Is it normal to be this red after 24 hrs from zeltiq coolsculpting? This is on my love handle and upper abdomen. I did it on my lower abdomen but there's no redness or bruises there. The machine used was a legit zeltiq machine, and the gel pad was applied beforehand. It doesn't hurt or sting, only when I press it. Are these just gigantic hicky marks? Or would they be burns or something bad?

It is possible that a nerve in your arm was irritated during the coolsculpting process and as a side effect, you are feeling numbness in your fingers. Luckily, this will most likely revise itself and go away on its own, though I would mention it to your treating doctor.
30 minutes is not a typical treatment. Zeltiq deems any treatment less than 50 minutes to not be a complete coolsculpting treatment. Make sure that the center is listed on the coolsculpting.com website as an approving coolsculpting center.
The new cool smooth piece is fabulous for the other thighs. It takes two hours on each outer thigh to perform. 1500 is the standard price for each thigh. For the best results please consult a board certified dermatologist with a great deal of experience with these new applicators and coolsculpting.
