Complete failure

I went back for my second treatment and was told that I'm not a candidate for cool mini. They took photos to compare to before I got my first treatment and even the clinic agreed my chin is actually larger now. Seems like I wasn't a good candidate to start with even though I do have fat there it wasn't able to be suctioned effectively. Quite upset as this means I already wasted over a grand on the first treatment which they probably shouldn't of given me in the first place. They recommended Kybella but I don't want to go through more money, pain and heart ache if it doesn't work again and I'm still just as insecure about it. They gave me a consultation for lipo which will take a long time to save for now. I feel so disappointed :(

Thank you for your review. I have similar profile and found your review when looking at options. Yes, I think I'll need to get Lipo too but it is expensive and lots of downtime. I was hoping kybella or coolsculpting could do the same, but it seems these non-invasive procedures are hit or miss - and that's a lot of money to risk for a guess :(

If you have a double chin but it's more caused by facial structure than actual fat I would say stay clear of coolsculpting! It didn't even feel like the fat was properly suctioned when I had it so I don't think it froze anything. Kybella may work better but it's a lot of swelling and a lot of patience! I recently saw a surgeon who has recommended braces and jaw corrective surgery for my overbite. Still not sure if it's worth it but I guess that's my next road to research. I had consults for chin lipo but I was worried about the risks and wasn't confident in the cosmetic surgeons skills. Wishing you luck with whatever you chose xx

No results, feeling doubtful :(

Nothing yet, almost seems a bit worse. One side is definitely worse than the other I've noticed. Still considering just going down the lipo route and cancelling the second appointment.

I would wait a bit. a lot of people dont see results until months later. most doctors say that two treatments are recommended to see improvement.

I had my first round in march and second in may and have yet to see any improvement... keeping my fingers crossed for you!
August 21, 2017
Oh no! :( I'm feeling really disheartened at the moment. Let me know if you do notice changes!

No results yet

17 days post and no difference :( probably looks a little worse! Going to keep waiting as I heard 2 months is when Max results are seen, plus I still have another round to go yet. Have been tempted to cancel my second round and have it credited towards liposuction instead but can't decide what's best :(

I'm almost 12 weeks post two overlapping cool mini treatments (four cycles) not seeing any difference so far :( was convinced to do second round now thinking I shouldn't have wasted the money. Hoping and praying I've not wasted nearly $3,000 Canadian!

That's horrible! This is my fear as well :( thinking everyone's body is different and maybe ours doesn't lose the fat as easy :(
August 13, 2017
It's finally looking a bit better, but not like I'd hoped. I have my 16week post follow up with final photos in just over a week. Now I think it looks like loose skin needing tightening.

I think chin results can be a little longer wait than body. That want experience. Don't give p yet. I think it was like 10 weeks for me. I'm waiting to see the results on my second round. I hope you get the results you want.
August 13, 2017
Your results are incredible! When did you first notice results? I'd be extremely happy to get what you got!

my neck was fluffier after two treatments of the coolmini with no results + 3months. (maybe got worse) I know what youre saying though. Im doing lipodissolve now.

It's an awful feeling isn't it! It works so well for some people :( I never wanted to do anything invasive but I don't want to waste my time and money again!
September 8, 2017
I know it is.. I should have stopped after the first treatment but I thought that I would get a little decrease in size at least.

As I have seen ur before procedure pictures and i really think that cool mini is not the suitable procedure for u. Chin augmentation is what you need. As you have mentioned, you are not really obese or fat, so the cause of your double chin is not excess fat, but due to weak chin. I'm not trying to sound know it all but because we have the same case. I have tried lipo dissolve, and exilis to my double chin but none really gave a noticeable result because i have weak chin.
I might look into it but I'm so over non invasive options they just don't seem to do the job for me :(
