Cryolipolysis is also known as fat freezing. It is a non-surgical way to get rid of fat. The treatment reduces fat deposits by using freezing temperatures. It targets fat deposits or bulges that won't disappear with diet and exercise. This treatment is also known as Cool Sculpting. Let's learn more about this treatment.

How does this fat freezing in London work?

A skin-marking pencil is used to determine the size of fat deposits and draw them out. The best part is that the patient remains awake during the entire procedure.

A handheld device is typically used to freeze the fat cells beneath your skin. A gel pad is applied to the targeted area before the treatment begins. The next step is to vacuum or suction the fat bulge into the hollow opening.

You may feel a tugging sensation such as cramping or aching after applying suction. The area will numb after a few minutes, and the fat layer will cool down.

You will need to wait approximately an hour for treatment in one area.  

How does this destroy fat cells?

This technique states that fat cells are more susceptible to being damaged by cold temperatures. Cold temperatures cause damage to fat cells and trigger an inflammatory response which causes fat cells to die.

Multiple studies have shown that fat can be reduced by up to 28% four months after the first session. You may need to wait at least three weeks before seeing any noticeable results. You may need to wait around two months for dramatic improvements.
