WORTH IT$1,200
It has been 7 weeks since my procedure and I couldn't be more pleased! I have seen a big difference and am hoping it only continues to get better during the next 7-8 weeks! I didn't go into this expecting a completely flat belly...I had a big pooch to begin with that would never respond to diet/exercise (I work out 4-6 times a week)! I am very, very happy with the results and now I just need somebody to give me some $$ so I can get my love handles/sides of hips done!! :) I had a fantastic experience and would recommend this procedure to anyone!

Thank you so much for updating your photos! I see some super amazing results! Congratulations! You have inspired me tremendously! I had coolsculpting on my love handles but I was so scared after reading all the reviews on here that I cancelled my May 3 appt to have upper and lower abs done :(. I did fine through the love handles procedure but like you said when they took the device off the massage was horrible, I broke out into a sweat and felt like I was gonna be sick, that scared me for some reason...then my side just felt like it was on fire bc it was so cold..all of that resolved in no more than 10 min but anyways i was just wondering when they removed the device from your abdomen did you feel nauseaus at all?? What exactly did you feel?? Thanks!

From everything I have read the abs are much more sensitive. I did not feel nauseated at all. The massage was uncomfortable and painful but it didn't last long. I went straight from the procedure to the grocery store and did my shopping. My stomach area was really numb. I felt numb for a really long time...weeks! Gradually the numbness wore off and then I was numb just around my belly button area...now nothing..completely back to normal! I too was so scared I ALMOST cancelled my appointment after reading the reviews here! I had times of discomfort and a little soreness and pain but nothing that would stop me from doing it again in a heartbeat!

Just had a consult today. Looks like its going to run me $1450 for my "flanks" which are love handles. Not too bad if you ask me. I am glad I looked at comments. I'm going to do it. I'm getting married in 6 months and my love handles have always been a problem.

It has been over a week since my procedure and I am feeling a lot better. I am still a tiny bit numb (more on one side than the other). I think I am still a bit swollen too. The only thing that really bothers me is my belly button area. It is still very tender and I have some "stinging" feelings there. The stinging feeling happens most often in the late evening/night. I wonder if it just hurts more then because it is the end of the day?

I never thought the pain was unbearable. The pain never stopped me from going about my normal activities. It was more annoying than anything else. I have slept fine and pain never woke me up.

Now, I am just anxiously awaiting seeing some results. I think that is what most worries me. I hope I haven't paid all this money for nothing!! I am not looking for a completely flat stomach I am looking for a reduction of fat that will be noticeable and will help my clothes fit better and me to feel more self-confident. Here's to hoping and waiting!!!

I've read of people having a stinging feeling or zaps of pain a week or two into recovery. Hopefully you'll be seeing some results soon! Thanks for the updates.

I had the procedure done Tuesday and it is now Friday evening. I am still sore and numb (weird combination but that is the way it is). I was able to wear jeans today but am still slightly swollen. I am experiencing some deep itching and by that I mean you can't scratch the skin and relieve the itching. I have had to rub/massage my belly roughly and it really doesn't help. It is an itch you can't scratch...kind of irritating but what can you do? I also have had a few little "zingers" or twinges here and there. Nothing too bad though. The itching sensation is by far the most annoying thing going on.
