A popular body contouring procedure that’s supposed to freeze away stubborn bulges for good did the opposite for a Barton County woman. Now she’s suing a Wichita plastic surgery clinic, claiming it failed to warn her of a rare, plumping side effect of “Cool Sculpting,” The Wichita Eagle reports.
In addition to seeing fat increase in her body, the woman developed a benign tumor in her liver after she underwent nonsurgical fat-cell freezing, according to a negligence suit filed this spring in Sedgwick County District Court. She received three of the treatments over a 16-day period about 2 1/2 years ago.
