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: 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.

Answer: Red and Warm following Cool Sculpt I am sorry to learn of your recent issues following Cool Sculpt. Most patients will have a 2 week "recovery" following this procedure which often includes some swelling, discomfort and bruising. It is not part of the normal recovery, however, to develop red and hot skin/soft tissue. I would recommend returning to the medical professional who performed your procedure for his/her evaluation.
