It is has been two days since I had the cool sculpting procedure on my stomach. I had two treatments on each side of my abbs. The only pain I have had is a little tenderness to the touch and numbness. The worst part is getting the lines off my stomach from the markers...lol. They need to come up with a better solution for marking your skin. The actual procedure was not painful, it was tolerable. Of course it is to early to see results but will keep you updated :-)

Oh, boy...watch out! Me, too! I was fine for a couple of days, too. I had my treament on Friday. Saturday wasn't bad. I couldn't bend over, very tender, and very swollen. Went to the grocery store, walked a little funny due to the soreness. Sunday was worse, as walking seemed to jiggle all the nerve endings. Sunday night, I felt a few stabs, nothing bad. I thought...okay, this might be the beginning. I took Advil and Tylenol all day as well. That night I woke up around 3am so took more pain meds. Monday was much worse. The same sharp stabbing, shooting, rapid fire, electrifying pains started to happen during the day. But, I had some relief as it wasn't constant. I thought, maybe this is it...but it's too early. Then, I woke up at 1am to take more pain meds and could feel the stinging pangs all night long. I got zero sleep. Then, TODAY! OMG, they just jolt you out of your skin! It is unreal. But, yet, it is the same thing a bunch of other people have reported. Why didn't I believe it could happen to me? I thought what the heck? Only the few suffer and only those folks are posting. But now that I am clearly in that same pool or sufferers, I am now I'm wondering if it's going to get even worse? How about you? How are you feeling today?

I am on my fourth day and I am still feeling fine. My stomach is a little sore to the touch but so far I'm good. I hope you feel better and I pray that I don't end up with the pain you are having.

Oh, good for you. I took 1200mg of Advil twice already per the facility I went to. If it's helping any, it's only slightly. I'm feeling less frequent firings and slightly less intense. They claim this will be my worst day. I hope I can sleep tonight. What worries me most is that the worst may have yet to come. Which would really, really suck. Please pray for me, too!

I had mine done yesterday. A little tender some swelling but not too bad. I've been drinking a lot of water someone told me that helps. I'm preparing for the worst. But all this stabby pak s I am reading about

Sorry*stabby pains. On a scale of 1-10 how bad do they get? Thanks!

Honestly it isn't that bad. My pain was tolerable. I think it may be different for each person. I have a high tolerance of pain. On a scale of 1 to 10, it would have to be a 3. I haven't seen results yet. I hope this works. Good luck :)

Day four. I'm starting to feel the prickly feelings. And a bad sunburn kind of feeling. It's annoying. All I want to do is stay in bed and sleep so I can ignore it! Lol

It will pass, trust me...lol. Today made three weeks for me and I'm completely over the numbness and itching. Honestly, I think I'm seeing a little amount of results. Wishful thinking maybe. I hope it works. Good luck, the pain will pass :)

Day 6. I'm feeling good save for a few sharp pains. Loved reading your review ! Helped a lot

Hope your feeling better! This Saturday will make a month. I'm hoping I start seeing more results.

It has been 1 month and 13 days and I have noticed no changes. I know they say it could be up to 6 months but I'm having doubt. I should have saved my money and put it toward liposuction.

I had mine done over a year ago and the best advice I can give to help with the pain is to wrap the area with an ace bandage. It really helps!!!
