    Cryolipolysis, the natural slimming treatment by the cold

    Over time it is sometimes harder to get rid of some fat pads that are resistant to diets and sport.

    Cryolipolysis is a natural method when cold is used to remove fat effectively.

    Also called lipocryolysis, this technology is a natural physiological process without surgery that is considered as a real alternative to liposuction.

    Cryolipolysis technique

    Cryolipolysis is performed by a machine containing “suction cups” that will be applied to the area that you want to thin. Cryolipolysis will then combine suction and cooling at a temperature between -4 and -8° (called PELTIER effect).

    A crystallization of the fat cells will occur without touching surrounding tissues that are not damaged by this cold.

    These crystallized fat cells enter a process called apoptosis (a kind of programmed death) that results in an elimination of fat targeted by Cryolipolysis out of the body.

    Result: the fat folds are reduced and we get a slender and refined silhouette.

    This method is non-invasive that is to say that there is no surgery, no need for anesthesia. It does not require significant effort in your schedule (35 minutes to 1 hour session) and you can then return directly to your daily activities.
    The practice of sport is even possible 2 hours after the session.

    Cryolipolysis can effectively and painlessly treat many areas: belly, waist, hips (love handles), back, arms, saddle bags, thighs, neck, chin, pectorals…

    Moreover, this technique that could be called liposuction by cold is very effective against cellulite.

    Slimming treatment with Cryolipolysis


    We particularly recommend Cryolipolysis for:
    – people with normal BMI without overweight but who cannot get rid of certain areas of fat.
    – people wishing to lose between 5 and 10 kg and refine their silhouette.
    – people who want to remove cellulite.

    It’s a boost, a natural and non-invasive method, without anesthesia or surgery.

    Slimming session of Cryolipolysis

    A doctor performs an examination and determines the indication, the area to be treated, and the number of sessions…

    Then the person is installed in a chair. The areas to be treated are cleaned, a protective membrane is applied on the area where the applicator is installed.

    Then the fat pad is gradually sucked in and the temperature drops to the programmed level.

    You do not feel pain just a little unpleasant feeling of skin tightness at first, then the cold relieves all these sensations.

    The duration can vary between 35 minutes and 2 hours depending on the size and number of areas to be treated.

    At the end of the session, a massage is performed while the temperature returns to normal.
    The results are gradual and the treated area loses fat during 4 to 8 weeks after the treatment (time needed for the body to eliminate crystallized fat cells).
    In average, one session of Cryolipolysis allows to remove about 30% of the fat in the treated area, the silhouette gets thinner.
    To eliminate more fat, a second or even a third session can be scheduled in the same area from 3 weeks to 1 month later.

    In addition to the Cryolipolysis treatment, it is possible to perform a HIFU Ultrasound micro focused treatment (see here) which allows the tensioning of the skin or a treatment against stretch marks (see here).
