Is numbness after my coolsculpting normal?

Thank you for your question. Temporary numbness
in the treatment area following a CoolSculpting procedure is one of the typical
side effects. Cryolipolysis, the scientific process on which the CoolSculpting
procedure is based, involves lowering the temperature of fat cells so they
begin to die without harming the skin. But it still cools the area to the point
that a numb sensation remains temporarily after the procedure. This usually
lasts for at least 2 weeks. You should feel comfortable reaching out to the
practice where you got your treatment if you have any concerns. Best wishes.

Thank you for your question, duncanclan1976. Numbness after CoolSculpting is normal. That is one of the many reasons that our patients choose SculpSure again and again. SculpSure beats all of its competitors in head-to-head clinical studies and is the only FDA-approved laser to vanquish fat. Please follow your surgeon's recovery guidelines diligently and do not hesitate to call the office or schedule a follow-up appointment if you have any questions.Best wishes,

Thank you for your question and congratulations on your recent treatment. Numbness and a dull internal itch are just some of the side effects to be expected from CoolSculpting. Different patients experience different side effects, but overall they generally subside within a week or two after treatment.
