Stubborn fat is difficult to get rid of, regardless of diet and exercise. AW3® Cryolpolysis technology uses controlled freezing to target and break down the fat cells. In just a few weeks, these fat cells will naturally eliminate from the body for good.
Fat freezing or Cryolipolysis is a non-surgical treatment used to destroy fat cells. Using controlled cooling of the targeted area to near sub-zero temperatures for non-invasive localised decreases in fat deposits in order to reshape the body. Fat freezing has been approved by the FDA and is one of the safest non-surgical
procedures available.
The Science of Fat Freezing
The procedure of fat removal by freezing is known as apoptosis (controlled cell death). Fat cells that are cooled below body temperature die followed by a local inflammatory response. Cryolipolysis also makes use of a powerful vacuum which adds to the inflammatory response by drawing blood up to the surface layers of the skin killing the cells. Fat cells are gradually eliminated from the body through the body’s natural waste disposal system called the lymphatic system.
The usual treatment areas are belly, underarms, love handles, upper legs, bum, but your consultant will discuss your specific aims prior to starting treatment.
A fat freeze handle is placed on the area of treatment. This creates localised cooling which freeze the fat cells of the targeted area, causing them to leave the body.
No, you may feel a small pinch which subsides within minutes once the area gets cooled. There should be no discomfort during the fat freezing treatment.
Typically a fat freezing session lasts 30 minutes per area
Most people are suitable for fat freezing but you’ll receive a free one to one consultation where you can discuss any concerns you may have.
Mild redness sometimes occurs but this usually goes within a week.
