Purchase 3 applicators to use at a later date, 2 for my lower abs and one for my right outer thigh lipo bulge. They are on sale for a limited time ($100 off), and I know I won't find it any cheaper on the island so I just went for it. I'm waiting until after my husband comes home from deployment to get them done though so he doesn't return to a bloated, sore wife that can't bare to be touched in my treatment areas ;) Will update once I schedule my sessions!

Changing my mind after researching the risks more thouroughly
piperlee88May 28, 2015
After some thought, I've decided to wait on the abdominal area for now. I heard about Coolsculpting over 3 years ago and at that time, this site had a 79% worth it rating for the procedure and aside from some reviews saying it didn't work, I read nothing bad or dangerous about it... then I sat up most of last night reading the "not worth it" reviews and researching the actual risks (which includes something called hyperplasia that apparently no doctor or facility will admit). I can't bring myself to risk it right now. I've lost almost 15lbs while my husband has been deployed and since he returns soon, I would be devastated if I went through with the procedure and was still swollen/bloated or ended up with hyperplasia and looked *worse* for his return. If it truly was risk free (aside from the possibility of it just not working) and it really had no downtime (not 6-8 weeks of swelling and 2 weeks of intense pain) I'd be going through with it, but I don't have the time to risk it right now.
I may go through with the thigh bulge pad though since it's a no-suction pad. I feel like the swelling might be more manageable with that sort of applicator.
My consultation with doctor #2 isn't until Tuesday which is *after* the sale is over at doctor #1's office... I may have to purchase anyways because the savings is great. Doctor #2's office wouldn't discuss pricing over the phone sooo I am not sure what to do.
