Actually I should make this a little more accurate
$2,701
I feel like on the sides of my neck there was a difference, but the double chin I felt there was no change.
Itt does seem to be slightly worse. I do not think it is worse due to the treatment, just maybe worse due to aging another 7 months...sigh. The treatment was done in the middle of winter where I am usually 10 lbs heavier and i have actually lost 15 lbs since it is summer so it is not as if I have gained weight. Anyway, I read that other doctors have done kybella after cool lipo to clean it up so not sure if that will be an option for me. I am leaving my review as not sure because I really am not sure if there was any improvement or enought improvement for the cost.

August Pic after treatment
The pictures posted before were after the treatment when i was swollen. I just donnt see much improvement unfortunately. 4 months after the treatment my neck felt thinner and i could see a difference in pictures. Forward 3 months later it feels fat again.

ORIGINAL POST
Too Early to Tell, but Hopeful About Submental Chin Fat
I had cool sculpting mini done under the chin 2 weeks ago on the left side and 1 week ago on the right side. The reason they were spaced two weeks apart was due to the machine shutting off for safety reasons on the right side. The experience for me initially was no great. I guess due to the placement of the machine, it was tugging/pulling too hard and was causing a shooting pain that for me was extremely uncomfortable in the back of my neck. After calling the nurse back in, they adjusted the machine and all was a lot better. The first 5 minutes really suck, but then it becomes numb and cold and the rest of the 45 minutes is tolerable. The left side was next and same thing happened with the pulling/tugging. Unfortunately for me when she tried to readjust the machine shut down. I guess if the machine receives a difference in temperature as a safety precaution it turns off. I came back in a week to receive the left side of the face. The first treatment left a red mark under my neck for a week that went away. The second treatment did not. Both treatments I had pretty decent swelling and numbness under the chin, but nothing unbearable. There is still weird sensations at the present time which is 2 weeks out (left) and 1 week out (right). The only complaint I have so far is that starting less than 24 hours after the second treatment I am having a annoying nerve-like sensation in my feet. During the day it is really not bothering me because I am active and busy, where it become noticeable is in the middle of the night between 3 and 5 am. The problem for the last week is that is interfering with my sleep and I am averaging 5 to 6 hours a night. I will be calling the provider today. I go to this provider for several treatments, and I know they will handle this appropriately. I have done extensive reading on people's results, doctors Q and A etc. I do not believe I am the only one that has experienced something like this but of course it is not something the cool sculpting site directly mentions. They mention the more localized area. However, knowing my body very well, I am sometimes extremely sensitive to things so I can see this lingering but eventually passing. I know results can take 3 to 4 months so we shall see.

According to the indentation/bruising of the area, I'm no professional, but it seems like they placed the device too far down your neck for the treatment other than closer to ur chin (where ur double chin is.)

that could be...i felt like i would not repeat this for any other body part

Actually i think you are right i just noticed that on the picture. Good point
