Cold
therapy is needed to help reduce post-operative swelling and bruising.
In everyday life, cold therapy helps reduce swelling and bruising resulting
from any type of injury. Many of the specialized products that are featured
in the Store function as both cold and hot compresses at the same time and can
thus be used to provide both cold and hot therapy to swollen and bruised areas.
Cold therapy has been shown to be greatly effective in reducing swelling by
slowing the flow of blood and other fluids to the injured area. A cold pack
is also beneficial in relieving the sensations of pain and restoring strength
and mobility more quickly so that patients can heal faster and feel better sooner.
A specialized cold compress is more comfortable and easier to use than an ice
pack, frozen peas, or other cold pack solution because the compress molds better
the contours of the face and neck, does not leak and does not put any pressure
on the skin because it is lighter than crushed ice. Cold compresses are quickly
chilled in the freezer (10-15 minutes depending on the product) or in the refrigerator.
These cold compress products can be used to reduce swelling and bruising resulting
from any type of injury. Additionally, these compresses are highly effective
for puffy eyes treatment, alleviation of tired eyes and headaches, relief from
clogged sinuses due to colds and allergies, and first aid for burns and trauma.

Hot
therapy delivered through a warm/hot compress or mask helps break
down and disintegrate bruising discolorations and provides moisture or dry heat
to areas of discomfort. Hot therapy can also be soothing on sore facial tissues
that have been tightened. You may use hot therapy on your bruises from days
around days 2-3 post-op (upon your doctor's approval) provided your swelling
is not too considerable. A compress is typically heated by boiling water, hot
tap water or by heating in a microwave. These hot compress products can be used
to reduce swelling and bruising resulting from any type of injury. Additionally,
these compresses are highly effective for puffy eyes treatment, alleviation
of tired eyes and headaches, relief from clogged sinuses due to colds and allergies,
and first aid for burns and trauma.
