Cryolipolysis , also known as CoolSculpting , is a non-invasive localized fat reduction procedure. It works by applying extreme cold to fat cells, causing them to freeze and dissolve naturally by the body.
This technique is often used to treat areas such as the stomach, love handles, thighs, and double chin. It is appreciated for not requiring anesthesia or surgery, and for allowing for a quick recovery.
However, it is important to note that cryolipolysis can cause side effects such as pain, tingling, and in rare cases, burning or frostbite. A prior consultation with a healthcare professional is therefore essential to determine if this method is suitable for your situation.
How does it work?
Cryolipolysis uses extremely cold temperatures to target and destroy fat cells. A specialized device is applied to the treatment area, cooling the fat cells without damaging the surrounding tissue. The frozen cells crystallize, break down, and are then naturally eliminated through the body's lymphatic system over time.
