Freeze away stubborn fat without surgery
Cryolipolysis (Fat Freezing) in Garfield, NJ
A non-invasive fat reduction treatment that uses controlled cooling to freeze and eliminate stubborn fat cells without surgery or downtime. Treated fat cells are naturally processed and eliminated by the body over the following weeks.
About This Treatment
Here is something most people do not know: fat cells are more vulnerable to cold than the tissue around them. Cryolipolysis exploits this biological fact to eliminate stubborn fat deposits without surgery, needles, or downtime, and the results are permanent.
The principle is straightforward. By applying controlled cooling to a specific area, the treatment targets fat cells exclusively. By applying controlled cooling to a specific area, cryolipolysis triggers a process called apoptosis (programmed cell death) in the fat cells while leaving skin, muscle, and nerves completely unharmed. Over the following 8 to 12 weeks, your body naturally processes and eliminates the damaged fat cells through the lymphatic system.
The fat cells that are eliminated do not regenerate, making the results permanent as long as you maintain a stable weight. Clinical studies demonstrate an average fat reduction of 20 to 25 percent in the treated area after a single session.
Key Benefits
- Non-invasive
- Permanent fat loss
- No downtime
Ideal For
Cryolipolysis is best suited for clients who are close to their ideal weight but have specific pockets of fat that do not respond to healthy eating and regular exercise. Common treatment areas include the lower abdomen, love handles, inner and outer thighs, upper arms, and the double chin area.
What to Expect
A gel pad is placed on the treatment area to protect the skin, and the cryolipolysis applicator is positioned over the fat deposit. You will feel intense cold and a pulling sensation for the first few minutes, which subsides as the area numbs. Most clients read, scroll through their phone, or relax during the session. After the applicator is removed, Cristina performs a brief massage on the treated area to enhance fat cell disruption. There is no downtime, and you can resume all normal activities immediately.
Session Duration
35-60 minutes per area
