Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I'm 16 days out from the procedure. The pain stopped at Day 13 for me. I was able to sleep for the first time that night too which is great. So now my tummy is still a bit numb (not sore) but I don't think about it at all. No itchiness and thankfully no pain. My stomach is still plump and I see absolutely no signs of the procedure working. I'm measuring myself too and I'm still the same. That's all for now!

I'm on Day 12. Still feel pain. The good news is that it's subsiding. It's less frequent and not as intense. I still can't sleep at night. It's much worse at night than during the day. I feel what new mothers must feel. I've grown accustomed to going to bed dog tired then having to wake in the middle of the night to crying. Except the crying is my own! Kidding! It isn't that bad. But I do wake at night, doubled-over headed to get a fresh ice pack for my tummy. My appetite is returning too, which is nice.

I'm on day 11 post procedure and I'm still in pain...
I'm on day 11 post procedure and I'm still in pain. I have no idea when this is going to end. Yesterday, during the day, it was hardly noticeable and I had a fabulous day. I just needed an ice pack a couple of times. At night however, the pain was extreme and I was hunched over to get my hands on Motrin and an ice pack. Neither helped. Thus far, the procedure was not worth the pain I'm going through. As I write this, I'm feeling burning and pin pricks. I'm back at work and I brought my ice pack with me and wore loose clothing just in case. I don't want to go there but Friday I suffered way to much and wish I'd had my ice pack. Wish I'd been told about this...
It also sucks that my appetite is all but gone and Thanksgiving is three days away...

Provider Review
I was never seen by the doctor. Also, there was no opportunity to go back to the doctor for a follow-up to ensure everything was okay with me after the Coolsculpting procedure. (I received a Groupon for this.)
