I had Coolsculpting to my arms yesterday 4/6/16 and my left pinky tip and left ring finger tip are tingly and partly numb today.

Is it common for this tingling and numbness to my pinky and ring finger to still be present the next day? How long does this generally last? Is there something I can do to help it resolve? Thank you for your time!!

There are more options for neck rejuvenation than ever before, and many of them are non surgical. Coolsculpting is an excellent option for patients with moderate to moderate plus neck fullness. It can address a significant amount of fat in the neck and provide some skin tightening, but it will...
