Is it safe to have cryolipolysis treatments on my abdomen 15 years post spinal fusion with rods and screws? A checkup with my orthopaedic surgeon 12 months ago confirmed that the fusions and hardware and all secure and intact. I was told that the cryolipolysis result can be improved with a followup appointment for fat cavitation and RF skin tightening. My research indicates that I cannot have the RF skin tightening because of the danger of heating the hardware…but is the fat cavitation safe?
