After getting a CoolSculpting procedure, do you still wear a compression garment while you exercise?

Question

R. Brannon Claytor, MD, FACS · Answer

Hello,
You will not have to wear any sort of compression garment after having a CoolSculpting procedure. CoolSculpting is a non-invasive, fat freezing procedure that requires little to no downtime.  Most patients find themselves resuming regular daily activity that same day.

Hi, thanks for your question. Compression garments are not necessary following your CoolSculpting procedure. They will not work to improve your CoolSculpting results, and because CoolSculpting is non-surgical and non-invasive there is no recovery with which compression garments might be useful. Be sure to consult with a CoolSculpting provider at a certified CoolSculpting practice in order to ensure that this is the correct procedure for you and to be sure that the most experienced provider is performing the treatment.

I do not require a compression garment after CoolSculpting treatments. However, if wearing one makes you comfortable during exercise, there is no reason not to do so. Make sure your CoolSculpting treatment is performed by a board-certified dermatologist who has had extensive training in this treatment. Proper placement of the applicators makes all the difference in the quality of your results. Good luck!

We don't actually advise patients that they have to wear one after treatment but if it feels good it can not hurt to do so!

Hi there, thank you for your question and congratulations on completing your first Coolsculpting session! While it is not mandatory to wear a compression garment, patients say it makes exercise more comfortable. It is only a personal preference for comfort, and has no impact on the treatment results.
