Does medication affect the result of CoolSculpting?

Question

I take risperidone. Should I still go on with CoolSculpting or does it affect the result?

Michael I. Echavez, MD · Answer

I am not aware of any interaction of the medication Risperidone and CoolSculpting.  In my opinion, it would be fine to have a CoolScupting treatment while taking this medication.

There is no data to say that Risperidone would cause any interaction with the CoolScupting treatment

Some medicines can affect weight loss, or cause weight gain. However, no medications will inhibit the coolsculpting procedure which is permanently removing fat cells.
