i had 2 cycles on each side done 7 days ago. I had a lot of tingling, prickly sensation on my left side only. Right side sensations were very light. Now the pain is almost 100% gone & tingling has vanished, AND my sides are noticeably uneven!! Left side (where I had much more tingling) is smaller than right. I'm typically an active person, and have lost and gained weight multiple times. I gain and also lose weight very quickly, so seeing results quicker than most is something I expected. Advice pls?
Answer: 6 days after CoolSculpting It is first important to realize that no one is symmetric before their procedure. I would go back and critically look at your before pictures first. The next thing to understand is that there may be some residual swelling from the procedure on one side that might account for some of the differences you are seeing. In general terms, 6 days would be too early to see actual results from CoolSculpting. The earliest that some patients see results is 3-4 weeks. Most patients see results from 1-3 months. Good luck!

Answer: Coolsculpting Coolsculpting is an excellent form of non-invasive fat reduction for the right patient. Some applicators take 1 or 2 hours but the new advantage applicators take only 35 minutes and have significantly less risk for delayed onset pain (especially in the abdomen). Results are seen at 2 months and typically 1-3 treatments will be necessary on each area to achieve ideal results. The number of treatments depends on the amount of fat there and the patient's goals. There is not downtime and the results can be impressive in the right patient. We also use the Zimmer Z-wave for improved patient comfort and added results. The best candidates are those who are in pretty good shape with areas of stubborn fat that won't go away no matter what.I would suggest going back to the Dr who performed the treatment and discussing your results. It helps to look at the before pictures. My best, Sheila Nazarian, MD, MMM Beverly Hills, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: CoolSculpting vs SculpSure and HI DEF 4D CONTOURING Coolsculpting needs multiple treatments for results but wil never give lipo-like results. so if you want full contouring and evenness, I would consider a hi definition procedures with VASER 4D contouring. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Uneven Love Handles Check your pictures before treatment, you will likely notice that your love handle asymmetry existed before the CoolSculpting. Most people have noticeable asymmetry in the love handles to begin with. You may also be a little swollen after your treatment. 7 days is too early to see the results from the actual treatment. CoolSculpting results can be seen in 3-4 weeks with full results around 3 months. Best wishes.

Answer: Early CoolSculpting Results Your swelling, tingling, and pain in the first few weeks are not a good indication of what your final results will be at 2-3 months. Frequently the skin on one side may be more loose or stretched before the treatment, and that side looks more swollen after the treatment. This does not mean that it will still look that way in a few months. Often one side will have more symptoms than the other, and this will not affect the results. Ask your physician at your follow up appointment to review your photos with you if you are still uneven in a few months.
