Bruising with mini CoolSculpt?

Immediately after the cool mini to the submental area you are red. This usually resolved within 1-2 hours honestly. I believe you leaving on a work trip the following day would be fine. However you may feel a little numb and sore, sometimes a small amount of discomfort swallowing. Our submental clients report minimal issues following treatment. 

Hello,Thank you for your question. Based on what we've seen bruising and swelling is minimal. It can happen, but it usually isn't severe. Please consult with your provider to discuss the types of results they've gotten. Good luck!

It is unlikely but possible to bruise with Cool Mini.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.

My best,
