What happens after the treatment?

After 60 minutes of cooling in any given area, the cup applicator is removed. You will probably experience a slight burning sensation to the region as the temperature in that area returns to normal. Once the applicator is removed you will notice that the area is somewhat deformed and possibly bruised, which of course is the expected consequence of just having your treated area of fat squeezed and stuck in a vacuumed cup for an hour! Your practitioner will then massage this back flat and into a more normal appearance. Any redness will settle in the ensuing few minutes to hours afterwards. Any localized bruising, if it occurs, usually clears within a few weeks. Many patients usually experience a temporary dulling of sensation or numbness in the treated area lasting one to eight weeks.
