After cryolipolysis, it is necessary to take effective and scientific care of the treated area in order to accelerate recovery and ensure the best results. So what should we pay attention to after cryolipolysis?
Apply ice packs after cryolipolysis
Within one day after cryolipolysis, there may be mild redness, swelling, skin sensitivity, itching, and other discomforts. Applying ice packs can help alleviate these symptoms. If the symptoms are severe, seek medical treatment promptly. Additionally, avoid using hot water to wash the treated area.
Apply sunscreen after cryolipolysis
After cryolipolysis, it is important to protect the treated area from sun exposure for at least six months. Minimize outdoor activities, and if going outside is necessary, apply sunscreen under the guidance of a doctor. It is best to choose natural and gentle sunscreens or wear long-sleeved clothing, long pants, sun hats, and use umbrellas to minimize sun exposure.
Pay attention to diet after cryolipolysis
After cryolipolysis, it is important to consume fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C to promote skin whitening and enhance skin's resistance. Additionally, avoid consuming excessive spicy and irritating foods to prevent interference with the recovery of the treated area.
Choose appropriate clothing after cryolipolysis
After cryolipolysis, it is important to pay attention to clothing choices. It is generally recommended not to wear clothes with deep dyeing to prevent the pigmentation of the skin pores. Also, avoid wearing dark-colored clothes to prevent skin inflammation. It is best to choose cotton-colored clothing to reflect sunlight.
Avoid further hair removal after cryolipolysis
After cryolipolysis, it is important to avoid using other hair removal methods for at least one month, especially depilatory creams, shaving devices, and other physical hair removal methods. These methods may cause skin inflammation and ultimately result in pigmentation.
Avoid swimming after cryolipolysis
After cryolipolysis, it is important to maintain cleanliness and hygiene of the treated area. Swimming can cause the treated area to darken due to sun exposure and is not always clean and healthy. If you plan to swim in the summer, it is best to undergo cryolipolysis at least one month in advance.
