Can I Do CoolPeel If I’m on GLP-1s or Hormone Therapy?
If you’re taking GLP-1 medication or going through hormone therapy, you might be wondering if treatments like CoolPeel are still safe. The short answer: yes but timing and preparation make all the difference.
How Medications Affect Healing
GLP-1s can slow healing because they reduce blood flow to the skin and may affect nutrient absorption. Hormone therapy, on the other hand, can change how your skin reacts to inflammation and collagen stimulation. While these shifts are mild, they matter when planning a laser procedure.
Why CoolPeel Still Works
CoolPeel is a fractionated CO2 laser that uses controlled energy to resurface the skin without causing excess heat or trauma. This makes it safe for patients on GLP-1s or hormone therapy, as long as your provider adjusts the timing and post-care routine to support recovery.
Perfect for Skin Tightening After Weight Loss
Many GLP-1 patients notice loose or dull skin as they lose weight. CoolPeel helps tighten and renew skin by triggering collagen remodeling. Combined with medical-grade skincare or regenerative treatments, it can restore firmness and glow.

The Bottom Line
CoolPeel is safe for most patients on GLP-1s or hormone therapy when done under expert supervision.
