No matter how thin I am, I could never get rid of my 'saddlebags', so I decided to try Cool Sculpting. My procedure was yesterday and I have no results to report yet. The pain is minimal with some swelling and bruising, but nothing I can't handle. I'm anxious to see my results! About 10 minutes after the machine was taken off, I had a horrible burning pain that went away in about 15 minutes. Updated on 4 Sep 2014: Day 8 - The 'zinger' pains are almost gone, but I still have numbness in the areas (which is better than pain!). Still a little swollen in the flank area and the bruising is fading now. I will keep you posted! Updated on 6 Sep 2014: I had my right side outer thighs & flanks done today and it didn't seem to be as bad as the left side. Just swollen & bruised for now. The worst part is the massage afterwards!
If the scratches are fresh, keep it moist with Aquaphor healing ointment until completely healed. If scabs develop, do not pick the scabs off until it falls off on it's own. Protect the scratches from the sun to prevent uneven pigmented scars. If dark pigmented scars develop, skin lightening medications like hydroquinone with or without tretinoin can help.
Absolutely! We have had excellent success with treating the bra area. I would recommend that you have a consultation with a provider to see if you are a good canidate and discuss your goals. It can really make a great difference in how you look in your clothes.
