WORTH IT$2,250
Just left my consultation at Ideal Image and I feel excited. I'm about 6 weeks away from my procedure. In the consultation, Emily went over everything in full detail and explained how things work. She suggested that I get upper and lower abs along with flanks (bra line fat). I want to break up the procedures die to finances which is perfectly fine with CoolSculpting. I'll add my BEFORE photos from this morning. Can't wait to show my results

Hi Elizabeth. I hope it works for you. Unfortunately, it didn't work for me. read about my experience. I had mine done at dr.Yee clinic. It's been two years and my skin is stretched, it only made room for more fat. Their machine kept shutting off during the procedure, the assistants didn't seem to be trained to-do this. I didn't get any positive results and no refund. I pray yours is a success!

Thank you. I've heard great reviews about the people and procedure at Ideal Image so hopefully it'll be a success

My newsfeed here is set to CoolSculpting reviews and all I see today is "Not Worth It". It's making me a little nervous, but all of the reviews I see are from 2-3 years ago so I'm optimistic that the procedure has been upgraded by now.
Here are the Before pics I promised.

I have an appointment for Saturday - same procedure as you. I got nervous looking at all the "Not Worth It" reviews too but it seems sometimes unsatisfied people post than satisfied people! So good luck to you!! Will post before photos soon.

Thank you! I think you're right that unsatisfied people speak the loudest

Day of treatment
Sculpting Day!

Today was the big day! I had 2 cycles done (1 on each side) on my lower abdomen. They used the CoolMax application. It felt weird, like I was getting sucked into a tube. It even felt like my uterus was being sucked in...or maybe I was tensing up. It didn't hurt but it did feel a little uncomfortable at first. About maybe 10 minutes I was able to take a nap. I turned on some Spa Music on my phone and went right to sleep.
I will say the massage part was the worse. It's like leaving an ice pack on too long then trying to wake up your bruised skin. Not the best description but hopefully you get the idea. It was pretty painful. It did look like a frozen piece of butter. It felt like a partly froze piece of chicken lol.
Check up booked for May 24th which is about 56 days from today. Will post an update again in 30 days!
Oh! I forgot to take my BEFORE photos but Ideal Image took some so I will have to wait until I can get them. The posted pics are right after the treatment when I was getting dressed.

I'm feeling the nerve pain now. I could feel it right after the numbness wore off. This is NOT a pleasant feeling at all. Heat seems to help a bit and I was able to sleep easily...up until I change position and my fat shifted. That hurt like hell!

Ice literally is going to be your only comfort. Trust me, i tried EVERYTHING! Dont go spend $$ on any freeze creams or nerve soreness meds. Ice is your only friend. They could irritate your skin also. Also compression garments.

About 10 days after my lower abdomen - the nerve pain started and the only thing that helped was compression garments and ice. Hope this is all worth it. I'm 6 weeks out and I have seen no difference. I go in tomorrow for my second procedure on the same area. :(
