to learn more about your options.Dr. BasuHouston, TX

Answer: Coolsculpting for a 16 year old. While Coolsculpting does not have a minimum age requirement, it is vital to have informed consent before any procedure is performed. The patient should be able to understand and give consent to the procedure, and it is often vital to have parental input during the consultation process so that a patient in their teens can fully comprehend his or her options.
