Thinking about CoolSculpting but feeling a little hesitant? Let me take you through my first-hand experience with a CoolSculpting treatment on my abdomen. If you’re curious about the process and what it feels like, this detailed account will give you all the insights you need!
Before the Treatment
I’ll admit, I felt a bit nervous walking into the treatment room, but my provider immediately put me at ease. She thoroughly explained each step of the process, which helped me feel more confident.
To prepare for the treatment, She marked and outlined the targeted area on my abdomen and applied a gel liner to protect my skin. After ensuring the applicator placement was perfect, I was repositioned in the chair for optimal comfort.
During the CoolSculpting Treatment
Now for the exciting part—the actual CoolSculpting!
When She applied the applicator and pressed "start," I felt a cooling sensation almost immediately. At first, it was refreshingly cool, but within a few minutes, it transitioned to an intensely cold sensation. Around the 3-minute mark, I noticed a slight ache in the treated area. However, just as it started to feel a bit uncomfortable, the sensations began to subside. By the 5-minute mark, the area was completely numb.
For the remainder of the session, I felt only the weight of the applicator and a distant coldness. It was surprisingly easy to relax, so I scrolled through my phone and even caught up on some emails.
Once the treatment was complete, Sharla performed a 2-minute manual massage on the treated area to enhance the results. I didn’t feel much during the massage since the area was still numb. All in all, it was a very straightforward and easy experience!
After the Treatment
Day of Treatment:Right after my session, I ran errands and went about my evening as usual. My abdomen felt slightly sore, similar to the feeling after an intense workout, but it wasn’t bothersome at all.
Day 1 Post-Treatment:By the next day, I noticed a dulled sensation in the treated area, but it didn’t interfere with my routine. I went to work, hit the gym, and even tackled crunches, jogging, and squats without any issues.
Day 3 Post-Treatment:I’m feeling great and back to normal! There’s still a faint numbness in the treated area, but it’s nothing noticeable.
