I had Cool Sculpting done on 09-15-2011, a 1 hour treatment which was pain free and no side effects. When the doctor initally placed the machine on my stomach I felt a pulling sensation but other than that the procedure did not hurt. The next day I went to the clothing store and tried on a size 12 pants. Prior to Cool Sculpting I fit into a solid size 14 as the size 12 could not fit. Cool sculpting is so worth it as it's no invasive, no surgeries, or cutting and for me there was an immediate change in my body. I'm very happy!
My Doctor: Emmy M. Graber, MD
My rating:
The physician was Excellent, she had a resident working with her but both were very professional and proficient / well versed with the procedure. From my understanding this Dr has performed over 100 of the Cool Sculpting.

That's a good question! I had to look it up but apparently the fat cells die and are removed via the immune system. They're then either burned as energy or excreted naturally. Not to get too graphic, but you won't see a big lump of fat come out; rather, it's a gradual process and will look like normal waste.
The pain you're experiencing, unfortunately, does sound normal. You're one of the "lucky" 10% that get soreness as a side effect. It's good that you let your doctor know, just so she's aware that you're having side effects.
Hi nallenwelch -- Welcome to RealSelf! Thanks for posting your story so far. Your results should get even better over the next few months as the fat dies and leaves your body, so please keep us posted on your progress. :)
