Which do I do first, CoolSculpting or gastric banding?

I’m 50 and about to do either gastric sleeve or banding in the next 6-month to lose approx. lose 30 kgs (also because I have degenerative bones in my ankles), but I do have big upper arms, and I’m nervous that I might get flabby skin. Should I look into CoolSculpting to reduce the fat on my arms before the gastric surgery?

CoolSculpting vs CryoDefine?

I have had consultations in Australia with 2 different systems. The CryoDefine is new here, but in many Australian Skin clinics (chain). It has 2 heads, and say they can do 2 areas at the same time. Can the upper & lower abdomen to be done simultaneously? I would have thought you could not ‘suck up’ as much fat if the applicators were placed side by side? CryoDefine said 2-3 treatments would be required. The CoolSculpting Consultant said that they can’t tell until the full 12 weeks is over.

After Coolsculpting, what happens to new fat coming into the body?

Why is this treatment not for type 1 diabetic people? Please correct me if i am wrong: Coolsculpting is killing fat cells around the treated area. Obviously, other fat cells in other areas still remain. I want to know what will happen to newly consumed fat? The body tends to store fat for “cloudy days” so I guess the new fat will be stored in non-treated areas, which can lead to weird deformations in normally thinner areas like neck, feet, etc.

Coolsculpting under the chin?

I am in my 30’s and always had a little excess fat under the chin from being a teen. What sort of success rate has this treatment had, and is it really as effective as liposuction surgery?
