Its jan 17th, two months after my second set of treatments on nov 18th. There hasnt been as much improvement as i had hoped. My waist measurement is now at 34 1/4. Visually, it does look like there is an improvement.

3 months review and 2nd round of treatments.

I went back nov. 18th for follow up and my second set of 6 area treatments.

Final result of the first set was going from 37.5 inches around my waist to 35.25. The 2nd set of treatment actually caused more numbness and discomfort for about a week more than the first set. It also seems like results are faster the 2nd time around. Its now dec. 11th and my waist is now 34.75 inches.

40 day update

The changes have been very slow. It's almost like 1 mm a day. On the first set of pic, the circumference of my waist area was 37 1/4 inch. Right now, it's about 36-36 1/4". I am hoping for at least a 3" inch total before I go for the second rounds on Nov. I have looked at pics of people that did lipo and the results are more dramatic and quicker for about the same price of my 12 treatments. At this point, I would not recommend cool sculpting unless you have health issues that would prevent lipo surgery as the cost and total time to see real results would be about the same.

Michelle was great to work with. In my initial research, i e-mailed 3 places on a Friday night. To my surprise, the office e-mailed me back right away and was able to schedule a consultation with me for the following Tuesday all via e-mail. After the consultation, I had a lot a couple more questions that I e-mailed her and she promptly replied right away. On the day of the procedure, she drew out the area to be treated and massaged the area after each treatment. She periodically checked back in with me during the treatment to see how it was going or if I needed anything. They provided snacks, beverages, magazines, and a TV.
