kq88
I had my abdomen coolscupted with for the first time yester (2 applications on each lower abdomen). The area felt tender after the treatment but when I got home I saw these red marks which I am so afraid it could be stretchmarks! Is this normal and can I do anything with it? I am very worried right now.
