2 weeks ago I had a treatment with the large hand piece on my lower abdomen. The suction was quite shocking. I guess my skin is loose from having a baby because my fat stretched all the way to the back of the hand piece. Stabbing pains were the worst between days 5-10 but has turned into itching sensation. I have purchased 2 more large treatments, and 4 smalls. SO much more info to come!

I am currently 3 weeks post procedure. Not sure if I see any results yet. I also had my love handles done a few days ago hence the bruising.

Hi Sharon, welcome and thanks for sharing your journey with us!
How has your recovery been? Did you have much pain or downtime?
Hopefully your resuts will start coming through more in the next few weeks. Please do keep us updated with your progress!

Just curious where you are going to have the additional treatments on your body? Do you plan to overlap areas that you have already had treated?

So far I've had 1 large on my lower abdomen, 2 smaller on the love handles and 2 smalls on the upper abdomen. I plan on doing at least one more large on the lower abdomen, 2 more smalls on the love handles, and possibly the inner thighs. I currently have crazy bruising from the upper abdomen. I'll post a pic.

Just saw the bruise pic. How was the treatment on the upper abs? Was the technician able to grab that area well enough for it to be effective? I might try other areas but I started with my flanks and will probably do two treatments in that area.

Yeah the tech turned the suction up to 80. That's why I have the bruising. She got a ton of fat in there tho....all the way to the back of the device. It was more difficult to do my flanks because the fat is harder and not as easily sucked in the vacuum. I go back on Thursday for another lower abdomen treatment. I'm not looking forward to the nerve pain after :(

I just had my first lower ab treatment today. The technician was able to get really good suction in this area and during the treatment I felt more pressure than I had with my hip area. It also felt like it froze more on my abs than it did on my hips. I think I may end up with a bruise in this area. Why are you having a second treatment now, rather than waiting the three months? Is there a benefit to overlapping treatments sooner?

I've been hearing the recent news from Zeltic saying that you should get your second treatment at the 30 day mark because your body is already having an inflammatory response from the 1st treatment which could help your results. If you wait 4 months your body will have to start the inflammatory response all over again. I'm already noticing huge results!!!
