It can take up to 12 weeks to see the full effect from a CoolSculpting treatment, so since your second treatment was only about 3 weeks ago, you need more time to see the effect from your procedure.  Be sure to follow up with the physician who treated you so that your progress can be checked.

I tell my patients that seeing final results from CoolSculpting can take up to 6 months, although some people do see signs of improvement earlier. Keep eating right and staying active to keep your weight steady in the meantime, and follow up with your CoolSculpting technician if you have any concerns.

Nancy Becker, DO · Answer

It is hard to say as I don't know what your body looks like. However, CoolSculpting is proven to work and can have varying amounts of reduction per person as everyone's body is different. The company has always told me not to take measurements, as you may not necessarily lose inches, but you should definitely go back into the clinic and view your before and after photos. I always wait 2 whole months before bringing people back in for post procedure pictures as it really can take 2-4 months to see a full result. If you just got another treatment done September 6th I would wait another month to 6 weeks before determining.
Hope that helps!

Thank you for your question. Without pictures it is hard to assess your concern. Sometimes is can take up to several months for a noteable change. It is a 20-25% reduction when treated. It also important to to note during your consultation, there is a clear understanding of expectations and outcomes prior to treatment. There are other factors that can play a role in results, such a hormones, stress and diet. I recommend seeing your practitioner with another follow up to discuss your concerns. Best, Dr.Bloch

Michele S. Green, MD · Answer

Coolsculpting is the number one non-invasive fat reduction method in the country because it works so well.  The full results take 4 months so that is why you certainly would not see any results after just a few weeks.  It really matters that you go to an expert in Coolsculpting for the proper placement and results.  Best, Dr. Green
