What compression garment is best for CoolSculpting of the tummy area?

Ok. So the Coolsculpting process works by inducing apoptosis of your fat cells which means that the cold temperature of -10'C tells these cells that it is time to cycle out.

While this can cause some swelling during the process it has largely been a involuting process and not an inflammatory process. This means that the cells are dying and being reabsorbed. While I am sure that it feels good to have compression it is not necessarily one of the more important aspects of post procedure care.

It is far more important to massage and eat well. I share with my patients that the fat cells involute more efficiently if there is the right nutrient millieu surrounding the cells.

No need for compression garment post coolsculpting -- spanx is fine.  I suggest seeing an expert.  Best, Dr. Emer.

A compression garment is not needed after a CoolSculpting treatment to the tummy (abdomen) or any other treated area.
