Surprised It Worked So Well

I always had insecurity issues with my lower abdomen area. In general, I do have a small, petite frame; however, my stomach area has always been bloated and I always had a lower gut that protruded out no matter if I worked out or tried to change my diet. My lower abdomen was stubborn and I realized it would not go away with regular exercise and diet. I started to look for different options out there and after doing some research, it came down to either cool sculpting or sculpsure. I eliminated liposuction because I did not want to go under the knife just yet and liposuction does not give you the results you want permanently. After reading the different reviews between cool sculpting and sculpsure, I opted for sculpsure because sculpsure supposedly gave patients a more “even and smooth” look over their new skin whereas cool sculpting sometimes left patients with a “shelf of uneven fat”.

After my consultation, I decided to settle for the 2 sessions of sculpsure for a price of $2000 total. To me, the price seemed worth it since I was desperate to remove the fat and I wanted to see if the procedure lived up to the actual expectations.

For the experience itself, the nurse will most likely tell you that it feels like heavy period cramps but in reality it hurt SO bad. At times, I couldn’t even talk and in the moments that I almost gave up, the cooling period would start and I would finally catch a breath. After the session was over, your treated area would feel sore but it was definitely tolerable. I would continue my day like nothing had happened and nobody close to me had noticed anything. I followed their directions to drink a ton of water and massage my area when I can (waiting at red lights, in the shower, watching Netflix, anything lol).

For the first couple of weeks, I wouldn’t notice much..I don’t think I began to see any changes until week 4 or 5. My next session was scheduled at week 6 and I had to endure the pain all over again but to me it was well worth it if I could start seeing results at the end. After my second and final session ended, I repeated the after-procedure steps all over again; however, I have to admit I was slacking off towards the end. I continued to go to the gym however I wasn’t doing anything too different or rigorous. My gym routine usually consisted of either doing cardio for 30 minutes and another area or signing up for those hour long classes like yoga, Pilates, cycling, zumba, etc.

Fast forward to week 10-12, I definitely started noticing major results. My stomach seemed a lot flatter from the profile view and clothes that seemed tight on me before now fit perfectly. Other people even commented to me that I looked slimmer asking if I had changed my diet or workout routine but in actuality I hadn’t.

In all, I think sculpsure is well worth it but it definitely 50% the procedure and 50% your own effort and diligence! If you think you can follow the post procedures directions well, then I think you can have a good chance of seeing the results you want.

I came in to do my after photo shots and I’m very satisfied with my results. I notice a very big difference in the lower part of my midsection. The middle part is also finally flat from the top. My first session was in February and I came in to take these photos in August.

I took pictures weekly to document the progress personally but here is a photo of my midsection before the procedure and after. Normally, people will begin to see results on the 4th or 5th week with the most optimal results seen at the 12th week however I think the results keep on getting better and better since these photos are taken 7 months apart.
