How is Cryolipolysis Performed?
The procedure can be performed in a doctor’s office or outpatient clinic. The size and shape of the fat deposits are assessed, and the areas to be treated are outlined with a skin marking pen. While the patient is awake during the fat-freezing treatment.
A hand-held device called an applicator is used to freeze the layer of fat cells under the skin. First, a gel pad is applied to the affected area to protect the skin. Next, the fat bulge is sucked into the perforated opening of the applicator. When suction is applied, a pulling sensation will be felt. The sensations, intense coldness and other possible sensations – tingling, pins and needles, pain and cramps will subside after 5-10 minutes as the area becomes numb during the cooling process. The fat layer is gradually cooled down to the target temperature.
It takes one hour to treat one area. Once the area is treated, the applicator is removed. The area can be massaged for 2-3 minutes to help destroy the fat cells.
How Are Fat Cells Destroyed?
According to the professionals offering fat freezing in Sydney and Penrith, this technique is based on the finding that fat cells are more susceptible to damage from cold temperatures compared to other cells, like skin cells. Cold temperatures damage fat cells. The damage triggers an inflammatory response by the body that results in the death of fat cells. Macrophages, a type of white blood cells are part of the body’s immune system and are called to the site of injury, removing dead fat cells and debris from the body.
Expected Fat Loss After One Session
