I just went in for coolsculpting of the lower abs two weeks ago and was very disappointed in the lack of information I was given prior to the day of my procedure. No one told me I'd have piercing needle pains in my abs for over a week. No one told me my tummy would swell so much I'd look 5-6 months pregnant. No one told me I would have severe sensitivity in my ab area so that I would not be able to sleep for several nights. I was told a few minutes just prior to my procedure that I might have swelling, bruising and needle-like symptoms 3-4 days after the procedure. What I got was all of the above and worse starting from day one. I would have been better prepared if I knew more about the side effects and post procedure effects if someone gave me time to mentally prepare for all the discomfort well before, not on the day of. Not happy at all about this and I doubt I will do much else at this office. My trust is shattered.
