IMMEDIATELY AFTER TREATMENT
- Most patients resume daily activities immediately.
- You may experience brief tingling or stinging sensations.
- The treated area may feel stiff or appear temporarily pale (blanching).
- Mild nausea or dizziness may occur briefly as your body readjusts.
- Redness may persist for a few hours after treatment.
- Any bruising, swelling, numbness, or tenderness should be resolved within two weeks. Bruising on the legs may take longer to heal.
IN THE WEEKS FOLLOWING TREATMENT
- The treated area may feel bloated or swollen for the first few weeks.
- Temporary numbness or dullness in sensation may last for several weeks.
- Common side effects in the first two weeks include:
- Itching, tingling, numbness, tenderness, cramping, diarrhea, muscle spasms, aching, or soreness.
- If any of these persist or worsen after two weeks, contact our office.
- Treated fat cells will gradually break down and be flushed from your body.
- Each treatment results in an average 25% fat reduction in the treatment area.
COOLSCULPTING POST-CARE & LONG-TERM MAINTENANCE
- Follow-up appointments are recommended three months after each session to assess the results and determine if additional treatments are needed.
- Once satisfied with your results, maintain a healthy diet and exercise routine to prevent remaining fat cells from expanding.
