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.

Just had this procedure done today, and I am...
Just had this procedure done today, and I am paying $4,500 in total for 8 cycles. They were on both sides of my abdomen, and both sides of my midriff. I am doing a deferred monthly plan, where I am paying $188/mo for 2 years, no interest until AFTER the 2 years, but you must pay LATE fees if you don't pay on time! This is manageable, and was a major decision for both my body, and finances. I'm not rich, at all. But, this is something I've always wanted done ever since I heard about it. Watched some YT vids, and they give you information out the ear whenever you visit making sure you understand the procedure, the science behind it, etc.
I was extremely nervous going in today because: Who wouldn't be?
Also, I have very sensitive skin. And I am pretty sensitive to pain, although I know it isn't a painful procedure, I know they emphasize that there is discomfort.
For me, the most uncomfortable part is being sucked in initially. That thing sucks you right up, and squeezes. Imagine the doctor grabbing tightly at your belly, but with about double the strength, and not just squeezing, but pulling away from your body and not letting go. That lasts anywhere between 3-8, maybe 10 minutes depending on where they placed the suction. After that, you start to notice that it's getting cold. Like when you make a snowball with no gloves on. You don't notice how cold it is at first, but the longer you hold, the more you notice, and the more painful the biting cold is. That lasts about the same amount of time. Then, you get "used" to it. Not necessarily numb, close, but not quite, you can still feel the cold, but it just doesn't really hurt anymore. Then you try to sleep cus you're getting a headache or getting a little nauseous after the 2nd or 3rd cycle.
Again, this is all how it felt TO ME. My experience. It's obviously different for everyone, but it's all in the same range. The next most uncomfortable part is the MASSAGE! It feel like they're kneading an iceball into your muscles, it's numb, but it's definitely uncomfortable! It almost makes the nausea worse!
So far, getting sucked into the machine and getting the massage are the worst parts of the actual procedure. I can handle cold slime, and biting cold. Overall pain/discomfort like 6-7/10
After, I felt really nauseous. I'm still nauseous 7 hours later. I've bruised in the outer corners of where the suctions were placed, and their like reddish, rashy hickeys. My belly IS pretty sore, I'm still numb, which I expect all of this to last a couple of days to a couple of weeks, and I am SO excited to see the results and want to know whether i should go back to finish up the rest of what i want done
I WILL post photos tomorrow!

She is nice, quick, professional. Friendly, but it did seemed kind of forced. Whatever, she was polite, that's all that matters!
