Antibiotics will decrease the result of CoolSculpting?

pianolele
I'm taking Minocycline for acne at the moment and I just had my inner thigh sculpted last week. I'm wondering if taking antibiotics will decrease the inflammation caused by the procedure,which is what's suppose to happen, and therefore has a negative effect on seeing the result? Should I stop Minocycline for now?
