HIFU procedures are designed to only target the layer of fat that needs to be eliminated. There are no studies done on pregnant women but, the procedure should not harm the organs under the layer of muscle so i don't think there is a need to worry about your pregnancy. However, please mention and discuss the HIFU procedure with your OB/GYN to get his or her opinion.
The HIFU treatment doesn't penetrate deep enough to negatively impact your pregnancy. If you remain concerned, I recommend following up with your OB/GYN. Best, Dr. Emer
Congratulations on your pregnancy! This treatment targets the ultrasound energy on the fat layer of your abdomen.

I would let your OB know about the treatment but do not worry- your baby will be fine! Best wishes, Mary Beth Mudd

I would suggest avoiding any cosmetic procedures during breast feeding although you could pump milk and store it before the procedure and use this for 3-7 days after while you are on medications. For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction, which can be ...
Having the titanium plate won't matter when doing liposuction but avoid laser lipo since it is the cheapest of the lipos now because of complications and less than descent results. (although some docs can do a decent job with laser lipo, it is not the norm).
The most effective way to make a change in problems areas such as love handles and tummy pouch is liposculpting. In other words, you have to remove the fat. How the fat is removed dictates the level of results. Come visit for a consult or visit our website and schedule an email co...
