Is shaving necessary before CoolSculpting?

Hi there! Thanks for your question! You do not need to shave prior to your CoolSculpting treatment, as it will not affect the procedure. Best of luck!

Hello and thank you for your inquiry. No, shaving is not necessary prior to a Coolsculpting procedure. 

Hi, thanks for your question. No, no need to shave prior to your CoolSculpting treatment. If you have any other questions or concerns don't hesitate to speak to your CoolSculpting provider.

The quick answer is no. Our patients do fine with the hair still in place. Sometimes if really hairy then it might be a little tricky for the applicator but it works fine.  The hair and skin are spared during the process of freezing the fat.  

Shaving is not needed in the treatment areas because the hair does not interfere with the treatment nor get affected by the Coolsculpting process. 

It is not necessary to shave hair on the abdomen prior to a CoolSculpting treatment.  The procedure will not affect hair growth and the hair will not affect the results of the treatment.  

CoolSculpting is a non-invasive procedure that uses a vacuum applicator to draw in skin and underlying subcutaneous fat to deliver controlled cooling. This penetrates below the skin causing permanent elimination of fat. It can be administered in a variety of areas on the body, including the jaw and chin area, lower and upper abdomen, back, arms, and thighs. Shaving is not necessary.

Nope, you don't need to shave - you are ready to go as you are! I would recommend you use CoolSculpting's official website to find a genuine Coolsculpting practitioner, as there are a lot of copycat devices (which I believe are not as effective). Good luck!

This is a very common question. You do not need to shave before coolSculpting, the hair on the stomach will not interfere with the procedure. You will love the results. Best of luck!

Hello and thank you for your question. There is no need to shave prior to coolsculpting. Best wishes with your treatment!
