I Am a Runner Considdering Coolsculpting on my Inner Thighs, How Much Down Time Should I Expect?

February 21, 2012
Asked By:rsalad in kcmo

I am concerned with my skin looking saggy in that area and with them looking uneven. I have read that you can continue to workout after the procedure, does this include running 6-8 miles 5x a week? Or should I plan on some down time, if so how much? My inner thighs just do not seem to budge even with all the running I do. I am very excited to try this but also nervous. Will my skin have a red area where it was treated? If so, does that last very long? I would like to do it before vacation.
