I had upper abs done 3 paddles and lower abs done 4 paddles on the same day. I was on a 1.1 setting and I found it to be painful. It felt like early labor pains. I've been extremely sore since treatment it hurts to go over speed bumps kind of sore. Is this normal?
Answer: Pain and Bruising One Week After SculpSure Sorry you are experience bruising and pain. 75% of patients will experience some pain with an average duration of 7-8 days in the FDA studies. Bruising was only 6% and goes away in about 12 days.If you are having a second treatment, you might try dialing down the setting until you are more comfortable. That would not compromise the results. Fortunately your pain and bruising should go away soon.

Answer: Post SculpSure Soreness is NORMAL Hello, what you are describing is totally normal and expected. Heat form the treatment created inflammation and that's what causes the feeling of soreness for you. it's a good sign. Please avoid taking any anti inflammatory medications and use Tylenol if needed. It will go away. Bruise is very very rare, but will go away. Nothing to be concerned about it. Keep massaging the area and stay very hydrated. Best, Dr.Avaliani

Answer: SculpSure Thank you for your question. Sculpsure may cause patients to feel a little tenderness in the treated areas but this sensation should not disrupt normal activities. Please remain patient because patients can expect to see fat reduction in treated areas in about 6-12 weeks after just one treatment. Always work with a board certified facial plastic surgeon.

Answer: Sculpsure, Pain & Results--Add Vanquish, Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra versus Coolsculpting/Vanquish Yes, there may be some tenderness and/or swelling which may last for 3-6 months after Sculpsure. If you're concerned, I recommend following up with your Doctor for a formal evaluation and oral neurontin for pain management. A combination of treatments is needed for best results with Sculpsure. I recommend combining Sculpsure or coolsculpting with Vanquish and Venus Legacy/Exilis Ultra treatments. A VASER hi definition procedure would give you the best results with fat removal and athletic definition but would require more downtime. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Post treatment soreness Yes. It is normal to be sore. Everyone has their own pain threshold, but the soreness means that things are working. Make sure to drink a lot of water to stay hydrated and if you need to, take Tylenol for the pain instead of Advil. It will resolve as the swelling diminishes. Best of luck.
