Losing Volume after Venus Freeze

  Hi and thank you for your question! I am sorry to hear about the experience. Venus Freeze works gradually and the fat reduction following just one treatment is not likely to be significant. For the fat cell to be substantial in just one treatment, the temperature must reach very high levels which will be intolerable by the patient and will certainly result in the treatment being aborted. Based on my experience, patients completing the full 6-session cycle of Venus Freeze will usually see around 1-2 size reductions so I doubt you will have long lasting issues, but if concerned, please do a follow up visit with a qualified physician for an accurate assessment. I hope it helps and good luck!
