Plastic surgery ice packs for post-procedure recovery and aftercare
This page is focused on facial recovery, post-procedure comfort, and branded patient aftercare for surgical and recovery workflows where targeted treatment-area fit matters more than broad homepage-level keyword targeting.
How surgical practices actually use these
How plastic surgery practices actually use these gel packs
After rhinoplasty, a facelift, blepharoplasty, or breast augmentation, swelling management is one of the most important parts of the recovery protocol — and one of the first things patients ask about. A reusable branded gel pack handed to patients at discharge turns routine aftercare into a premium patient experience that reinforces care quality every time they reach for it.
We've been manufacturing reusable gel packs in the USA since 2004, and our products are FDA-registered. Most plastic surgery practices start with the 4" round for targeted facial recovery, then add a 5x5 or 5x7 for broader post-surgical coverage. You include it in the recovery kit, your patient goes home with your logo in their freezer, and when their friend asks who did their rhinoplasty they'll pull out the pack with your name on it. Order a sample pack for $1 shipping to feel the quality before you commit, or ask for a free virtual proof with your logo.

Frequently asked questions
Plastic surgery ice pack questions, answered
Real questions we hear from surgical practices every week. Don't see yours? Call 888-247-7459 or order the $1 sample pack and we'll walk you through it.
What size ice pack works best for rhinoplasty and facelift recovery?+
For rhinoplasty and eye procedures, the 4" round is the most precise fit — it contours naturally against the nose and orbital area without covering the whole face. For facelifts and jaw contouring, the 5x5 or 5x7 gives broader coverage. For body procedures, the 3x5 is a practical patient take-home size.
Can I print my practice's logo on the ice packs?+
Yes — that's what most of our surgical practice clients order. We print your full-color logo directly onto the pack, and you can choose the pack color to match your aesthetic. Send us your logo and we'll send back a free virtual proof before anything goes into production.
What's the minimum order quantity?+
MOQs vary by product and are listed on each product page. Head to the specific product you're interested in to see the exact minimum for that size and color.
How long does it take to produce custom branded ice packs?+
Production lead time is 10 business days from the point your virtual proof is approved. If you need them for a specific patient cohort or clinic launch, mention it and we'll let you know what's possible.
Are these appropriate for post-surgical patient use?+
Yes. Gelpax gel packs are FDA-registered and designed for repeated therapeutic use. They freeze solid, stay flexible when cold, and are appropriate for use as part of a post-procedure cold therapy protocol as directed.
Can I get a sample before placing a bulk order?+
Yes. Our sample pack is free — you just pay $1 for shipping. It comes with a generic Gelpax logo so you can feel the print quality, gel weight, and test the size against actual recovery areas before committing to a full run.
Are Gelpax products FDA-registered?+
Yes — our gel pack products are FDA-registered. We've been manufacturing reusable hot and cold therapy packs in the USA since 2004, working with thousands of surgical and medical practices across the country.
