Cryolipolysis
Cryolipolysis or fat freezing, is a non-invasive treatment in which freezing of the fat occurs through a process called apoptosis (cell death), resulting in an average 20-25% fat reduction. Once the fat cells are destroyed, they exit the body through the lymphatic system. This cooling technology requires no surgery and has been proven to target and reduce fat in your problem areas for men and women of all ages.

We recommend to bring a change of clothes, if you are going out in public afterwards, as we use an antifreeze membrane to place over your skin which is sticky and can be messy. This does not damage your clothes.

Avoid Aspirin and Ibuprofen during the treatment.
Follow a healthy eating plan.
Exercise at least 1 hour per week to help assist your metabolism.
Drink an abundance of water to help flush out the toxins.
Lymphatic massages will help accelerate the process of removing the fat cells.
Avoid sun-beds or direct UV exposure for a minimum of 1 week and apply SPF daily to protect the skin.
Do not take aspirin or other anticoagulant medications as this can hinder the healing process.
You may resume normal cleansing 24 hours after treatment but avoid fragranced products at the treatment area.
Allow 2 weeks before continuing any laser/IPL treatments at the treatment site.
