The Science of Fat Freezing

Fat cells freeze at higher temperatures than surrounding tissue. By applying controlled cooling to targeted areas, we safely crystalize the fat cells without damaging your skin or surrounding tissue.

The destroyed fat cells are then naturally processed and permanently eliminated by your lymphatic system over 6-12 weeks. The result is a measurable reduction in the thickness of the fat layer in the treated area.

Key Benefits

Permanently destroys fat cells (not just shrinking).
Non-invasive with zero recovery time.
Natural-looking, gradual results over 2-3 months.
FDA-cleared and clinically proven.

What to Expect

The applicator is placed on the target area, drawing the tissue up between two cooling panels. You will feel intense cold and a pulling sensation initially, which numbs after a few minutes. A session typically lasts 45-60 minutes per area.

After the treatment, the area is massaged to break up the frozen fat cells and enhance results. There is no downtime, you can return to normal activities immediately. Results develop gradually over 2-3 months as your body eliminates the destroyed fat cells.

Cryolipolysis FAQs

Common questions about this specific treatment.

Is it permanent?

Yes. Once fat cells are destroyed and eliminated, they cannot return or regenerate. However, remaining fat cells can still expand if you gain weight, so a healthy lifestyle is recommended.

How many areas can be treated at once?

Typically 1-2 areas can be treated in one session depending on the size and your treatment plan. We will advise on the optimal approach during your consultation.

When will I see results?

Results develop gradually over 2-3 months as your body naturally flushes out the destroyed fat cells. Many clients start noticing visible changes around 6 weeks.
