What Are the Most Common Problems Encountered in Coolscuplting?

CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared for the flanks (love handles) and abdomen and is proven to be a safe and effective treatment. Typically, there is minimal to no downtime after the treatment though patients may experience temporary pain or discomfort. Side effects can include redness, bruising, swelling, tenderness to the touch, cramping, itching, tingling, and numbness. Numbness can persist up to several weeks after a procedure. 

Thank you for your question.

The most common risks associated with coolsculpting would be tenderness of the area, tingling sensation, bruising and/or burning sensation.  These seem to be self limiting (go away on their own with time).

Best Wishes!

CoolSculpting is a very safe treatment that has low risks. It is a non-surgical contouring treatment which freezes fat which is naturally eliminated from your body. There are some pulling, tugging or cramping feelings during the initial part of the treatment which subside after a few minutes. Then, there can be some bruising for a few days after the treatment with some numbness and tingling feelings remaining for a few weeks post treatment.
