Hives after CoolSculpting: Is it safe to get another cycle of treatment? (Photos)

August 20, 2017
Asked By:Westbrook34 in Dallas, TX

I had the CoolSculpting done 2 and a 1/2 months ago one cycle. I was supposed to go for my second and I did not want to return because I got hives afterwards all over my body but it started in the area treated. After the procedure I called my doctor and they said it takes a day or two for the treatment to go in through out the body. And that it could possibly cause an allergic reaction. , Is it safe to go back and get laser hair removal?
