What Really is Fat Freezing or Cryolipolysis?

Fat freeze, also known as cryolipolysis, is a non-invasive procedure that uses cold temperatures to destroy fat cells in targeted areas of the body. This technology was first introduced in the early 2000s and has since become a popular alternative to traditional liposuction. The procedure is painless, and there is no downtime required, making it an excellent option for individuals who do not want to undergo surgery.

“Fat freezing is a great alternative to traditional methods of fat loss, proving that you don’t have to sacrifice your health for results!”

Does Fat Freeze Really Work?

Well, that depends on what you mean by “work.” Will it help to sculpt your body and replace a healthy diet and regular exercise? Definitely not. Will it make you lose weight? Nope, it does not work like that either. What it will do, however, is reduce small amounts of fat in the most stubborn areas.

It does actually work, and there’s good science and results from research case studies behind it. If you reduce the temperature of fat to a certain degree, cells go into what’s called apoptosis (fat cell death), which means they kill themselves and your body digests its by-products. The magic of it is you’re cooling down the skin to a temperature where it hurts the fat, but it doesn’t hurt the skin, and that’s why it works so well as an effective fat reduction treatment. 

CoolSculpting and other forms of cryolipolysis have a high success rate. They are effective for removing areas of fat from the body, and have fewer side effects than other procedures, such as liposuction. Though this procedure can remove areas of fat, it is not a miracle cure, and people should not expect to see a complete removal of fat. The procedure will not work for everybody, and some people may experience worse side effects than others. 

Who is a Good or Ideal Candidate for Fat Freezing?

Fat freezing, or cryolipolysis, has become increasingly popular as a non-invasive way to lose pockets of fat without needles, knives, or significant downtime. But, as with any medical procedure, it’s not for everyone.

You should be near your ideal body weight

The ideal candidate for fat freezing is someone who is at or near their ideal body weight but has stubborn pockets of fat that won’t go away with diet and exercise. Cryolipolysis is not a weight loss treatment and should not be used as a substitute for healthy habits.

You should have pinchable fat

Fat freezing is best suited for people with pinchable fat, which means that the fat can be easily grabbed between two fingers. This type of fat tends to respond well to cryolipolysis. However, individuals with large amounts of visceral fat, which is fat that surrounds the organs and is not pinchable, are not good candidates for the procedure.

You should not have certain medical conditions

It’s important to note that cryolipolysis is not recommended for people with certain medical conditions, such as cryoglobulinemia, cold agglutinin disease, or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria. It’s also not recommended for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Always Consult a Doctor When Uncertain

In summary, the ideal candidate for fat freezing is someone who is at or near their ideal body weight but has stubborn pockets of pinchable fat that won’t go away with diet and exercise. It’s important to consult with a qualified healthcare provider to determine if you are a good candidate for cryolipolysis and to discuss any potential risks or complications.

What’s the Run Down on Body Fats?

Let’s start with the basics. Not all fat is created equal. We have two distinct types of fat in our bodies: subcutaneous fat (the kind that may roll over the waistband of your pants) and visceral fat (the stuff that lines your organs and is associated with diabetes and heart disease). A recent study showed that the body’s ability to remove subcutaneous fat decreases with age, which means we are fighting an uphill battle with each birthday we celebrate. 

Men tend to have a lower body fat percentage than women due to differences in their body composition. On average, men have more lean tissue and less fat than women. Furthermore, the ideal body fat percentage also differs based on age. For example, a healthy body fat percentage for a man in his 20s is around 15-20%, while a healthy body fat percentage for a man in his 60s is around 23-26%.

Does fat freezing tighten loose skin?

Well, kind of, but not really. While there is a natural contraction that occurs when you remove fat with any treatment, there’s nothing specific about the CoolSculpting technology that causes skin tightening . There are treatments using radio frequency to heat the skin to tighten it, such as Wellaholic’s WellaSculpt. But CoolSculpting does not have that. Lifestyle and other factors may also play a role. A person who continues to eat an unhealthful diet and remains sedentary while undergoing CoolSculpting can expect less fat reduction.

How is the cryolipolysis procedure like? 

Cryolipolysis isn’t surgery and doesn’t use needles. The device holds the part of your body your doctor wants to target between two paddles. The paddles cool quickly and your doctor leaves them in place for about 35 minutes to 1 hour and 15 minutes. During that time, the process destroys about 20%-25% of the fat cells in the area that’s targeted. 

At Wellaholic, we offer the traditional fat freezing machines with probes that contain two paddles. We also have our revolutionary WellaFreeze 360, which is the top-range, best-performing cryolipolysis machine. WellaFreeze 360 increase absolute fat removal by up to 19% more (in addition to the usual 14% to 28% fat reduction from each session). Also painless and no downtime; the body will naturally dispose dead fat cells. What’s special about WellaFreeze 360 is that up to 4 probes or applicators can be used concurrently at one session (as short as 30 minutes due to its efficiency and effectiveness) hence saving both time and money for the patient. 

How many treatments does it take to see results from fat freezing? 

It often takes a few treatments to get to your optimum results. A single treatment will yield very minimal change, sometimes imperceptible to clients. One of the downsides of [CoolSculpting] is there’s a range for any one person. All hope is not lost, however, because both experts agree that the more treatments you have, the more results you will see. What will happen eventually is an up to 25 percent fat reduction in a treatment area. At best you get mild fat reduction a slightly improved waistline, less bulging of any particular area that’s concerning.
