Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Super painful, long recovery, maybe worth it?
As they say, no pain, no gain? I still maintain that this was far more painful than giving birth, but the results are real. I wish I knew if this was more or less painful than actually going under the knife and doing liposuction, but I can't advise. I can, however, say that cool sculpting does produce real results. I would love to have posted my 12week photos but I ended up pregnant 7 weeks post procedure, so I didn't want to skew my results photos. I will say that I've looked fabulous this pregnancy and am looking forward to seeing how well I bounce back.
Maria at foreverslender was extremely apologetic to the situation I was in. If you are in pain, call the practice you went to, not your GP like I did. I just assumed there wasn't anything they could do for me and that was a bad assumption. I'd absolutely use their practice for other procedures in the future...though I'm not certain I would try coolsculpt again, haha.
I wasn't able to wear jeans for roughly 5 weeks and lost all sensation in my stomach for about 10weeks. This isn't the norm from what I can tell, but if it happens to you, know that you're not alone and the feeling does come back.

This is a Major, Painful Procedure and I Will NEVER Do It Again
I would have given these folks 5 stars but I feel a little lied to by the technicians. They should have stuck around with you through the first 10mins of treatment so you're not alone during the 3rd most painful part of the procedure. They also did a bad job of explaining the entire process and what to expect. Literally I thought this would be a pain scale level 2...I was in labor for 40 hours so there's no way this was going to hurt. Boy was I WRONG. I asked them about bruising after treatment and the technician said it almost never happens...and they say you'll be numb and swollen but that goes away. I'm on day 7 and still can't wear my pants. I'm stuck in yoga wear for the foreseeable future. I was so severely bruised that it looks like I was in a major car accident. Finally the pain is so bad that I haven't slept more than a total of 20 hours in the last 7 days. I had two lower and two upper abdominal applications on the same day.
