Cryolipolysis post spinal fusion?

Coolsculpting is a safe procedure you can do to reduce about 20%-30% of the fat in the area treated. Most patients require 2 treatments to get the best results. Make sure you have a certified Coolsculpting Center listed on the website. Best of Luck!

Radiofrequency (RF) depends on strength and distance from rods, but caution is the best option. There is no contra indication to doing cyroliposis after spinal fusion, or most other surgical procedures. You would, however, want to wait for a period of healing before doing any additional procedures after major surgery.

It sounds like you had your spinal fusion operation performed with an incision along the middle of your back; you should be able to have Coolsculpting with no problems. The only reason why spinal surgery may be a problem is if your incision is on the front or side of your abdomen; in this case Coolsculpting is still possible, but your treating Coolsculpting professional should check your abdomen for a hernia at the site of the scar. If you have any concerns at all, I would advise you to speak to your spinal surgeon before having Coolsculpting. As a general rule, surgical implants are not a concern when we are treating with Coolsculpting, as the applicator cools the skin and superficial fat only.
