What's the best topical pain relief after CoolSculpting?

In some instances, there can be some pain as you describe after a CoolSculpting treatment to the abdomen.  There is not a topical cream that I am aware of that would help, but there is a prescription oral medication used to treat neuropathy that can help.  You should contact the physician who treated you to discuss your issue and treatment.

I have found that this type of burning pain is best managed with Gabapentin (Neurontin).  It can last for up to 2 weeks.  In all cases it subsides.  It appears to be due to temporary nerve hypersensitivity.  Topical anesthesia will be of no use because the nerves involved are in the subcutaneous region.

I have been doing coolsculpting for years and have not medicated anyone during the procedure.  Can you please confirm that you had Coolsculpting by Zeltiq at a doctor's office.  I would return to your treating physician for examination.  Please let me know what happens.

There is a non-narcotic prescription medication that can help with pain following CoolSculpting. Most people find they do not need it, but always find a practice wend and operated by a physician with physicians, nurse practicers and physicians available to manage medication for you if needed.
