Fat Freezing Featured

What is Fat Freezing?

First things first: fat freezing, or cryolipolysis, is a non-surgical fat removal procedure that targets and eliminates stubborn fat cells by exposing them to sub-zero temperatures. 

During the treatment, the fatty areas are cooled to crystallise the fat cells, which are then naturally removed by the body’s lymphatic system. 

After the treatment, the targeted areas of your body will appear slimmer and more toned. 

If you’re looking for an effective solution for removing stubborn fat pockets from your body, it is a perfect choice.

 

The Fat Freezing Process at VIVO Body Studio

Consultation and Assessment

Before your treatment session, you’ll have a consultation with one of our clinical consultants. 

They’ll discuss your goals and reasons for choosing cryolipolysis and measure the areas to be treated. 

This step ensures that it is the right treatment for you and helps in designing a personalised treatment plan. 

During this consultation, you’ll learn how the procedure can help you achieve your desired results.

Preparing for the Treatment

On the day of your appointment, wear loose and comfortable clothing. 

Our specialist will mark the treatment areas and apply a gel pad to protect your skin from the extreme cold. 

The cryolipolysis applicator will then be placed over the targeted fatty area, which is suctioned into the device’s cavity. 

This step is crucial for ensuring the effectiveness of the session.

The Fat Freezing Treatment Session

The temperature inside the applicator will gradually drop to between -7°C and -8°C. 

You might feel vacuum suction and intense cooling, leading to sensations of tingling, numbness, and possibly minor aches or cramps. 

However, any discomfort typically subsides within 5 to 10 minutes. 

A typical fat freezing session at our clinic lasts around 30 minutes to an hour, and you can resume your usual activities immediately afterward. 

Our in-clinic treatment is designed to be convenient and efficient, allowing you to get back to your day without delay.

 

How Effective is Fat Freezing?

When performed correctly, it can be an exceptionally effective treatment. 

Results can vary from patient to patient, but they are generally long-lasting. 

Since the adult body has a limited number of fat cells, the removal of these cells through cryolipolysis is permanent. 

To prolong the results, it’s crucial to follow the recommended aftercare guidelines and maintain a healthy and balanced lifestyle. 

 

How Many Cryolipolysis Applicators Will I Need?

The number of applicators used during the procedure varies depending on the size and area being treated. 

A standard applicator is 20cm, roughly the size of your palm. 

You can use your palm to measure the treatment area to get an estimate of the number of applicators that may be required.

 

360° Freeze: An Advanced Fat Freezing Option 

While essentially the same procedure, 360° Freeze is a more advanced version of fat freezing. 

The standard cryolipolysis treatment uses applicators that freeze fat from two sides, but 360° Freeze uses special applicators that target fat cells from all angles. 

This means 360° Freeze can eliminate more fat cells per session due to better coverage and temperature control. 

This advanced technique is available at VIVO Body Studio, offering an even more effective treatment.

 

The Number of Fat Freezing Sessions Needed

The number of fat freezing sessions needed to achieve desired results depends on the size of the area being treated and the amount of fat that needs to be removed. 

Some patients achieve their desired results with just one session, while others may need several sessions. 

On average, a patient can expect to see a 22% to 45% fat reduction after a single cryolipolysis session. 

At VIVO Body Studio, we tailor each fat freezing treatment plan to meet your specific needs and goals.

 

Fat Freezing Post-Treatment Care and Recovery

Because cryolipolysis is non-surgical, there is no downtime afterward. 

You can immediately return to your daily activities after the procedure without any recovery period. 

To ensure optimal results, follow the post-treatment guidelines provided by our specialists at VIVO Body Studio. 

Maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise routine after cryolipolysis is crucial. 

While the body doesn’t replace the removed fat cells, the remaining fat cells can grow larger if you don’t maintain a healthy lifestyle. 

Therefore, following a balanced diet and staying active can help you maintain the fantastic results from your fat freezing treatment.

 

Addressing Common Concerns about Fat Freezing Treatments

  • Cryolipolysis is not a weight loss procedure. It effectively removes fat cells by freezing them, but it may not result in noticeable weight loss. Fat freezing is designed to contour and sculpt the body rather than facilitate significant weight loss.
  • The body doesn’t replace the removed fat cells, but remaining fat cells can grow larger if you consume more calories than you burn. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle after your fat freezing treatment is essential to preserve your results.
  • Fat freezing generally does not result in long-lasting side effects. Common short-term effects include temporary numbness, slight swelling, and temporary redness. These side effects are typically mild and resolve quickly after your fat freezing session.
  • Besides the abdomen, cryolipolysis is effective on various parts of the body including the chin, arms, chest, thighs, buttocks, and upper and lower back. Fat freezing treatments can be tailored to your specific needs, allowing you to target multiple areas for comprehensive body contouring.
  • Cryolipolysis isn’t suitable for treating cellulite or tightening sagging skin. However, VIVO Body Studio offers specialised treatments for these concerns, including Cellulite Reduction Treatment and Radio Frequency Tummy Tightening. These complementary treatments can enhance the overall results of your fat freezing sessions.
