CoolSculpting caused paradoxical adipose hyperplasia and ruined my life

My life got turned upside down because of their gross inability to diagnose a basic side effect and other members of the medical community don’t know about it either. They tried to pay out 10k when obviously I needed major reconstructive surgery to correct damage done by their medical device. Is this a way to treat people? Women? Consumers spending big dollars? They say they will pay for your surgery and they fight you left and right treating you awful. I lost everything—kids, job, partner and life—due to the inability of CS minions to meet basic expectations

AVOID

I honestly dont even know where to start because my whole body was completely destroyed from Dr. Hallidays negligence from his old med spa. Lipo spa or skin laze... who knows because this man changed names frequently. I developed Paradoxical Adipose Hyperplasia (PAH), a side effect from the Coolsculpting procedure I had years ago in 2017, just before my life began to change. Coolsculpting is a non-invasive body contouring treatment that most men and women choose because of the astounding final results. Coolsculpting uses cooling to damage and destroy subcutaneous fat cells, without damaging the skin to reduce the amount of fat in the treated area.To destroy fat cells and never worry about eventually being over weight....if in your budget, why wouldn’t you try it? However, non-invasive....[RS bleep]! I was never told about the possible side effects, just a glorious outcome. They advertise the procedure as life changing....I should say so....it will change your life as you know it and not only breakdown fat, but break you down as a person. 
After thousands of people who elected to pay for the coolsculpting procedure suffered from the aftermath of PAH, it is still being advertised as a glamorous option to remain fit. How is such a procedure still FDA cleared? I am disgusted and will forever do whatever I can to let people know about PAH as a result of Coolsculpting. 
So now I figured out what I was suffering from, now it was time to research what can be done about it? How was I going to be able to regain my confidence and get my life back? Was it even possible to get my body back to normal? The answer was yes and no. I would need to have reconstructive surgery to remove the PAH caused by the Coolsculpting. Also, one surgery might not even work and you could possibly need more than 1 surgery or 2 or 3 and so on. 
When i went to my appointment with Halliday he was not empathetic at all! He never even apologized to me for what i lived with for years. I lost my whole life and was living with the unknown due to their negligence and not following protocol that they were supposed to follow from the manufacturer but then again this doesn't surprise me. I was never told about PAH they just simply shoved the papers in my face to sign. If i knew or was warned dont you think i would have known what was really going on with my body? Absolutely! Instead i lived years with a massive stomach looking like I was pregnant with triplets. 
I was begging doctors and various specialists for help and they all dismissed me by saying i was overweight and obese and should consider gastric bypass. I had a colonoscopy at such a young age, i had so many sonograms internal and external and they all showed nothing. To have every doctor look at you like you're crazy and to shove medications down your throat was awful!!! 
When I finally figure out what was wrong with me by super model Linda Evangelista coming forward on the news, I then knew that i had to find Hallidays new office because the old med spa called lipo spa and skinlaze were both closed down. Shocker. I had to find him myself. Since the very first call until my appointment with his office it was horrible!!! He told me I gained weight and was simply dismissing everything that I was saying to him. The funniest part is that his machine ruined my body and did the adverse affect on my body and he had the nerve to offer me a "discount rate" for him to perform liposuction through his practice. A discount?! Not even my money back for Coolscuplting but he felt i needed to pay him to correct my body that his Esthetician destroyed? Absolutely not. That was an insult. Also that man was not touching my body! You need a skillful surgeon who knows how to treat PAH and DrZ Halliday doesn't have a clue. Also, regular lipo does NOT work with getting these hard masses out of your body. You need Vaser lipo but again he is not smart just like the manufacturer is not. 
I did not consent to getting my body sliced up, I did not consent to losing my job since 2018, I did not consent to losing my mental state due to this, I did NOT consent to being deathly sick for years and I didn't consent to this taking my ability to be a mother to my children! The list goes on and on. What that consent form states is completely false to what myself and 100's of others have dealt with, so therefore their consent form is a false consent form. 
Dr. Hallidays office also did not have my whole file on hand. Not one before or after photo. Not the model of the applicators that were used on my stomach not even my name and address or anything else. I was given 6 lonely pieces of paper and was told that this is all they had. I eventually found out an old employee stole their iPad and they never reported it. His whole office is absolutely awful. All they are is money hungry. 
My reconstructive surgery that i needed performed was $42,500. This included an extended tummy tuck, lipo 360 and my muscles needed to be repaired because of how big my body got due to PAH. I did NOT consent to ANY of this. The manufacturer Allergan/ Zelitiq also refused to pay for my surgery and after care expenses and loss of wages and the overall loss of my life. They only offered me $10,000 for my silence. Obviously I refused because that was just another punch in the face. This medical device not only ruined my body, it also ruined my mental state to the point where I couldn't leave my house due to the shame and disfigurements to my body. 
Someone needs to stop these people and I do not recommend this man to touch anyone... I will keep telling my story because this man is walking around living life lavishly as he destroyed mine not only physically but also mentally. Five years of my life ruined and this man thinks its ok? Absolutely not! If this was his daughter or wife or anyone he loved he wouldn't turn his cheek but to me he dismissed everything that happened to me. What an awful person. I will never stop telling my story especially about his office and Zelitiq/ Allergan as well until i get what I deserve!
