Can I get heat wraps after CoolSculpting?

Question

11 May 2018 I had CoolSculpting done on abdomen, my sides of abdomen and my chin. And I love my results! But now like to get those Heat wraps after the Cool Sculpting? Someone told me they usually don’t do the heat wraps yet unable to give me a reason as to why? Is it ok? I lost a lot of weight and now need some skin tightening. Not a lot but some.

Hi.  This far out, there is unlikely to be a negative impact between heat wraps and your coolsculpting results.  The warmth will promote circulation and may even help with the clearance of the dead fat cells.  You may consider Profound Radiofrequency Microneedling or Renuvion subdermal coagulation to help with the areas of skin tightening. Glad you had a nice response to the Coolsculpting-it is a very effective way of reducing fat pockets.

Good afternoon and thank you for your question. I don't see any contraindication to use heat wraps after coolsculpting, just be careful if using on an area with numbess or disminished sensitivity as you don't want to burn yourself. Good luck!
