I did the procedure on my lower and upper abdomen 3 weeks ago. Still painful and itchy, is it common? Please help.
Answer: Why can Cool Sculpting cause painful itching? This maybe simply due to irritation of the sensory nerves. The first step is to use anti-inflaamatories and over counter tylenol. Other medications like Lyrica maybe necessary.Body reshaping can be performed with a cannula that removes fat via liposuction or with noninvasive technology like Cool Sculpting. With Cool Sculpting there is no cannula inserted into your body. All treatments are performed on the surface from the outside in using technology that freezes the fat. Don’t hesitate to give us a call in Austin regarding a Body Reshaping Consult at the Upper Room. On our Facebook Page there is an Interview I recently did with KVUE, a local news station in Austin, that was picked by affiliates around the United States, including Miami. During the Interview we discussed the technology of Cool Sculpting as well as it application process.

Answer: It is quite normal post treatment side effect - should resolve! Itching is one of the possible side effects after the Coolsculpting. It normally lasts for 3-4 days but in rare cases it may take 2 weeks before it gets better. Other common side effects include mild bruising, cramping, needles and pins sensation under the skin or tingling. You can take Motrin or Ibuprofen and if your symptoms last for more than 2 weeks you should contact your doctor for an evaluation.

Answer: Itching after CoolSculpting Typically, there is minimal to no downtime after CoolSculpting though patients may experience temporary pain or discomfort. Side effects can include redness, bruising, swelling, tenderness to the touch, cramping, itching, tingling, and numbness. Itching is a normal side effect, and should subside in time. Best of luck.

Answer: Mild discomfort after Coolsculpting is common
Many patients experience mild discomfort (tingling, soreness, itching) after Coolsculpting. A small minority of patients experience moderate to severe discomfort. Thankfully, the discomfort persists for only a few weeks.
To help control pain, I recommend starting off with tylenol and ibuprofen. For patients that need additional pain relief, gabapentin (a medication that helps with nerve pain) can be very helpful.

Answer: Itching and soreness after zeltiq
CoolSculpting does cause fat cell death and the body metabolizes the dead cells. You may be experiencing greater than normal itching and soreness but in all likelihood this should all go away. See your doctor to be examined.
