What is cryolipolysis: Freezing your fat cells

Cryolipolysis is a breakthrough, non-invasive procedure that uses cooling technology to noticeably eliminate fat without surgery. It selectively targets fat bulges and eliminates fat cells through a gradual process that does not harm the surrounding tissues, thus reducing unwanted fat by freezing it.

Exposing fat cells to precise cooling triggers a process of natural removal that gradually reduces the thickness of fat layers. Unwanted fat cells in the treated area are gently eliminated through the body's normal metabolism process; after the fat cells are frozen, they are naturally disposed by the body.

In a nutshell, cryolipolysis can provide you with visible, permanent results without surgery.

CRYOLIPOLYSIS: REMOVING FAT WITHOUT SURGERY

CoolSculpting® is the only provider of cryolipolysis that is scientifically proven and FDA approved. The CoolSculpting® cryolipolysis treatment was developed by scientists at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, a hospital of the Harvard Medical School. 

Researchers discovered that fat cells are affected by the cold, which led to the development of an innovative cooling process in which the fat cells under the skin are strongly cooled. Once you freeze the treated fat cells, they die off and are naturally disposed by the body in the period following the treatment. This causes the fat cell to permanently disappear from the body. The procedure is very precise as well as safe.

Below we try to answer some frequently asked questions about cryolipolysis:

What is cryolipolysis?

Cryolipolysis provides the most effective solution to improve and control the orange skin and localized fat through a combination of the latest aesthetic technologies. The best results are achiever following a few sessions.

What are the applications of fat freezing extreme shaping?

Fat freezing extreme shaping is effective in controlling and improving the orange skin and localized fat, with skin markings also used as muscle relaxant.

On what areas can cryolipolysis be applied?

Cryolipolysis can be applied anywhere on the body where there is regular skin (e.g. buttocks, legs, abdomen, arms, etc.)

Does cryolipolysis hurt?

Cryolipolysis sessions are not painful, since only non-invasive techniques are used. In addition, the vacuum applied also serves as a relaxing massage that serves in general towards wellbeing.

Do I have to do other things to lose the fat?

The more you do to help yourself lose fat, the bigger the results that you will achieve. You will lose 1 inch from the cryolipolysis treatment alone, and can lose up to 5 inches with major lifestyle changes, like diet and exercise during the time you are receiving sessions.

What do I need to do to keep the fat that I lost in cyrolipolysis off?

It helps to do the normally recommended actions to avoid gaining weight, such as dieting, exercising, drinking water, etc.

Where does the fat go?

That fat can be burned as energy in the body, or be normally lost as a bi-product of metabolic processes, just like the body loses fat after exercising. The body often rids itself of the fat through urine.

How quickly will I see the results of cryolipolysis?

Many clients see measurable results after their first session, but multiple sessions are recommended to achieve the best results.

What are the results of cryolipolysis?

The loss of 1-5 inches on average. The biggest amount fat loss achieved following 9 sessions is 23 inches. People who pair cryolipolysis with minor lifestyle changes achieve results that are on the higher end of the average, and those who don't, the lower end.
