Day 13

I am almost back to normal with the exception of some minor numbness (mainly in lower abs, some in thighs). I went to a water park for two days over the weekend with no pain! I see some results (especially with upper abs). Tomorrow will be a full two weeks since the procedure. Hoping to see more results as the weeks go by!

Today is the first two weeks for me. Absolutely no improvement yet. I emailed my doctor's office and they said to be patient; that it's a very slow process. Some see results in as little as three weeks (from what I read). I guess I'm not one of them. :(

Didn't you just get this done 2 weeks ago? I heard 3-4 to notice changes but 8 to 12 to see the full results. I'm day 8 post upper,lowerand flanks. Painful recovery for me but fingers crossed. I hope you get the results you want! I have 3 children and after three csections, I'm hoping for results.

I definitely see some improvement in the upper abs. Really nothing in the thighs. When I say improvement, it is slight, but definite.

That's true. I guess I'm being impatient. Thanks for the reminder.

Wow! Already? I don't see ANY signs of improvement. In fact, it seems worse. I don't know if that's swelling. I doubt it. I just don't think it worked for me. Keep in mind that I'm like you, as well. I weigh less than 100 lbs. I just developed a little pooch over the years. Just part of the aging process. The pooch is not only still there, it's worsened. I have an appointment in about three weeks for follow-up photos. If nothing changes, they will see that CoolSculpting just didn't work for me. I'm happy you see results, though. My thinking is that it's just going to get better for you. :)

I'm on day 7:) I did upper and lower on the same day. Any discomfort is 90%+ gone. I'm starting to see a little difference. I'm really counting on some positive results. I've been training really hard the last couple months and still have a Lil pooch, it's the dippling that bothers me most. Thank u for post..if I'm able to post pics I'll do so...good luck

Good to know, I'm on day 4, bruised a bit not as uncomfortable, just wondering if im going to have the stabbing pokes that many have spoke of on day 5 or 6? Swelling may have gone down a little. Ill have to have my daughter help post before and after pics because Im not that up on technology. Im 55 with stubborn lower pooch about 15 pounds over weight and just decided its time to look better lol I cant wait to see results! I get on a stairstepper 5 days a week for 30 min. Dont train hard so thought i would get a quick fix.

Thank you for the updates I just did my lower and upper stomach on June 12 and it's nice to know what to expect.

I've seen no difference whatsoever. Feel and look exactly the same as I did before I had it done on June 2. It hasn't even been two weeks yet, so I have to be patient. From what I read, a few see changes in as little as three weeks.

Days 7-8

tbrook1June 11, 2015
Yesterday was pretty much the same, but the swelling is going down and the couple small bruises I had are disappearing. Today is day 8 and I feel pretty good. The pains are very little. My lower abdomen is still pretty numb. I am actually starting to see some improvement with the upper abs which is exciting!
