I have had 4 treatments already and it has been very but very painful, even in the low setting. What can I do to minimize pain I bought 16 treatments, so a way to go.

Answer: Discomfort During Sculpsure The Sculpsure treatment can be uncomfortable. Each patient tolerates the treatment differently and the area being treated also plays a role in how the patient will feel. In our office we try to set the expectations for the patient prior to treatment. We do advise them that the treatment is uncomfortable but tolerable. We ask the patients to bring things to distract them and we also have a TV in each treatment room so patients can watch Netflix. We use fans and the Zimmer Chiller which provides cold air for the patients to use during the treatment. We also advise the patient to be hydrated prior to treatment and they can also take acetaminophen if they choose.

Answer: Pain Management and SculpSure SculpSure can be painful depending on the areas treated. Most often we try to distract our patients with conversation, although sometimes this isn't enough. We also use fans, music, and ice packs. I encourage patients to have their phones with them for distraction too. If it is really painful I am okay with pre-treating a patient with Hydrocodone if needed. Hang in there. The results are truly worth it.
