Treatment
Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing is a nonsurgical procedure that uses a handheld device placed on the skin that suctions, freezes and destroys fat tissue beneath the surface of the skin. The treatment is intended for contouring affected areas such as lower abdomen, love handles, upper and lower back, back of arms, and under the chin area.
In general, fat loss following treatment may be variable and is dependent on many factors.
However up to 20% of fat loss has been repeatedly shown in many studies. Most patients will see noticeable results within three months. Importantly, if you are serious about body contouring, you must eat well and exercise regularly during and after your treatment so you can optimize results.
Cryolipolysis is not intended for weight loss. Therefore, we recommend that you undertake a holistic approach to this treatment with our Nutritionist, who will provide dietary and exercise advice.
Following your consultation, the areas concerned will be marked accordingly.
A protective gel pad is then placed on the surface of the skin and excess fat will be suctioned into the Cryolipolysis pad. You should not feel pain, only some pressure and suction for the first few minutes of the treatment. After that, the target area will become numb to the cold. The treatment will last roughly 60 minutes.
After the procedure is over, the treated area will be red. The fat that’s been suctioned into the pad will produce a cold compacted mass of tissue, which is expected. The site will be massaged, and the mass should quickly disappear. As this is a no-downtime procedure, you’ll be free to continue with your regular activities right away.
We recommend a minimum of 4 treatment sessions to ensure you receive the best results, usually spaced 5 weeks apart to enable full recovery. In addition, we offer easy payment options such as Ezipay Q card and Oxipay.
Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing Machine utilizes the technology of Cryolipolysis and Multi Frequency Ultra-Sonic Cavitation.

Cryolipolysis is a non-invasive body contouring treatment used to reduce fat cell volume by freezing.[1][2][3]The method involves controlled application of cooling within the temperature range of +5 to -11 °C for the non-invasive, localized reduction of fat deposits, intending to reshape the contours of the body.[1][2] The degree of exposure to cooling causes cell death of subcutaneous fat tissue, without damage to the overlying skin.[2][4] The method has a low rate of complications, and is deemed to be safe and effective for fat reduction by about 20% at certain body sites.[1][2]
Side effect data are based on a limited experience. Transient local redness, bruising and numbness of the skin are common side effects of the treatment and are expected to subside.[8] Typically sensory deficits will subside within a month. The effect on peripheral nerves was investigated and failed to show permanent detrimental results.[4] No serious long-lasting side effects were encountered during follow-up time of six months.
