Is someone researching the problem of hyperplasia?

December 26, 2016
Asked By:karenfailinger in Denver, CO

If I had known, I would have not gotten the procedure. I told the tech that I was prone to keloid scar formation. Two and a half months after Cool Sculpting, a hard 6 in long ball formed under my belly button and I cannot bend or sit without it getting in my way. It feels like when the machine was first taken off. I will volunteer my experience to anyone that can spare future patients of this disaster.
