Cryolipolysis

What's it all about?

Cryolipolysis is a non-invasive fat removal procedure. It is the cooling of subcutaneous fat cells, which induces lipolysis, which is the breaking down of the fat cells, without damaging any of the surrounding tissues or the skin. Following the procedure, the fat breaks down over a period of two to four months, resulting in fat loss that appears entirely natural. During the procedure, non-invasive cooling panels are applied to the skin and the area of fat that you wish to treat is drawn upwards between the two panels. This will just feel like a firm pull, with a little bit of pressure, but it will not be painful. The fat cells will then be cooled for a period of time, depending on your personal needs. At first, the area that is being treated will feel very, very cold but after a little while you won’t notice the temperature difference.

The Science Behind it

Cryolipolysis works on the basis that fat cells are more vulnerable to energy extraction – in this case, cooling, than the surrounding tissues. That means that cryolipolysis will break down the fat cells, but not the surrounding tissues.

Once cooled, the fat cells then undergo apoptosis, which is controlled cell death. When apoptosis happens, the fat cell wall breaks down causing lipids (fats) from the cells to be released.

These lipids are transported by your lymphatic drainage system to be processed and eliminated through the body in the same way that fat from your food is eliminated. This process is very gradual, meaning that there is no danger of your lymphatic system being overloaded.

Advice & Recommendations

  • Some patients may suffer from temporary redness, soreness, numbness or tingling in the treated areas- this will only last a few hours

  • Please note that this is NOT a weight loss treatment, it is a fat reduction treatment to help with the stubborn areas
  • We recommend to have 2 treatments 4 weeks apart and then 4 treatments in a year
