I went for a consultation and the Dr. Told me I would need 3 sections in order to see results.
I never had any kids and I was very active until I decided to quit smoking. I gained 20lb in 2 years and most of it went to my stomach. I'm 5.8 170lb. So technically I was the perfect candidate to have coolsculpting done.
I just got it done 2 days ago.
Like everyone said, the first 5 minutes were a little painful but nothing too crazy, then the are gets numb and you just relax. I decided to have the sessions done at the same day so I could see the results evenly.
On my upper ab, the Dr. Didn't use the suction device since I didn't have too much skin, we went with another attachment - as a plate- that didn't sucked the skin which was much better.
I will be updating this post as long as I can with my results and so far I recommend to anyone thinking about getting liposuction to try coolsculpting before!
Yes my stomach is bruised, itching and sore but nothing like it's the end of the world. It feels like I went to the gym and had a hardcore workout. I can't wait to see the final results in 6 weeks.

Thanks for your post. I'm in a similar position and had a similar experience (treatment and recovery). Still waiting to see some changes. I am 3.5 weeks out and feel like my tummy is bloated and fat. Trying to be patient for results to show...

IMO, I would not say you are the perfect candidate. This machine is NOT for weight loss! It is for people who have dieted & exercised down to their perfect weight, yet still have stubborn pockets of fat.

Right, Im not concern about weight loss .... if i were Id have gone for a Tummy tuck.

Are you absolutely sure this was a Zeltiq Coolsculpting machine?
