CoolSculpting For C-Section

It is common for women who have undergone a C-section procedure to develop a pouch or shelf over the resulting scar. Although they come in all shapes and sizes, they normally prompt the individual involved to seek out treatments to remove them. Although healthy lifestyle choices like changes in diet and exercise are the preferred method, this does not work for everyone who wants to lose fat in spot areas.

 If you are unhappy with the appearance of postpartum fat deposits that simply refuse to budge despite your best efforts, you should consider undergoing a CoolSculpting treatment. This is a safe and effective treatment that was cleared by the FDA to help remove notoriously unresponsive areas of fat by destroying fat cells through controlled freezing.

How does CoolSculpting work?

 CoolSculpting works through the use of special paddles that reach freezing temperatures. Areas of fat are drawn into the area between these paddles, which freezes fat cells found under the skin. This destroys these fat cells, which are then safely removed by your own body over the following weeks after your safe treatment. CoolSculpting helps to effectively remove fat without harming surface skin tissue.

When is the best time to undergo a CoolSculpting treatment for a C-section shelf?

 Women are normally advised to wait about six months after giving birth to choose any type of cosmetic procedure. Even though CoolSculpting does not involve surgery, your body has already been through a lot, so you need to let it fully heal and recover from the ordeal of childbirth before undergoing any type of elective procedure.

Would I make a good candidate for CoolSculpting?

Most women make excellent candidates for removing C-section shelves with CoolSculpting. You just need to be in good overall health and realize that the treatment is not meant as  a replacement for healthy lifestyle choices. CoolSculpting can help remove stubborn fat deposits, but you must keep your weight under control after the procedure, as remaining fat cells can subsequently expand in size.
