had coolsculpting done one week ago. I had terrible bruising which is beginning to subside but the itching is almost unbearable. I have a prescription for Gabapentin which helps somewhat. Is this normal?
Answer: Itching after CoolSculpting Itching is a normal side effect of Coolsculpting so don’t be alarmed. This may persist up to 2 weeks following your procedure. I recommend taking oral Benadryl for this. You can also try icing the area as some patients find this to help.

Answer: Itching After CoolSculpting Itching can sometimes occur after treatment. It is always best to consult with the provider that did your treatment so that they can assess your issue and provide you with some options for relief. Oral antihistamines and topical hydrocortisone cream can help relieve itching and rashes, but definitely contact your physician in order to be evaluated properly.

Answer: I have unbearable itching after Coolsculpting a week ago, is this normal? Itching after a Coolsculpting treatment is not a very common reaction. I suggest returning to your provider and explaining the sensation, especially if there appears to be a rash on the skin.

Answer: Itching after Cool Sculpting There are instances where patients have had significant bruising. The entire area should be evaluated by the provider for other skin problems. Anti-inflammatories are helpful. You have been placed on Gabapentin which is a neuromodulator. It may be helpful. Lyrica is also useful in these cases but should be at you providers discretion.
