I have researched coolsculpting for almost two years, including reading every review on this website (which is why I'm writing one), and finally had it done yesterday. I am very skeptical of any type of non-surgical fat reduction device, but I'm convinced this one is effective.

I'm 27, 5'7" 128lbs, work out regularly (6 times a week), and eat very clean healthy and vegan. The procedure itself is fine, the first 10mins are weird and uncomfortable, but not painful at all for me. The machine does suck so hard though, I really got a little worried about my organs for a few minutes, so silly. I've had really no pain whatsoever. Not swollen, bruised or red, but just a little tender, similar to a sunburn. I tried going for a run today, but that hurt. I was able to ride a bike and do crunches just fine though. Fingers crossed, I'll be posting updates and results!

Never saw the doctor, but the trained esthetician Renee who applied it was great. She answered all of my questions and was attentive and sweet.

Hello, I am very interested in this procedure, but very curious about the results. I would love to see you after pics! Can you please keep me posted. I had a c-section 7yrs ago and can't seem to get rid of my pudge.

Thanks

Forgot to put that I had my lower abdomen done with the small applicator.

Still a little numb, but no pain.

I realize this is your 'before" picture, but that doesn't mean I can't think it's nice just the same.

Several days had pass, how are you doing?
Any pain?

Nothing terrible by any means, I haven't had to take any pain meds at all. I'm quite surprised actually, only mild bee sting feelings and some strange feelings (not sure how to describe them, almost feels like electricity if that makes sense), but not painful. Still a little numb though. I do have a high pain tolerance though!

Still a tiny bit numb, which is surprising. Yesterday while on a run, I felt a weird sensation in the area I had done. . . a tingling/electricity like sensation. Still no changes, but it's only been 3 weeks. . . fingers crossed!!!

I just had it done at Oubeauty in Glendale. I had the size 8/large applicator on my lower abdomen. It was pretty cold, and I have to admit that it felt really weird when they massaed the area after the session.

If you are getting this procedure done, Oubeauty is really the only place worth going because they will beat anyone else's price.

I had it done Thursday at Oubeauty on the lower abdomen with the large applicator. It was pretty cold but tolerable. I don't have a ton of fat in the area. My only concern is that somehow the cells were not "frozen" enough to die, which is not really based on anything I have read.

I chose Oubeauty because they had the best price. For a procedure like this, that is easy to administer, I think the place with the lowest price is best
