6 weeks today
Today makes 6 weeks since my cool sculpting procedure. I THINK I see a difference. I exercise 5 days a week, normally but haven't been in a week and a half. Didn't change my eating habits but will starting this coming Monday, so I can possibly get better results. No more pain or numbness but I still itch occasionally. I go back to Ideal Image next month, to do the After photos. Maybe there will be a significant change.

Day 13
The nerve pain is finally gone. Went to the gym today and did 4 miles on the treadmill. Walking more than running because there is still some numbness and discomfort but I'm just happy the nerve pain stopped. I'll update again, in a month. No chaneed in my appearance, so no pictures this time

Oh glad the nerve pain went at this point. I am 6 days post and have only 9 days to my holiday so want it gone by then.

Hope this is a better picture.
I just want to give more information. I went on April 19th and got my upper and lower abdomen and my flanks done. It was considered 12 cycles. They used to large machines on my stomach in a diamond formation. It was considered 8 on my stomach and 2 on each flank. The suction was very uncomfortable and where I had more fat, the more discomfort I had. After 10 minutes, everything went numb. I got there at 8am and after before pictures, marking my body with markers and explaining the procedure, the process began. I got done at 2:30pm. Only 2 bathroom breaks. I was suppose to get my bra fat done but my flanks ended up taking up more of the cycles I purchased before hand.
I was very sore afterwards and ended up calling in from work the next day. It's been 9 days and the only pain I'm having is the nerve pain. Strangely, it's worse on one side more than others. On a scale of 1 to 10, the pain has gotten a up to a 10. I can't say it's WORTH IT because it hasn't been enough time. I was at the gym 3 times a week before this and when the pain subside more, I'm going to start going daily. With all the monew I've spent, this is going to be my motivation to get really serious about my health.
I hope this is enough information to help anyone else thinking about getting this done.

I had my treatment on 4/23 and have been experiencing awful nerve pain for the past 2 1/2 days. I was wondering if you have had any improvement in nerve pain on day 9, rather than day 5? Any tips on dealing with it?

My nerve pain started on day 5. I had tolerable soreness up until then. It is getting better gradually but it's a slow process. The doctor prescribed me gabapentin but it makes me lightheaded. I only take it at night. I massage the areas that gives me problems and thst helps. I even used a heating pad.

It will be 2 weeks next Tuesday and the nerve pain is almost gone. It's still bothersome on the left side of my stomach but I decided to go without a spanx today. I'm tired of the construction and being uncomfortable all day.
