Skin care after CoolSculpting and EmSculpt

The short answerCoolSculpting and EmSculpt work beneath the skin, so the skin itself needs little aftercare. What it benefits from is attention to firmness and texture while results develop. Alastin makes a body treatment specifically to apply after body-sculpting treatments.

Day by day

General guidance. Your provider's aftercare instructions come first.

First few daysAfter CoolSculpting the area can feel numb, tender or swollen. After EmSculpt, muscles can feel like they had a hard workout. Both settle.
Weeks afterResults build gradually over the following weeks and months. Daily body care keeps the skin itself looking its best as they do.

Why skincare still matters after body contouring

The treatment changes what is underneath. The skin on top is what you see and touch, so firmness, smoothness and sun protection are where a body routine earns its place.
