Will taking an allergy medication such as Zyrtec or any anti-histamine 2 days after CoolSculpting affect the results?

Thanks for your question. Allergy medications like Zyrtec will not hinder the healing process or affect your results after a CoolSculpting treatment The reason some doctors advise you to refrain from nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen or naproxen is due to their ability to exacerbate bruising after treatment. Most doctors encourage patients to take Tylenol for any post-treatment comfort instead, since acetaminophen does not have the same effect. I hope this helps!

Rest assured that allergy medication will not affect the results of your CoolSculpting treatment in any way. The device delivers controlled cooling to your fat cells, causing them to crystalize so they can be eliminated by the body. This process will not be impacted by the use of antihistamines.

Taking the above medications will have no impact on the post procedure progress or outcome of coolsculpting. Rest assured that is totally fine to use after your treatments. Best of luck.
