I had coolsculpting a year ago and was left with 3 rock hard, golf ball size nodules? (Photos)

In reviewing your photos it is hard to determine what the nodules or lumps may be. I suggest you have  in person consultation with a board certified Dermatologist of Plastic Surgeon to see what the best options would be. I would not suggest having Coolsculpting in these areas again, as Coolsculpting targets pinchable fat.

It is possible to form inflammatory nodules after CoolSculpting treatment, however, these usually fully resolve within a matter of months. It is rare to have them a year after treatment. You would need an in-person examination to fully evaluate these nodules. I would not recommend additional CoolSculpting treatments. Liposuction may be an option. Best wishes.

It is difficult to evaluate the nodules without an in person examination. It is possible to form inflammatory nodules after CoolSculpting treatment. Typically, they resolve in a few months. I would not have any more Coolsculpting until they resolve. 

  Dear Tricia billings:  Nodules after CoolSculpting are rare but in the last have always resolved without further treatment, and generally quickly. I suggest that you avoid any further treatments until these resolve.  You might consider asking your doctor to have someone from Zeltiq evaluate you as well.   All the best,   Dr. Clark 

It is possible that you are describing paradoxical adipose hyperplasia (PAH), a rare complication of cryolipolysis (0.0051% incidence in one study). If that is the case, further CoolSculpting is not recommended. I would recommend evaluation by an expert who can confidently diagnose your condition. PAH does not resolve on its own and liposuction (e.g. ultrasound-assisted VASERlipo) has been shown to be an effective treatment.
