Can CoolSculpt done on inner thighs leave saggy or crepey skin? (Photo)

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

Thank you for your question. It is difficult to tell without examining you. CoolSculpting usually does not result in loose skin. However, I would recommend

seeing a board certified plastic surgeon for a consultation. This way, you
can explain your concerns, learn more about the procedure, and determine if you
are a good candidate. An in-person assessment is always best. Regards,

Coolsculpting removes fat locally and usually slightly tightens the skin.  if you already have lose or hanging skin then you need to have skin removal or thermiRF tightening at the same time.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for the question and the photos. It is difficult to answer your question without examining you. However from looking at your photos you certainly could be a candidate for Coosculpting for your thighs. Cool sculpting helps to freeze the fat and overtime to diminish the amount of fat that you have  in the treated area. It is not meant to tighten the skin you do have to continue with your fitness program which may help tighten the skin. However for those patients who have extra skin and extra fat they may need both both cool sculpting and a skin tightening procedure. I would recommend for you to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck.

CoolSculpting will not significantly tighten skin in the area treated, however, it will also not make your loose skin any worse. Usually, in areas where there is both fat and loose skin a combination treatment of CoolSculpting and a skin tightening procedure work to give the best results. Please see an experienced provider who has a variety of different treatments to address your concerns. Best wishes.
