I went in today for a second round of coolsculpting on my abdomen, but the tech was unable to get a good fit on the small or large either applicator head. The tech suggested waiting one month (3 months post first round) and coming back for evaluation and to see if I wanted to just use the flat plate (without suction) since I am obviously seeing results from my first session (her words, not mine). I'd like to hear if anyone else believes this is a good plan?

Thank you for your question. Coolsculpting will kill fat cells evenly throughout the treatment area. It is likely the irregularities will remain after a treatment. That being said, please schedule a consultation with your surgeon to discuss your options. Have a wonderful day,
