Our Story

In October 2023, after much deliberation and research, Lori, the founder of The Cold Compress Company (The CCC), decided to enhance her lips. Following the procedure, the clinic provided her with a cold compress bearing their branding. Lori appreciated the professional touch, but after a few hours, she noticed significant swelling. Frustrated, she found herself torn between icing her lips to reduce the discomfort and managing her daily responsibilities, like answering emails and completing essays. She couldn’t do both, and the swelling worsened as a result.

Searching online and consulting with aesthetic practitioners, Lori discovered a surprising gap; there were no hands-free solutions to soothe swollen lips after treatments. This seemed baffling, considering the aesthetics industry, particularly lip enhancements, is worth billions of pounds globally. Determined to find a solution, Lori decided to design and create a hands-free lip cold compress herself.

Thus, The Lips was born. Now patented in the UK, this innovative product is set to revolutionise not only the aesthetics market but also the sports and piercing industries. The Lips features an adjustable head strap, enabling users to continue with their daily tasks while managing swelling or discomfort. Whether recovering from a cosmetic procedure, a sports injury, or a piercing, individuals no longer have to choose between effective aftercare and productivity.

This lightbulb moment inspired Lori to think bigger. She realised the market was lacking inclusive, adjustable, and hands-free cold compresses for a range of needs. That’s why The Cold Compress Company exists: to be the go-to destination for innovative, practical, and hands-free cold compress solutions.

At The CCC, we’re not just selling products—we’re ‘taking care of the after care’.
