i'm on day eight following cool sculpting of the abdomen. Excruciating pain at day 4. No pain medication nor prescribed Neurontin helps. Pain worse at night. I used the old " heads" with the machine. They now have new heads that are said to be less painful during application. I figured the old heads would give me a better result. We used the jackhammer machine to massage as opposed to manual massage. No intense pain with jackhammer. What I found to help is using a large reusable frozen ice pack (the molable kind work best). use this on top of a shirt being held by a binder or compression garment. Make sure to have a back up in the freezer. Once you take it off once it's warmed up pain immediately returns. Maybe odds be ever in your favor because this [RS bleep] sucks. ❤️
