Cryolipolysis or Fat Freezing

How does cryolipolysis or fat freezing work?

Are you looking for an effective way to get rid of stubborn rolls of fat without surgery? Cryolipolysis, also known as Coolsculpting, may be a suitable treatment option. This method uses selective cooling to remove fat, without pain or anesthesia. An added benefit is that there is no recovery time required, so you can quickly resume your daily activities.

Cryolipolysis is the technique to remove local fat in places where exercise and diet do not help. The fat cells are frozen (-10°C) and die (apoptosis) and are naturally removed by the lymphatic system in the following months.

The heads then suck up excess fat deposits and cool them to a specific temperature. This freezes excess fat cells without affecting your blood or other surrounding tissues.

What does cryolipolysis involve?

Cryolipolysis is a treatment that freezes fat cells in specific areas of the body, after which they are naturally eliminated by the body. It is a non-invasive procedure without needles or anesthesia, and recovery time is minimal. During the treatment, the tissue surrounding the fat cells is not damaged. The procedure is performed using a special device that clamps the roll of fat between two cooling plates. The temperature is lowered to -10 degrees Celsius, which affects the structure of the fat cells, causing them to break down. The treatment usually takes 1 to 2 hours, depending on the number of areas treated.

What are the results?

8 weeks after the treatment, the broken down fat cells are gradually removed by the body, via your metabolism through mild water. Because the fat cells disappear gradually, the skin can calmly adapt to prevent sagging.

  1. Why better results with this new cryolipolysis technique?

Cryolipolysis, thanks to an innovative approach to fat reduction, reaches a temperature of 45°C in a few minutes, followed by freezing to -10°C . This means that fat cells cannot adapt to low temperatures as before. By heating fats first and then freezing them, the treatment is more effective, resulting in a greater reduction in fat cells.
