Fat freezing, or cryolipolysis, is a non-invasive procedure that targets and eliminates fat cells by freezing them. This technique, often used to contour and shape areas like the abdomen and thighs, results in a reduction of fat without surgery. Over time, the body naturally processes and removes the frozen fat cells, leading to a slimmer appearance.

What is fat freezing (cryolipolysis)?

 

 

 

 

Fat freezing, or cryolipolysis, is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses cold temperatures to freeze and destroy fat cells. The procedure is designed to reduce stubborn fat pockets that are resistant to diet and exercise.

How does fat freezing work?

During a fat freezing session, a device is applied to the targeted area, which cools the fat cells to a temperature that triggers their natural death (apoptosis). Over the following weeks, the body naturally processes and eliminates these dead fat cells, resulting in a reduction of fat in the treated area.

What areas of the body can be treated with fat freezing?

Fat freezing is commonly used to treat areas such as the abdomen, love handles (flanks), thighs, back (bra fat), upper arms, and under the chin (double chin). It is important to note that cryolipolysis is intended for localized fat reduction and is not a weight loss solution for overall body fat.

Is fat freezing safe?

Fat freezing is generally considered safe when performed by a trained and qualified healthcare provider. It is a non-surgical procedure with minimal downtime and fewer risks compared to invasive fat reduction methods like liposuction. Common side effects may include temporary numbness, redness, bruising, or mild discomfort at the treatment site.

What results can I expect from fat freezing?

Results from fat freezing treatments are gradual and typically become noticeable within a few weeks to months after the procedure. Many individuals experience a noticeable reduction in fat bulges in the treated area, leading to a more contoured appearance. Results can vary based on individual factors such as body composition and lifestyle
