I'm 2 weeks post op coolsculpting. Areas are redened and very hot to touch... is this normal? I'm experiencing all other side effects swelling itching mild discomfort... the redness and hotness of skin worries me? I haven't read anyone complaining of this adverse effect. Do I need a antibiotic?

Answer: Coolsculpting I recommend you see the provider to get it evaluated. Redness can persist sometime if you were bruised after the treatment but area feeling hot is usually not the case. Now the extreme case would be if you are having excessive response in the form of inflammation, but only way to determine is by physical examination to rule out any infection (very unlikely). Swelling/itching and mild discomfort are all in the range of symptoms patients feel after treatment. Good luck.

Answer: Redness after Coolsculpting--Contact your Doctor & add Radiofrequency, Thermage, Vanquish, Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra, VASER Some redness can be typical, but feeling hot to the touch is not. I recommend following up with your Doctor for a formal evaluation. Keep in mind, for best results with Coolsculpting, a combination approach is needed. I recommend adding radiofrequency treatments like Vanquish, Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra for skin tightening and with Z wave/Cellutone for skin smoothing. VASER with ThermiRF is a great alternative. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Areas red and hot to touch 2 weeks after CoolSculpting It is not unusual to develop some temporary discoloration after CoolSculpting, and this can include bruising or redness, but I would say that it is unusual to have the area feel hot to touch. I would recommend contacting the physician who treated you so that you can be evaluated in person.
