Answer: HIV and CoolSculpting The only absolute contraindications to Coolsculpting are metal in the treatment area, cryoglobinemia and cold agglutinin disease. HIV is not a contraindication. Coolsculpting involves no exposure to bodily fluids. I would encourage you to engage in full disclosure with your provider however. Good Luck with your Coolsculpting! Here is some more information.

Answer: Yes, you are still a candidate for Cool Sculpting, and other procedures, in spite of your HIV status. Thank you for your question! Yes, you are still a candidate for Cool Sculpting, and other procedures, in spite of your HIV status. You may want to look into a body contouring procedure that combines both liposuction with laser, radiofrequency (RF), or acoustic therapy to produce the best balance of fat reduction and skin tightening and smoothing for your body type and anatomy. We use a proprietary technique that we call IDEAL Liposuction. First off, all devices and instruments used are FDA-approved. These procedures are usually performed in the office, with only local anesthesia. Best of luck!
