March 13, 2017. Getting my love handles and the sides of my waist done! This one was a breeze. Not much pain or anything afterwards, of course there's the numbness, but it's nothing compared to the abdomen. I have my final ab session scheduled in a month after this, just doing the small ones in a diamond shape to contour. After that, we'll see I guess. I still want to do another session on my bra roll area, and maybe arms?
Oh and I forgot to post measurements for my last update, I've stayed mostly the same, but I weigh 135 lbs and my waist is 26 inches (when I'm not bloated DX)

Do you think the laser actually helped or was it partial diet and exercise as well? (did you kick it up after the laser?)

I definitely did not exercise. At all. I really wanted to, but I'm in the middle of doing my practicum for school right now..... And my diet has not been the best either. Results were partially due to diet at the beginning, but after that it was all coolsculpting.

Results from second session!

I went to get pictures taken on February 23, 2017. These are the results from 3 months after my second abdomen session, and roughly 4 months after my bra roll area. The difference is definitely more noticeable now when I put them side by side! I still don't think the change is as drastic from the first session though.

I tried to wear the same pants that I had on last time ;D

Thank you so much for your feedback & posting pics. You look amazing, I recently had coolsculpting done (1 week post) and was wondering if you noticed the change in your abdomen because of weight loss or the actual coolsculpting? I have always worked out & watch my diet (5'5" 133lbs) I am working out harder & becoming more strict with my diet but hoping this works, any thoughts/advice would be much appreciated!

Thank you! I think the weight loss definitely did help - I saw the greatest change after my 1st round, when I was inspired to eat healthier and lost 10 lbs. Even after my second round, I only lost 5lbs, but I definitely wasn't eating the healthiest, and still had really good results! The most noticeable area for me has been my back fat. I've always had fat there. The fact that it's gone now is due entirely to coolsculpting, you can even see where the applicator was placed! (Not in a bad way, it's covered by my bra). I think the best advice I could offer would be to use this as a motivator to exercise and eat healthy! I hope you get really great results as well :)

Wow - you've had amazing results! I hope I get a similar outcome!

Is this a permanent fix? Do you mind my asking how much you paid for all your sessions all total? I'm almost 68, 5'7" and 128 lbs. even though I'm not overweight, I have a poochy tummy from my babies and it seems to be larger as I aged. I just want to be able to easily button my size 6 jeans without a muffin too! The rest of my body is a size 6. My tummy is a size 8. At my age, should I even be worrying about this??

Hi, I think the total I paid was around $10,000 for 13 applicators, and I still don't have my final results yet. I had my abdomen done 3 times, upper and lower back, flanks, and the sides of my waist. This permanently removes 25% of the fat cells in the treatment area - they say it is permanent, but of course the remaining fat cells in the area can still get larger if you are t eating right! I looked at this as an alternative to liposuction as I don't have that close by. And I didn't want an invasive procedure that would potentially ruin my skin elasticity. But I think that it's never too late to want to improve your appearance! I hope I answered your questions

It's been one month since my second abdomen session. I'm not really seeing a significant change, so I don't think I will post pictures today. I'm also feeling quite bloated! I was hoping I would be able to see more of a difference, but so far I only see more areas that I want to treat.

My belly is still a bit numb. It also feels kind of liquidy, and I'm hoping that's the dead fat cells in there that have yet to be flushed out! ;p I'll try to update with some pictures next week.

I live in Grande Prairie, so I just went to the place in my city, Cool Aesthetics. There's some good places in Edmonton that have discounts on multiple areas, but I wasn't willing to travel that far
