Fat Freezing (Cryolipolysis)
Non-invasive fat reduction through controlled cooling
Fat freezing uses controlled cooling to crystallise and destroy fat cells in targeted areas, which the body then naturally clears over the following weeks — a non-invasive alternative to liposuction for smaller fat pockets.
Because fat cells are more sensitive to cold than surrounding skin and tissue, this technology can selectively target fat without needles or incisions, making it a popular no-downtime option for areas like the abdomen and flanks.
Key Benefits
- Non-invasive — no needles or incisions
- No downtime; return to normal activity immediately
- Permanent removal of treated fat cells
- Effective for common trouble areas like the abdomen and flanks
Is This Treatment Right For You?
- Patients with localised fat pockets who want to avoid surgery
- Those at or near their goal weight with focal fat concerns
- Anyone wanting a no-downtime contouring option
What to Expect
Area Assessment
The target fat pocket is measured and marked for applicator placement.
Cooling Application
A cooling applicator is placed on the area for the treatment duration.
Massage
The area is massaged post-treatment to enhance fat cell breakdown.
Natural Clearance
The body gradually clears destroyed fat cells over following weeks.
Recovery & Aftercare
Temporary redness, numbness or tingling in the treated area is common and resolves within days.
Frequently Asked Questions
When will I see results?
Initial changes are often visible from around 3 weeks, with full results developing over 2-3 months.
Is it painful?
Most patients feel intense cold and pulling sensation initially, which subsides as the area numbs during treatment.
How many sessions are needed?
Many patients see good results from a single session per area, though some choose a second session for enhanced reduction.
