Answer: CoolSculpting for treating skin laxity Your question is a common one. CoolSculpting is not designed to tighten the skin, it is a nonsurgical option to remove 25% pinchable fat per treatment. You did not include photos, so it is hard to tell how much loose skin result after fat reduction. Some patients who are younger may have skin which will respond favorably so that the skin laxity is not severe. However, depending on the amount of fat removed, others will be left with loose skin. However, there are also patients who report that along with the fat reduction, they have noticed some skin tightening. Another option would to have SkinTyte done after CoolSculpting to help with this. I recommend that you consult with a physician or provider with experience in treating these areas, and take the time to look at before and after photos as well.

Answer: Does Coolsculpting help with lax or extra skin? Recently, Coolsculpting studies revealed that when the neck is treated with coolsculpting there is a significant amount of skin tightening that accompanies it. Presumably, this should also happen to skin in other areas of the body as well. Of course, it can't get rid of all skin laxity and we all have differing amounts of inelasticity so seeing a reputable coolsculpting provider to discuss your options is a good idea. Going to a plastic surgery office might be best as they can offer all possible options in addition to coolsculpting.

Answer: Skin Laxity The only area Coolsculpting will help treat any skin laxity or to help tighten the skin is only submental tissue, which is typically under the chin. The cool mini applicator is used to treat this area. Although the procedure time is longer than other treatment areas it does have impressive results. Fortunately, cool sculpting does not create further skin laxity for any treatment area either.

Answer: Skin Laxity CoolSculpting is only FDA cleared for fat reduction. As the CoolSculpting reduces the fat in that area, your skin may have more laxity. If your skin has good elasticity you may see your skin contract slightly.

Answer: Will CoolSculpting (Zeltiq) Address Skin Laxity? Thank you for your question! CoolSculpting kills 20% to 25% of the fat cells in the treated area but does not correct or address excess loose skin or loss of elasticity or firmness. There are however treatments that can be used in combination with CoolSculpting to address this. In our clinic we marry a treatment using CoolSculpting Cryolipolysis for the reduction of fat and the CORE V-FORM to restore collagen to improve the skin's overall elasticity and firmness. I recommend scheduling an in person consultation with a CoolSculpting specialist or preferred physician in your area for a physical evaluation and the opportunity to discuss a custom treatment plan that will deliver the best results for your specific areas of concern. By meeting for a consultation, you will know what other types of treatments can be combined to address the skin's elasticity to achieve your desired results. For more information regarding your question, please see the video below. Good luck to you!
