It's been 6 months since I had my procedure done on my upper and lower abs. I see no results at all. As a matter of fact my stomach is bigger. I continue to workout and eat healthy but this belly won't go anywhere. I have an appointment to see the technician that performed the procedure. I just want to know what other possibilities could it be as to why it did not work for me. Thank you
Answer: Coolsculpting Results Poor, Now With Bigger Stomach Ive had many patients who have not seen results from coolsculpting or gotten reactive fat cells. This is variable. In general though, the area only improves 15-25% each treatment, so multiple treatments are needed. I suggest hi definition liposuction if you want a more defined and dramatic appearance. There is only so much that can be done by non-invasive options. Best, Dr. Emer.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Why does coolsculpting not work for some people There are lots of reasons that coolsculpting may not work. The fact that you say the stomach is bigger may be related to a rare risk of coolsculpting where the fat actually hypertrophies. This is difficult to ascertain without seeing photos but it may also be that you were unsuitable for various reasons.In general the effects of coolsculpting are mild and it may that you did not notice the small change or you need further multiple treatment sessions. It has to be remembered that coolsculpting is not a bodycontouring surgery like liposuction. I have written a piece on why coolsculpting may not work and what your options are which you can read below

Answer: Why CoolSculpting May not have worked I'm sorry to hear CoolSculpting did not work for you. Not everyone is a candidate for the CoolSculpting procedure or it just may be that you need multiple sessions to achieve desired outcome. Talk to your practitioner and see if additional treatments are needed. Good luck!

Answer: No results after Coolsculpting. Why? I'm sorry to hear this did not "work" for you, but I would want to see before and after photographs, as well as know your weight before Coolsculpting and now. The only reason I ask this is that I hear nearly daily that "I eat healthy and continue to workout, but this belly won't go anywhere . . .but bigger!" I'm not accusing you of anything, but let's just say that this is something I hear pretty frequently, and it's not usually due to failure of a modality or poor work, though it certainly CAN be!So that's one possibility: you out-ate and under-exercised your results. Let's hope not.Another is that you had inadequate treatment, and that additional or "better" sessions are required.Another possibility is that you had unrealistic expectations, or really are a candidate for other options.One other possibility is that the fat was not external as much as internal, and a lax abdominal wall may be allowing the intra-abdominal contents to protrude more, even though the subcutaneous fat was indeed reduced.Check the credentials of the "technician" who performed your procedure. What kind of doctor supervises this person, and have you considered seeing this doctor instead of the technician? Best wishes! Dr. Tholen

Answer: Why CoolSculpting May Not Work Hi Marilyn. Thanks for your question. Without seeing your before and after pictures and doing an in-person examination it is extremely difficult to determine why CoolSculpting did not work for you. In general, the main reasons someone may not see results from CoolSculpting include not being a suitable candidate for the treatment in the first place. It may also be that you need multiple treatments to see results. Another possibility is that the incorrect applicators were chose or they were not appropriately placed. If you have not already, make sure you go over your before and after pictures with your provider. Sometimes we don't notice the results ourselves, but they are clearly noticeable on the before and after pictures. Make sure all of your concerns are addressed by your provider. Hope this helps.
