I had my appointment 5 days ago. I had my abdomen done and my inner thighs. All in one appointment. I had one thigh done at the same time as 1 lower ab side done. I wouldn't say the treatment is painful but you do feel the suction when it starts. I was there for 4 hours which can get pretty boring. It is an hour per treatment but they did get the thighs done during an ab treatment.
I was told I would have "no downtime" and "could go on and do whatever I had planned the next day" That is not true, at least for me. I was in a lot of pain, and covered in bruises. I do bruise easy so others may not but I had deep, dark bruises and was swollen. Needless to say, tennis was out the next morning! I would have still done the rteatment, so I wish I had been told a more accurate expectation when I went for my consult.
Now at 5 days, I still have slight bruising and a little pain. A lot of itching and aches. This is all my abs, my thighs never hurt, and never bruised. The swelling has started to go down , but this is day 5 so I was hoping it would be gone completely by now.
I should also say, I am 47, 5'6" and weigh 174. My stomach has always been an issue for me. I would have gotten my upper arms too, but it not available in my area.

The swelling is almost all the way down. Still some fading bruising but most of that is gone. It is still very sensitive to touch. There is itching and pain, especially after sitting or laying down. Exercise helps the pain a lot. Hopeful in a month or so I will see actual results.

I am not sore, or swollen but can still feel some tingles and sensitivity. I don't see any real changes. I was so swollen that now I am just back to where I was prior to CS. I went away for a few and was hoping my clothes would fit a little differently, but still the exact same. I know it takes weeks and months but I was hoping.... SO I am at week 2.5 weeks and patiently waiting for a sign that it worked!

Same here, I got it done Oct 31st I'd say I'm wjere I started. I just hope to see results. Did your inner thighs hurt? Was thinking if getting mine done when I go back for my check up Dec 5th.

No, my inner thighs never hurt at all. I can't really see a change there either but no pain or bruising.

I'll check back before my apt Dec 5th to see if you've had any change in haven't seen much on inner thighs. Hopefully you see some changes I'm really wanting mine done, but don't want to go thru with it if people aren't getting results

Had mine done in April and I felt like my situation worsened. Where they did my lower abdomen, it feels like a ball of fat and the only other option to fix it, is to have lipo.:(. What a waste of money.

I go Dec 13th now school was delayed the 5rh so I had to reschedule I don't see a difference yet eathier. I called and talked she said we would see at my apt but suggested doing a second treatment and I'd really notice.. debating, feels like I'm waiting my money I just want to see some result

had a second round done too and it seems like every time I go in, I get a different answer. Like, maybe if we changed the pads long ways, it will get the bulge out. I feel like I wasted money. well good luck with yours.

I had my CS done exactly 1 month ago. I do not see any change but my measurement says 1/2 is off my waist. I recently started using the Fascia Blaster, which I think is helping to get rid of some more fat around my stomach. I try to stay patient but really want to see some results! I am adding new updated pictures, I see no change at all. Please do not be alarmed by the bruising, it from the Fascia Blaster and is totally normal and actually a good thing. I will check back in a couple of weeks.
