Currently 80 lbs overweight, can CoolSculpting be used for faster results as I am in the process losing weight?

Thank you for your question. First of all, congratulations on dieting and exercising, this is a wonderful step towards getting healthy. Unfortunately, at this time I do not believe you would be a good candidate for CoolSculpting. CoolSculpting is not a weight loss solution for people who are obese, or a substitute for surgical methods such as liposuction. Good candidates have noticeable bulges in certain areas they’d like to get rid of. It could be a viable option once more weight is lost and you have stubborn fat that needs to be removed. Your doctor will determine if treatment is right for you during a one-on-one consultation. Best of luck!

Congratulations on your efforts...and yes, dieting is a slow and arduous process.  So easy to put on a few pounds and so hard to shed them....  Zeltiq CoolSculpting is meant primarily for those close to their ideal weight that are looking to help smooth and sculpt some of the more stubborn 'problem' areas....belly, love handles, bra fat, etc. Think of it more of, pardon the expression, the icing on the cake of your weight loss...CoolSculpting will help closer to the end of your journey to help with the contours and really add the finishing touches to your hard work.  Stay the course! You'll be so glad you did!
