Unexpected and Disappointing Side Effects

I had several sessions of coolsculpting on my neck. While I did lose fat it was replaced by these hideous lines. I was told I had been informed there might be some chance of a little sagging and this was really caused by combining this with my slow and steady loss of 60 pounds over 8 months. I have found nothing when researching that this would be a normal occurrence. While everyone there is extremely kind and seem to be caring, at the end of the day I spent thousands of dollars to end up with these lines that are hideous and make me look older. They told me they felt bad but there wasn't anything they could do to fix it. Surgery is an option if I want to pour even more money into this. The worst part is they knew i was very self conscious about my neck. When I first brought this to their attention they suggested one more session, which I completed and paid for. It just got worse. I am so disillusioned.

Ask your doctor about injecting botox into those lines to relax them. The procedure is called a Botox neck lift (at the place I go anyways).

I have similar lines and I have not had anything done to my neck. Stretching exercises help smooth it out.

Botox works for this problem.

I just heard from a doctor on this site that said it's possible this was the result of over treatment. I probably should not have agreed to that last session. Just make sure you don't get more than you need.

Needs people trained to know. Over treatment then!

Don’t get more than you need! It’s a costly mistake
