I had Coolsculpting done on my thighs (inner, outer, banana roll) several months ago. Yesterday I did coolsculpting on flanks & arms. My right arm feels extremely swollen and much harder in comparison to my left arm. Is paradoxical adipose hyperplasia a concern if I have had Coolsculpting done before with no adverse side effects?
Answer: CoolSculpting It will not develop in one day. Please return to your provider for an examination of the area. This should represent swelling after treatment.

Answer: Swelling and hardness 1 day post CoolSculpt Hello clanni23,Swelling, firmness and tenderness is common in the first few days after CoolSculpting so too early to jump to any conclusions. PAH is rare and we don't know what causes it so it may be possible to happen in an isolated area and not in all the other areas that have been treated. Monitor your recently treated areas with your provider.Congratulations on having your procedures, especially your upper arms which were recently approved as a treatment area.Best of luck,Oscar A.

Answer: COOLSCULPTING NJ Hyperplasia side effects aren't seen for about 3 months after being treated. Sounds like you have some swelling to the area that has been treated, which is normal. Hyperplasia isn't common on the arms or with the smaller applicator. It generally is on the lower abdomen with the larger applicator. I would follow up with the office you were treated.Best of luck!

Answer: Paradoxical Hyperplasia Having had previous cool sculpting has not been clinically proven to increase your chances of PH for subsequent treatments. I'm sure your treating physician or nurse told you about arms being off label still at this time so though I don't think one day after treatment you should be worried about PH, if it's extremely swollen and hard I would be seen by the nurse or doctor. We do not typically have those symptoms the day following cool sculpt. Best of Luck.

Answer: Coolsculpting Concerns and Results--Add Radiofrequency, Thermage, Vanquish, Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra Hyperplasia is rare but can occur in any areas of coolsculpting. Moderate swelling, which can be asymmetrical, is normal after Coolsculpting and should resolve in several days to weeks. Coolsculpting results can take up to 3-4 months. For best results with Coolsculpting, I recommend a combination approach. I recommend adding radiofrequency treatments like Vanquish, Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra for skin tightening and with Z wave/Cellutone for skin smoothing. VASER with ThermiRF is the best alternative if you want a more contouring outcome. If you have someone that has PAH you should send them to a physician like myself that treat this complication with liposuction.Best, Dr. Emer
