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.

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.
