Two weeks ago I had my left flank area done and one week ago I had the right side done. The right side has a large, hard painful lump and I was wondering if this will ever go away! Would massaging the area help or applying ice? What is causing it?

Answer: Lump after CoolSculpting A very tiny percentage of patients treated with CoolSculpting (of more than half a million treatments, it has been reported in just a handful of patients) develop small firm areas in the treated zone. These usually resolve within 2 to 4 weeks and do not cause any harm.It is also conceivable that you have a hematoma, which shoukd resolve as well.Your treating dermatologist should be able to tell you which condition is present.

Answer: Coolsculpting side effects Coolsculpting induces a process by which a percentage of fat cells are killed (this was actually developed by two Harvard Dermatologists) and the body clears then over weeks. You might be having this lump as part of the healing and clearing process so don't get too worried. It would be best if you saw your treating physician to evaluate you as often its easier to evaluate in person. They can give you guidance on how to handle the discomfort.
