70% of Boston reviewers said CoolSculpting was worth it
I had my upper abdomen done. Previous lipo if the abdomen caused a fullness in the upper abd area. I was able to use 1 paddle (or applicator). I was shocked after it was removed - it was like my upper abd was a frozen stick of butter (gross!). I massaged it per instructions and 6 month later there is a noticable difference. Not trying to hide the roll that was always there anymore. Can't... more
“One Year out - No Noticeable...”
I would not do it again. I see no results. I weighed 124 lbs a year ago - and fit into my pants the same as I do today. I weigh 124 lbs now. I didn't expect to lose weight. I did expect to fit into my tight pants a little more comfortably. Wasted money. Plus, the area was sore (like I did too many sit ups) for a couple of days. more
“Coolsculpting of Lower Abdomen”
I decided to get coolsculpting done because I was unhappy with the contour of my body after gaining and losing a ton of weight before and after having a child. After losing the last 20 pounds, my body shape began to become very disproportionate. I have a natural hourglass figure, and as those last few pounds came off, my waist shrunk, leaving localized pockets of... more
“Pain Pain and More Pain - Waltham, MA”
I am in pretty good shape and work out at least 4 times a week and watch what i eat. My abs have always bothered me and I wanted them to be a little less flabby before my upcoming wedding this summer. I booked an appointment for both my lower and upper Abs but decided to just go for my lower abs instead to see how ht procedure goes. The Aesthetician used the large head on my lower abs.... more
I work for those that invented coolsculpting and even I was spectacle about what could happen. I had the procedure completed in April of 2011, I also thought I wasted money and then by July and August, wow the results were amazing, I worked out, changed my diet to a more healthier one and I saw the reduction in my abdomen section. I am currently working with a trainer and I am 41 and finally... more

“Cool Sculpting is Great! - Boston, MA”
I had Cool Sculpting done on 09-15-2011, a 1 hour treatment which was pain free and no side effects. When the doctor initally placed the machine on my stomach I felt a pulling sensation but other than that the procedure did not hurt. The next day I went to the clothing store and tried on a size 12 pants. Prior to Cool Sculpting I fit into a solid size 14 as the size 12 could not fit. Cool... more
“Didn't Work at All! - Massachusetts”
Had my belly and love handles done 5 months ago and have been waiting to post to give it some time. It was a huge waste of money. The procedure was uncomfortable but fine. There was ZERO improvement. In fact, I still have some nerve damage on my belly (I don't have the same sensation when I scratch it). Also, I have lost a bit of weight (maybe 5 lbs) and noticed that my hips and belly... more
I had my abdomen & love handles done twice and after a few months i am happy with the results! The doctor was very traight forward when discussing expectations- it works best for people who are relatively in shape but have problem areas BUT anyone CAN get the treatment but should know that they will need more than one treatment which can add up BUT to have it be non invasive, no down time... more
“Can't Wait to See the Results -...”
After many many months trying to decide whether I wanted smartlipo or zeltiq I decided on the Zeltiq procedure just for the facts that I wanted to be able to get up and out and get on with my daily routine. I've researched the company and read every review on this site. I've struggled with my love handles now for 4 years, even went to a trainer and nothing would get rid of... more
“Zeltiq One Month Ago - YES!! It's...”
I had Zeltiq exactly one month ago on flanks andlower abdomen with standard size applicator. I am a 42 yo female with 3 kids including twins. I am very active but exercising 5-6 days a week and training for 1/2 marathons was never going to remove the stubborn fat that accumulated after having kids. I am 5'9" and weigh 148 lbs. The procedure itself was no big deal at all, yes it... more
“A Bit Uncomfortable at First with...”
This was the best thing I've ever done. I've always had a pooch in my abdominal area. Now after three treatments it's totally flat. It was a little sore and numb for a few weeks. Took about a month to see results. So worth it. I recommend it to anyone with a few problem areas that don't improve with diet and excercise. more
