Fat Freezing (Cryolipolysis)
Cryolipolysis, commonly referred to as fat freezing, is a non-surgical fat reduction procedure that uses low temperature to reduce fat deposits in certain areas of the body. The procedure is designed to reduce localized fat deposits or bulges that do not respond to diet and exercise. Not intended for people with obesity. The technique has been patented under the name CoolSculpting.
What areas of the body are best suited for cryolipolysis?
If you are considering using non-invasive cryolipolysis, also known as Coolscultping, Cryolipo, and Fat Freezing, to remove body fat, you should know that it cannot effectively hit all areas of your body. It has been designed to target certain types of fat and is most effective at freezing body fat in certain areas of the body. Cryolipolysis applicators work best on superficial fats. The fat must be close to the surface to safely freeze and kill the targeted fat cells.
- Stomach
- Chin
- Upper arms
- Waist & Hips – Love Handles
- Back Fat
- Outer & Inner Thighs
- Lower Bottom
How is cryolipolysis performed?
The size and shape of the fat deposit is assessed and the area to be treated is marked with a pencil. Patients are awake during the procedure.A hand-held device called an applicator is used to freeze the layer of fat cells (adipocytes) under the skin. First, a gel pad is applied to the area to protect the skin. The fat lump is then aspirated or suctioned into the hollow opening of the applicator. You will feel a tugging or pulling sensation when suction is applied. These sensations, the intense cold and other possible sensations—tingling, prickling, pain, cramping—will subside after 5 to 10 minutes as the area numbs during the cooling process. The fat layer is gradually cooled to a target temperature between 30.2 and 39.2 degrees Fahrenheit.Treatment of the area takes up to one hour. After treating the area, the applicator is removed. The area can be massaged for 2 to 3 minutes to help break down the fat cells.
