Cryolipolysis in Lehi, UT
Cryolipolysis, also known as “fat freezing”, is a non-invasive cooling of the body fat to break down the fat cells. Which results in a reduction of body fat without damaging any tissue or organs.
The procedure is designed to reduce localized fat deposits or bulges that do not respond to diet and exercise. However, effects of the treatment can take several months to be seen. 86% of our patients see amazing results within 3 months after the procedure.
During the procedure:
- A vacuum applicator will be placed on the skin, creating suction to bring the fat closer to the cooling panels.
- Patients will feel a cold sensation, which is the freezing of fat cells.
- Then the fat is cooled for 35-45 minutes.
- Once the procedure is done we will massage the area back to room temperature.
Frequently Asked Questions
It is great for getting bigger bulky areas, such as the abdomen, flanks, and back. A patient may see a reduction of fat within 20-40% in just one treatment.
There is some mild, temporary discomfort due to the initiation of strong suction and extreme cold. You may experience sensations of pulling, mild pinching, tingling or cramping. However, as the temperature falls, there is a numbing effect and most patients sit comfortably during the treatment reading, playing on their phone, or even napping.
Cryolipolysis is a contouring or sculpting procedure that modifies the distribution of fat cells to change the shape of your body. Results are not related to weight and it is not a weight loss solution.
Cryolipolysis is a tool to eliminate diet and exercise resistant fat pockets. The closer you are to your ideal body weight, the more you will see results. We recommend a healthy lifestyle that includes proper diet and exercise to augment and support your results.
Results may be seen as early as 1 to 3 months after treatment. You will initially experience some mild inflammation and swelling to the treated area. This should resolve within one to two weeks, then it will take another few weeks to see a noticeable difference. Full results from that session should be achieved within 12 weeks.
Many patients require more than one treatment session to achieve their desired results. So, we recommend scheduling a follow-up appointment 3 months after initial treatment to assess results and schedule future sessions, if needed.
