I know bruising is normal after getting coolsculpting done, but my upper abdomen is swelling severely bruised- much more so than my lower abdomen. Is this expected? The photos are from the day after.

Answer: Bruising After CoolSculpting While bruising can happen after CoolSculpting, it was more common with the older applicators that used a lot of suction. We have barely seen any bruising since switching to the newer applicators a few years ago. Bruising can also be seen with the imitation Chinese knock off devices. Are you sure you were treated with an actual CoolSculpting device? Based on your pictures, the applicator placement does not look ideal. Hopefully you will get results. Make sure you are under the care of an experienced physician. Best wishes.

Answer: Bruising after CoolSculpting It is possible to develop bruising after CoolSculpting, but I find bruising is fairly uncommon when using the newer applicators as opposed to the older ones. I am not certain which applicator was used for your treatment. Bruising after CoolSculpting normally will completely resolve over time, but it could take a week or two. Be sure to follow up with the physician who treated you so that your progress can be monitored.
