CoolSculpting Post Procedure Swelling?
I had CoolSculpting done 2 days ago and right now my lower abdomen is extremely swollen. I know it is normal to swell after the procedure but my question is the reason I am so swollen because I had 3 sections of my abdomen sculpted and all of the inflammed dead fat cells are all collectting in the same place?

CoolSculpting ans swelling

Thank you for your question.
The swelling you are experiencing may be normal but if you are thinking that it is extreme, I would recommend that you go and see your doctor so that he/she can check to make sure that all is well.
Sometimes massage and/or anti-inflammatories may help.
I hope this helps.

Swelling after Coolsculpting
You may experience mild swelling after Coolsculpting, but it will all resolve on its own. If you had three areas treated (three applicators placed) on the lower abdomen, then your swelling may be more significant. This swelling will go away in several days to a couple of weeks at most. The dead fat cells are not being mobilized so quickly, nor can they travel to the same area, where you're feeling the most swelling.
