Cryolipolysis is a new process for treating localized fatty deposits which is based on the sensitivity of adipocytes to cold.
Historically, liposuction has been the most widely used procedure to remove unwanted and persistent fat. In recent years, technology has evolved and non-surgical options have emerged. Today, this non-invasive technique has a name: Cryolipolysis.
The goal is to freeze and eliminate fat cells without resorting to surgery. The procedure involves crystallizing fat cells which die off and are then naturally eliminated by the body. Cryolipolysis is effective, it is the subject of numerous scientific articles.
For who ?
L’opération s’adresse à ceux qui ne parviennent pas à se débarrasser de leur graisse indésirable lors de régimes ou d’exercices physiques La personne mince avec des zones rebelles de graisses localisées (comme une culotte de cheval un ventre “rebelle” au régimes) est une bonne candidate.
Provided you have a minimum of fat to treat Cryolipolysis is a good way to improve:
- double chin
- poignées d’amour
- back folds
- arm
- thighs
- gluteal fold
Expectations must be realistic, we cannot eliminate all the fat (which sometimes plays a hormonal role) but improve the appearance by reducing the volume.
The Cryolipolysis session
The duration of the session depends on the number of areas treated during your visit. It takes about an hour per zone.
Les résultats permettent une perte d’environ 20% du volume initial.
A session lasts about an hour during which a cryode (-5 ° C) is applied which lowers the temperature of the targeted area. As the cooling begins, you feel pressure and intense cold that dissipates quickly. The first results are visible from three weeks after the treatment. Approximately 20% of the adipocytes in the treated area will be eliminated within 4 months.
The initial consultation
La consultation initiale est l’occasion d’examiner corps, de discuter de vos motivations et de vous expliquer les résultats attendus.
It makes it possible to search for pathologies which may contraindicate the technique or the antecedents which may require rules of caution.
The risks
Although Cryolipolysis is safe, it is possible to experience a feeling of discomfort, tightness or deep tension during the operation. No recovery period is necessary.
Side effects are rare. The most common after the session are feelings of stiffness, pain, bruising, stinging and swelling. Skin burns are possible but a medical grade machine with permanent skin temperature controls and a mastered technique can limit this type of risk.
