How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Seven week update
I wasn't sure what improvement there was until I took some photos.
Flanks not peaking as much as before.
Seems abdomen is less bulky. It's still mostly fat but I think it looks better.
I've gained about 5 lbs due to trying to eat more for metabolism reasons, but so far only weight gain.
First photo is from the spring (before)
Second photo is same angle in Oct (after)
Note: I had coolsculpting around my waist all the way around plus upper abdomen. I think you can see a band going around where I had the procedure. Also, my waist measurement is the same as the day before the procedure, but my weight is more as of today.

Photos from earlier
Pale photos are before, then drawings of where they applied coolsculpting over two separate days. Abdomen had 4 coolmax size.
By the way, the red area was not as painful as it looks. The marker drawing stayed longer than the redness.
Today, September 9th I'm feeling fine. No improvement but it's way too early to see. Numb areas fairly reasonable, especially considering it's only temporary.

Sept 5th - Day 8 Post 1st procedure, Day 5 Post 2nd procedure
So, I am SO happy to say no nerve pain. Yet. I'm still waiting for the "other shoe to drop". However, so far, so good comfort-wise.
I found that wearing the compression shirt only caused general pain, so I decided not to wear it after a couple of days, and that felt best to me.
LOWER AB:
Fairly numb. You'd have to squeeze them more than a little, and then they might ache. But it would take effort.
UPPER AB:
Barely more sensitive than lower, but it's a few days newer in treatment. Basically the same
FRONT FLANKS:
Basically numb and no sensations unless squeezed
SIDE FLANKS:
My side flanks, at my current weight, are pretty sizable. Having said that, pretty numb and only ache when squeezed.
BACK FLANKS:
No numbness. As if untreated, but maybe I'm not feeling the right spot.
All-in-all, since there's no pain to speak of, I'm very happy being a week-out. My measurements are about 1.5" wider around but close enough to my most recent size. I've been wearing comfortable standard jeans, and mostly rest them below my belly. When I rest them on my belly, I just have to be a little careful since I'm numb and I can make it ache if its too tight. When resting below, I completely forget I've had anything done. I have a small dog, and when he occasionally jumps on me to lay down with me, he's not hurting me like it was aching last week. So... so far, no regrets.
BTW - Jogging, which I don't jog, but I was running after my dog for about 20 feet. You'll notice the strange sensation of your fat bouncing, and tugging against your torso but you don't feel the fat itself. Same with jumping in place.
Still hoping no pain tomorrow. But none to speak of so far!

Provider Review
Excellent bedside manner. Very accommodating. Also, very comfortable and intimate office. I like their coolsculpting room because it's like being in a relaxed bedroom (but in proper coolsculpting chair with the machines) and had Netflix option on a huge tv. Rates very reasonable. I'm glad I found them. Professional yet comfortable is a nice mix.
