Before I had 2 side areas done below my belly button, & the left & right sides of my love handles done, I measured 42" around. The day after (& now - 9 days later) I measure 46" around while still being numb & sore. Coolsculpting was to reduce my fat in each area by 20-25% with each treatment, yet now I'm fatter around the belly. What gives?
Answer: Swelling and Results Post Cool Sculpting Swelling after abdominal is normal. In the first few days and weeks after the procedure, you may experience redness, bruising, swelling, tenderness, cramping, and aching in the treatment area. It is also normal to experience itching, skin sensitivity, or numbness. Results can be seen in 3 weeks after the coolsculpting treatment. However, the most dramatic results are seen between 1-3 months.

Answer: CoolSculpting Results After CoolSculpting, patients can experience redness, bruising, and swelling of the treatment areas. It can take 3-4 months for patients to see results as it takes time for the body to filter and eliminate the frozen fat cells. With each CoolSculpting treatment, patients can reduce fat up to 25%, but results do vary with patients. Follow up with your board-certified plastic surgeon if you notice any concerning side-effects. Good luck!

Answer: Initial Swelling from CoolSculpting Most patients have swelling to the area treated up to 2-3 weeks after their CoolSculpting treatments. Abdomen swelling can feel and look like menstrual bloating. We call CoolSculpting - Slow Motion Liposuction. Best results are at 90 days, not 9 days. Make sure your weight remains the same too. Most patients do see a visible difference with Coolsculpting at around 45-60 days post treatment. Keep in mind that the 20-25% fat reduction is only for the specific area treated. CoolSculpting does not offer what Liposuction can. Moderate to dramatic results that are quickly achieved are a result of Liposuction, not CoolSculpting. The ideal candidate for CoolSculpting is within 40 pounds of their ideal weight and have a stubborn or trouble spot/region.

Answer: CoolSculpting Treatment CoolSculpting is a permanent fat reduction technology that uses cold to destroy fat cells. This process takes time so full results are not typically seen for 3 months. Some of the known side effects of CoolSculpting are swelling and numbness to the treated areas. These effects are typically self-resolving in a few days and do not require any interventions. Some patients experience a burning sensation around 5 to 10 days after the treatment as well. However, if you have any concerns, it is best to follow-up with the provider that preformed the treatment. Generally waist circumference measurements are not a good clinical indicator of efficacy. There are many variables that can affect the waist circumference, including tape placement and amount of pressure used to take the measurement. Before and after photos taken 3 months after treatment are usually the best measure of success. Also, the 20-25% reduction refers to the total number of fat cells in the area, not the number of inches. These numbers were derived from clinical studies using ultrasound to assess the thickness of the layer of fat. CoolSculpting is a wonderful treatment for stubborn areas of fat, but results do take time. At nine days, you are still certainly swollen from the treatment. Most patients notice early results around 5 weeks post-treatment. Best of luck in your recovery! Dr. Mehta
