I had a baby through C-section 7 months ago. Where I had my c-section I have a overhang - I was wondering if it was still possible to go through the procedure around that area. And it won’t affect anything.
Answer: Coolsculpting after C-section Hello and thank you for your question. Coolsculpting will definitely help with fat reduction in this area. The degree of skin tightening varies from patient to patient depending on condition of skin in treated area. Most patients that are in the same position as yourself are happy with the degree of tightening and fat reduction. It is best to wait 1 year post surgery to ensure the scar is well healed. As stated by another provider, a tummy tuck will give an ideal result if looking for a flat stomach. An in person consultation with an expert in coolsculpting/body contouring provider is needed to determine best options for you. Good luck to you!

CONTACT NOW Answer: CoolSculpt around C-Section CoolSculpt is safe around the C-Section scar, but I wouldn't advise applying a treatment over it. There are most likely some scar tissues that are still healing around there. CoolSculpt does recommend that you are not breastfeeding while receiving treatment. Best, Dr. Anil Shah

Answer: Cool Sculpting after your C Section Thank you for the photo. In my practice here in Ohio I would advise you to wait at least one year after your baby on the stomach. I also have a concern about the laxity on the abdomen if/when you cool sculpt bc it does not tighten the skin. I would see a provider within a plastic surgeon's office bc you may need surgery for best outcomes. When you sculpt the fat down the skin may appear looser, only you ca can decide if that's acceptable to you or not but an in person consultation would be best! Good Luck!

Answer: CoolSculpting Candidate Hi there, Thank you for your question and picture. Based on what can be seen it does appear that you may be a great candidate for CoolSculpting. With that being said you will need to contact the doctor who delivered your baby and ask them if they would like you to wait a full 12 months before doing anything in that area. Please consult with a local physician in person to determine if this is the best course of action based on what your goals are. Best of luck and congratulations on the new addition to your family!

Answer: Can CoolSculpting be done above C-section? At seven months after your C-section, I do not think there should be any problem having a CoolSculpting treatment above the area where your incision was made. CoolSculpting can reduce fullness due to fat. If there is any excess skin, this issue would not be addressed with CoolSculpting.
