Beware of CoolSculpting at this clinic or others – the machine can either harm your body or prove completely ineffective. Despite promises from a deceptive salesperson during my consultation that 3 rounds of Coolsculpting with 2 applicator each time can give me and ideal body after 30 weeks, after the first round, I realized the treatment was inefficient. I communicated many times but each time they wanted me to wait. Don't be fooled by their claims of waiting; eight months have passed, I've lost over 16 pounds, but my tummy is larger than before. I paid around 4K and now feel worse. The clinic suggests buying more CoolSculpting for better results, but this fat-burning technique has lots lawsuits for body deformation and inefficiency. Please just google. Avoid being deceived by LaserBody MD – an irresponsible clinic with disappointing results.
I have done CoolSculpting on my abdomen (both upper and lower) April 1st (6 weeks ago). Bloating was noticeable from 2nd week post treatment. I am still very bloated and I feel like I am getting bigger and bigger on my abdomen.I look like "B" shape from side look. My weight is the same but I look like a pregnant person! It is awful to see myself like this :( Is this normal to be still bloated 6 weeks post treatment and the bloating not even reducing?! Am I ruined my body?

Updated on 26 Jun 2021: I am right at 3-month post coolsculpting and my abdomen grew double a size. I can't even suck it in. It is disaster and I look like a 7-month pregnant women. I wish I had never had a this treatment on my abdomen! :( Be away from this procedure on your abdomen, it can easily go wrong. I am trying to do lipo to correct the coolsculpting. It is crazy when you thin you have to do a surgery to correct a non-surgical procedure! Updated on 21 Jul 2021: Now that I have faced this side effect (which I don't know what it is yet!), I have gone back to the practice place and found out the clinic has no "Physician" onsite! OMG! Can you beleive a clinic offering a cosmetic procedure in a big city like Toronto doesn't have a physician! I didn't know that and this is how they play it well to get you in for a treatment! I feel so dumb that I have fallen into this scam! They play it really well that you don't feel like to ask for a physician or so... The only thing that the practice place offered me is to contact Zeltiq on behalf of me (Thanks!). Now, it is over 2-months they have contacted Zeltiq andZeltiq has suggested me to visit my family doctor, Now that this happened to me, I am doing more deep searches on the internet and found out they are several people out there that are suffering from PAH or similar problems like mine (growing larger than before!) and even people are talking about sue cases (but not sure what is the status!). My only advise to you is to be away from this procedure! It doesn't worth the risk, sometimes work and sometime get even worse :(( I just feel so sad and misinformed and disturbed by all what is happening to me. I wish I neve have fallen into the advertisements :(( Updated on 9 Aug 2021: Not happy with my experience at all! Purchased a CS package a couple of months ago, I did one round of CS on my upper and lower abdomen, and soon after I noticed an aweful side effect, extremly bloated swollen and larger than before!! I got back to this place, and the nurse took pictures. I asked for their doctor to visit me, and soon learned that there is no actual physician (aka doctor) at this place. The nurse told me that she is in contact with the provider, Zeltiq, but up to now, after 4 months, no response from the provider and there is no clue what is happening to my body. Meanwhile, LaserbodyM.D. is holding on my money and not refunding my money (not even remaining of "not used" treatment sessions) although they are fully aware of the adverse side effects of CS on my body. I am in contact with them for almost 3 months asking for a refund and there is no clear response or act on this. It is super annoying to see that "sales" is the priority...I am so bothered as now my health, my money and my time are all wasted! I am regretting, I wish I have never fallen into advertisements of this place!
