I had the Cool Sculpting procedure done one week ago. Finally all the feeling has come back in my tummy. Procedure wasn't painful (uncomfortable yes) but afterwards the area felt like I had novacaine for days then started itching. I'm hopeful now that the results will be worth the money!

After 2 weeks all of the feeling is back in my tummy but the itching persists - lotion does help. Area no longer feels like a rock but is becoming more normal. All of the bruising is gone.

Have you been able to see any results yet?

March 12, 2012
No nothing yet. I guess it takes 6-8 weeks to start really seeing results.

Just a few more weeks then! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

It has been 6 weeks for me with no results so far.

Beautydebbie, do you have any follow-up with your provider booked? I know it can take a while for results to show but maybe you could find out what their expectations of your results at this stage are.

My procedure was 4 weeks ago and FINALLY I'm seeing results! First week was swollen, very little feeling and stomach was rock hard. Second week skin was tender, still swollen. Third week I thought the itching would drive me mad. What seemed like overnight this week all the itching is gone and a pair of pants that were snug before the procedure fit perfectly. I feel the little stomach pouch I had is quickly going down now. My doctor will check results at 8 weeks but warned that it can take 16 weeks to see full results. I'm pumped now and would do it all over again. Procedure was uncomfortable as was a couple of weeks there but nothing that kept me from going on with normal daily routine. I'm hopeful for even more results in the next few weeks!

I'm getting this done with Dr. Jimenez next month... I'm really really scared it's going to hurt afterwards the way everyone is talking like it will. It doesn't seem that you experienced the excrutiating pain that some have faced... I hope this is true for me as well! I'M REALLY SCARED. :P

Good Luck redneony!!! On a scale of 1 - 10 I would say my discomfort the first two weeks was 4-5 but not really pain. I hope you have good results! If you have not been there before - they are a great group of people!!

Got it done -- I really didn't have too many problems. I'd gladly do it again.

Hope you have great results redneony! I am on week 7 and seeing slight results. My pants feel looser in the waistline. I go back next week for the ultrasound to see how much of the fat layer has reduced. Dr J told me most results are not seen for about 3-4 months. Still hopeful for more!

Good news it is week beginning of week 8 and I finally noticed some results. I did not see any at week six, but week 7 - 8 I see a little difference. Nothing dramatic, but at least some results:) About an inch off my waist overall!
