A cooling chamber is positioned over the face or other areas of the body to direct cold air onto the injured tissues to retard or prevent swelling following plastic surgery. The device includes a domed wall or helmet which accommodates the head or body portion. Cold air from an air conditioning unit passes through a flexible hose into an inlet in the domed wall which widens into an open ended chamber. The air is distributed around the chamber by radial partitions or an inner porous wall which forms an air passageway for directing air into the desired areas. Hinged sections may provide selective compartments in the chamber to direct the air flow to specific facial areas. The unit may be adjustable, transportable and self-contained or attached to a wheeled table or bed.
