I had my love handles and inner thighs done 2 wks ago. The technician was teaching someone else to do it and she let the student massage my inner thigh which was very light and neither one did any "kneading" like I watched on a youtube video. In fact when I asked about how important the massage was, she told me it was just to get the blood circulating it the area again and wouldn't help results! I feel that I didn't get the full treatment the way it should've been done.
Answer: Massage After Coolsculpting Dear Athletemom,Thank you for your question. The massage that takes place after the CoolSculpting procedure is certainly very important. In fact, we find that by increasing the pressure of the massage, we are often able to provide better patient results. My recommendation would include contacting your technician, and setting up an appointment so that they can better address your concerns. Please let us know if you have any other questions that we may answer for you!Sincerely,Dr. P Daniel Ward

Answer: Massage after Coolsculpting Thank you for your questionThe study found that a post-treatment massage provided right after the CoolSculpting procedure has been completed could potentially improve the outcome of the procedure, and result in more fat loss than if no massage was completed. I recommend scheduling a consultation with your doctor to determine your results.Best of Luck ,Andrew T. Lyos, MD, FACS

Answer: How Important Is Massage After CoolSculpting? Massage And Z-Wave After CoolSculpting Optimize Results Giving each of our CoolSculpting patients a treatment with Zimmer Z-wave radial pulsed therapy is the reason that we are now able to remove about 35% of fat per session. Both Z-Wave and manual massage help to break up the weakened fat cells so that they can be more easily and quickly eliminated from the body. This makes your results more uniform and may even speed them up. Zimmer Z-wave improves results by 50% over manual massage. Absolutely do call your practitioner and try to get the massage now that they should have given you directly after treatment. Be sure to consult a board-certified dermatologist who is certified by Zeltiq for your next CoolSculpting session.

Answer: Massaging after CoolSculpting The post-treatment massage helps break down fat cells, improving your CoolSculpting result up to 60%. Zeltiq recommends a 2-minute massage after each CoolSculpting cycle is complete. The massage should consist of kneading for the first minute and a circular massage for the final minute. Results can be further improved with the Zimmer Z-Wave Pro; a device that augments the CoolScuplting treatment and is used in place of a manual massage for a more precise, regulated massage.

Answer: Coolsculpting Results--Add Radiofrequency, Thermage, Vanquish, Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra, VASER, ThermiRF It is unlikely this negatively impacted your results, however if you remain concerned, I recommend following up with your practitioner. Timing is important for the massage. It is recommended massage is completed immediately after procedure for 2 minutes to break up the crystallized fat cells as well as to warm the area by reestablishing normal blood flow. Keep in mind, some people need more than one treatment of Coolsculpting and for best results with Coolsculpting, I recommend a combination approach. I recommend adding radiofrequency treatments like Vanquish, Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra for skin tightening and with Z wave/Cellutone for skin smoothing to improve your final results. However, VASER HI DEF with ThermiRF would give you best results for body shaping, but would require more downtime. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer
