It is not uncommon to have
delayed onset pain after a Coolsculpting procedure.  This pain is more
commonly experienced with abdominal Coolsculpting.  It starts 3-5 days
after the procedure and can last 10 days or so.  This pain is nerve based
and is best treated with Neurontin.  Ask your physician to prescribe you
some.
Best of
luck,

Gas pain would not be associated with CoolSculpting one monthly following the procedure.  There is a possibility that you are experiencing delayed onset pain which can occur two to four weeks following the procedure. This is a rare side effect but can occur with cramping and pain in the abdominal region.  I suggest that you contact your CoolSculpting Specialist and let them know of this pain to better advise you.

Lee B. Daniel, MD · Answer

Gas pain should have nothing to do with Coolsculpting.  Delayed onset of pain from Coolsculpting usually occurs within the first week or two.  You usually feel this in the skin tissue.  If you are feeling gas pain there is something else happening and you may want to consult your doctor.

Michele S. Green, MD · Answer

It would not be a side effect to have gas pain after coolsculpting, especially one month later.  I suggest you consult with a GI doctor to determine the cause of your gas to help best treat you.
