I got coolsculpting using the big paddles (coolsmooth) over my inner thighs. procedure went smoothly with no alerts. after the procedure leg was normal. I received the post procedure massage as well. about 2hrs later I felt some swelling and tenderness but bearable... 1 day later I noticed this obvious swelling over my inner thighs... which extended further than the paddles region, see photo attached below. Have any of you had experience with this and will this go away? Also, will I get PAH?

Answer: Swelling after CoolSculpting It's very common to experience swelling where CoolSculpting has been done as a result of inflammation. It may take 2-4 weeks for swelling to resolve. Lymphatic massage and compression will help. One typically sees fat reduction effects as early as 3 weeks but more commonly 60-90 days after treatment. The normal post-procedure swelling that you describe is no indication that you are at increased risk for the rare complication of PAH (paradoxical adipose hyperplasia).
