CoolSculpting Injury Lawsuit
Our law firm is currently evaluating claims for injuries to victims that have used the CoolSculpting procedure for weightloss. CoolSculpting (cryolipolysis) has promised instantaneous weight loss results since its FDA approval in 2012. The procedure guarantees reduced fat by 20-25% after the first session, which lasts for an average of one hour and requires no post-treatment recovery time.
However, recent studies have reported 60,000 diagnosed cases of paradoxical adipose hyperplasia (PAH), where the procedure has resulted in the growth of more fatty cells and has led to skin hardening in the treated area. Despite its promises, it may be prudent to weigh the risks and benefits before opting for CoolSculpting. If you or a loved one has used the Coolsculpting procedure and experienced (PAH) Paradoxical Adipose Hyperplasia, please contact our law firm as you may be entitled to financial compenstation.
What is (PAH) Paradoxical Adipose Hyperplasia?
Paradoxical Adipose Hyperplasia (PAH) is a rare condition that can occur in some patients after cryolipolysis, a non-invasive fat reduction procedure commonly known as CoolSculpting. This condition results in the opposite effect of what was intended, where the treated area actually increases in size rather than decreasing. While it is not fully understood why this occurs, it is believed to be related to an inflammatory response triggered by the procedure.
Patients who develop paradoxical adipose hyperplasia typically require surgical intervention to remove the affected tissue. As with any cosmetic procedure, it is important to thoroughly research and discuss the potential risks and benefits with a qualified healthcare provider before deciding to undergo treatment.

CoolSculpting Severe Side Effects
It has been reported that some individuals who have undergone the non-surgical fat reduction treatment, CoolSculpting, have experienced a severe side effect known as Paradoxical Adipose Hyperplasia (PAH) or Paradoxical Hyperplasia (PH).
This condition causes new growth of fat cells or other tissue in the treatment area, resulting in bumps, bulges, and hard knots. In some cases, these growths may even develop in a square or rectangular shape, similar to that of a “stick of butter.”
Sadly, this disfigurement may be permanent or require one or more costly surgeries or treatments, such as liposuction, to correct. Consequently, victims may face significant financial costs in addition to the expense of the original CoolSculpting procedure.
