As the technique is recent, long-term safety data are still scarce. Following reports of adverse effects, sometimes serious, the French National Authority for Health (HAS) conducted an initial evaluation of coolsculpting in 2018 to identify the main complications (source 1): complications that appear immediately or in the days following the session: pain, bruising, redness, numbness, tingling. These inconveniences generally disappear in a few days or weeks.

more lasting and potentially more serious side effects: burns, hyperpigmentation, peripheral sensory neuropathy, inguinal hernias, local increase in fatty tissue.
