Medical cryolipolysis freezes fat cells to -12 degree Celcius for an average of 40 to 60 minutes, resulting in the destruction and permanent removal of fat cells by the body. It is the ideal treatment for those looking to sculpt their body and lose unsightly fat rolls. This technique is non-invasive and does not require any anaesthesia, however it is a medical procedure and must be conducted and supervised by a medical doctor. During the session, your doctor will measure the thickness of fat tissue using an ultrasound scanner, after which he or she will apply protective gel pads over the skin of the area to be treated. Next, applicators are placed over the gel pad, and the fat crystallisation process begins. There are a wide range of available applicators of varying sizes to treat different parts of the face and body. Possible treatment areas include chin, lower and upper abdomen, calves, arms, inner and outer thighs, back and buttocks. Medical cryolipolysis can also help with conditions such as gynaecomastia (abnormal and excessive enlargement of male breasts). You will begin to see results roughly 8 weeks after your session. It is generally recommended to perform one to three sessions in the same area to get the desired results. Whilst fat is crystallised, destroyed and permanently removed from your body, it is crucial to remember to take good care of your new body with a healthy lifestyle.
