Coolsculpting for Upper Arms

Plucky5267
WORTH IT$1,250
I went to have my coolsculpting treatment on upper arms. The first 5 minutes it burns kinda like when you play with snow for too long. Then it gets numb for the rest of the treatment and it comes the 2 min massage and it burns like hell. Then the burning sensation subsides as the part gets warmer and warmer. I've been swollen, the skin is numb and it hurts when i touch it. Will be updating.

I just bought 2 cycles today for my flanks and I'm regretting it. $3350. And they said it was a deal. Keep us posted on your recovery? I didn't realize you would swell.

Yes! I think they used the small one on my arms they charged 1250 approx. So maybe for flanks would be the bigger cycle? Today I'm still swollen, and sore. They told me nothing Id do would change the results but Im doing a 2 min massage everyday at night.

The swelling and soreness is subsiding

It's been a week+ and everything is getting slowly back to normal. My arms are still a little bit swollen and sore, but not that much. Sometimes they get itchy , it's uncomfortable because the skin is numb but you can feel the itchiness coming from inside. I sometimes get sharp pains but they're not that bad, and they don't last long. Im a little bit worried because one arm got more swollen and hurt more than the other, and I hope it doesn't mean it wont work on that arm as well. I will be updating weekly ,im excited to see some results

Seeing results

Alright so I'm one month and a half post op and I was feeling kind of sad because I wasn't seeing much results and I was still very swollen. When I went to my follow up ,in the pictures they take my right arm showed some loss of volume in the treatment area and the left not so much, it was a bigger actually so i dont know if it's not working or it's swollen. I've been taking front pictures for before and afters and you can't see any difference but I took a picture from behind and the difference is there! So this is totally working. I'm not very sure about my left arm, the swelling is still there, but I've noticed an indentation in the treatment area but it is not thst noticeable as my right arm.Will be updating in a month :)! This really works! But takes patience

It's looking good. Thanks for the update. You'll probably have more results these next couple weeks.
