Cryolipolysis may also be referred to commonly as fat freezing, this procedure is a non-surgical fat reduction procedure that uses cold temperature to help reduce fat deposits within certain areas of the body.

Cryolipolysis was created to reduce localized fat deposits or bulges within the body that are not responding appropriately to diet and exercise. However, it should be mentioned that Cryolipolysis is not intended for individuals who are obese or significantly overweight.

Cryolipolysis allows our patients to focus on a few areas of the body for fat reduction, including:

– Thighs
– Stomach
– Lower back
– Sides
– Arms
– Neck
– Chin

The benefits of Cryolipolysis are focused on the way it helps to reduce our patient’s appearance of cellulite, which can be commonly found on the buttocks, arms, and back of the legs. Cryolipolysis on average takes an hour to complete each section that the patient is wanting to have treated for fat reduction. The more areas of the body that you want to work on, the more treatment that will be necessary to see your desired results.

Cryolipolysis is an effective treatment for fat reduction, as it provides multiple benefits over what it was created for which is fat reduction. Cryolipolysis works to eliminate the body’s fat cells through the natural bodily process. Cryolipolysis is a non-surgical procedure, meaning no incisions necessary, and the results from this treatment prove that any area (mostly) can be treated to remove lingering fat cells by 20%-25% per treatment. If you combined the Cryolipolysis treatment with a healthy diet and exercise, as well as consistent water intake, you will help the process of Cryolipolysis by ridding the dead fat cells faster after your treatment.

Many of our patients will need multiple Cryolipolysis sessions completed to begin seeing the difference they were hoping for. Each treatment of Cryolipolysis will reach around a max of 20%-25% fat reduction per area. If you are hoping to reach around a 50% or higher fat reduction loss, the more treatments you complete will help you reach your goal results sooner. This is why it is best to always complete a consultation appointment with our clinic first, where you are able to ask all of your questions and get all the information necessary before your Cryolipolysis appointment can complete.

The main difference between CoolSculpting and Cryolipolysis, is the brand name “CoolSculpting”. When you choose a clinic that provides “CoolSculpting” services, you are not essentially paying for a better fat reduction process, you are paying for the name that comes with the same exact service as Cryolipolysis. Both offer non-surgical, medical-grade alternatives to fat reduction surgery, with no downtime or needles necessary.

While they use the same gold-standard machines, what you should be looking for is the difference each clinic that provides the service will offer:

– Clinic specialist’s training and experience
– Advanced medical-grade technology donning the store
– Personalized service
– Prescriptive treatments
– Presentation of the clinic
– Clinic is backed by a medical team

Cryolipolysis is a non-invasive and safe alternative to other fat reduction services like liposuction. With Cryolipolysis, you do not need time to recover or downtime once the treatment has commenced, unlike other fat reduction services.

There are a few common side effects that you may notice if your complete treatment of Cryolipolysis:

– Aches

– Firmness
– Itchiness
– Muscle spasms
– Redness
