Will CoolSculpting on the belly displace my IUD?

Mbelah
Hi, I'm considering doing CoolSculpting on my inner thighs and lower abdomen. One provider mentioned that since the procedure uses suction, it could affect my IUD placement. I don't have a whole lot of fat that would potentially act as a buffer zone to my uterus!
