Fat freezing is a term people use to describe a range of treatments like body sculpting or non-surgical liposuction, achieved through cryolipolysis. Scientific studies have shown fat freezing effectively kills fat cells in a targeted area at the time of treatment. Our fat freezing treatments freeze your fat cells, targeting problem areas that can be resistant to diet and exercise. The extreme cooling process – cryolipolysis – then targets and eliminates fat cells that are present at the time of treatment without damaging the surrounding tissue.
Fat freezing works by utilising the body’s natural response to cold temperatures. Fat cells are more sensitive to cold than other cells in the body, and when cooled to the correct temperature, crystallise and die. This does not affect any other cells in the body. After your cryolipolysis treatment is complete, your body will naturally collect the damaged fat cells and eliminate them. This is why you can safely complete a fat freezing treatment without any downtime, unlike more traditional liposculpture procedures.
