I had coolsculpting 15 days ago (small machine one hour each side on lower abdomen). Now my lower stomach feels like I have implants on either side of my belly button. It perfectly shows where the machine sucked, and I can move it around, and it looks like a plastic implant, it's hard, tender, and is scaring me. My dr. told me to massage it, which I've been doing with a back massager for the past two days, with no breaking it down. Is this normal, or completely out of the norm?
