Why do doctors dislike "home CoolSculpting" ice pack self treatment?
aguy38Nov 18, 2017
A few days ago I asked about a self treatment with an ice packs. The answers were, "Don't do it, it's dangerous, it's not effective, and cannot kill the fat cells." Re:efficiency, The tech was invented after "popsicle panniculitis", kids who loved popsicles, lost cheek fat. It seems like ice does kill subcutaneous fat. YouTube is full of hundreds of videos with testimonials of people who claim they lost 1-5 inches in circumference. You can see the results in the video, are they all fake ? Thanks
