Who is not a good candidate for CoolSculpting?
Not everyone is a good candidate for CoolSculpting. CoolSculpting can reduce fat in targeted areas, and is not a weight loss treatment. Patients who are morbidly obese are not candidates. CoolSculpting does not treat visceral fat, or fat within the abdominal cavity. Some people don’t have localized fat deposits and wouldn’t benefit from treatment. Pregnant or recently pregnant women need to postpone treatment. Patients with certain cold-sensitivity disorders such as paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria, cryoglobulinemia, cold agglutinins, or uncontrolled medical problems are not good candidates. Patients with unrealistic expectations are not good candidates.
