As a non-invasive aesthetic treatment, cryolipolysis uses cold to destroy adipocytes and thus reduce subcutaneous fat. This revolutionary procedure is gaining more and more followers. With many proved results, it has attracted the attention of some of the best doctors and practitioners around the world.
Fat freeze in Singapore
Cryolipoliys and coolsculpting are the best non-invasive techniques (no anaesthesia, no scar, no needle) aiming to attack, by cold, localized subcutaneous fatty areas.
This non-surgical fat reduction helps to sculpt a new body contouring, based on the cryo-adipo-apoptosis phenomenon.
Singapore is now of the most advanced cosmetic and aesthetic hubs in Asia and the rest of the world, with a whole community of local and international doctors and experts, using the best cosmetic and aesthetic procedures.
By cooling the hypodermis, the fats contained in the adipocytes (the fat storage cells) crystallize. The adipocytes would then receive a signal of apoptosis (programmed death of the cells) and would destroy themselves in the following weeks.
Cambridge Therapeutics uses Cryolipolysis and fat freeze in Singapore to treat all areas of the body that have localized fatty deposits that resist diets and physical activity.
How does it work?
Cryolipolysis consists of destroying fat by cold, in a non-invasive way (no surgery, no anaesthesia, no needle, no skin break-in and therefore no scars). It is practical and secure for overcoming localized fatty deposits resistant to diets and physical activity, whether in men or women. Still, the effectiveness of Cryolipolysis is more limited than that of actual liposuction, but it is the best non-intrusive treatment.
Cryolipolysis works on a simple principle that has been known for a long time: fat is more sensitive than other tissues to exposure to cold.
The technique of cryolipolysis combines aspiration, using a handpiece that works like a suction cup, and a heat absorption at the skin in contact with a plaque called Peltier. The accumulated fat is removed while producing heat and without residue.
The procedure of fat freezing Singapore is articulated over four steps:
- Aspiration of the bead and fat cells
- Controlled cold destroys fat
- The fat is eliminated, and the bead disappears
- The bead is fully reduced
Which parts of the body can be treated?
Cryolipolysis treats all areas of the body with a localized fatty bead. But on the other hand, certain zones have better results:
- Abdomen
- Love handles
- Saddlebags fat
Efficacy of Cryolipolysis
The results are visible from the first session and are evolving over three months the time required for the body to evacuate fats destroyed by natural routes. The results are final after three months.
After one month, the effects of the treatment are evaluated, and it is at the end of this control that you decide whether it is necessary or not to renew the session. Depending on the thickness of the fat and the expected results, it usually takes between 1 and 3 sessions.
The success of the intervention will depend on the quantity of fat, the ease of aspiration, as well as on the susceptibility of the fat to get exposed to cold.
The amount of fat must not be too low (<2cm) for the differential to be significant, nor too large (> 6cm) to be useful. The ideal patient profile is one who has difficulty losing fat from specific areas despite an adapted diet and sports activity.
Should Cryolipolysis be performed by a doctor?
The cryolipolysis technique is not exclusively reserved for the medical profession. There is no law prohibiting an aesthetician or a physiotherapist from performing cryolipolysis. Still, you should always choose some well-known clinics and experts when doing a fat-freezing procedure in Singapore.
Consultation before resorting to cryolipolysis
The doctor begins by explaining the principle of Coolsculpting and Cryolipolysis and defines with you the area (s) to be treated. He then performs a medical check-up: morphological data, skin characteristics, condition of the area to be treated, fat volume, etc.
You must ensure that there are no contraindications to this intervention (pregnancy, significant overweight, pathologies linked to cold). It will also specify the achievable objectives for the area to be treated and the number of planned sessions.
These indications will take into account the age, lifestyle, weight of the woman; then he will you a personalized plan for your treatment.
Many slimming treatments inspired by cryolipolysis are sold on the internet and in stores. But, be careful to choose creams, where clinical studies have been done to prove the effectiveness of the products.
Indeed, if you take care of where the results have not been shown, you may be greatly disappointed. You may not even notice a loss of any centimetres of fat. After several studies, we can say that only the treatments operated in clinics can be recommended. They also offer dermatological control.
Then you can support the procedure with some of the fat freezing products and gels advised by your doctor, the ones that have been clinically tested.
Cryolipolysis aftercare
You should mostly monitor your diet during and after cryolipolysis. The technique only reduces the thickness of adipose tissue by 30 to 40%, and the result is progressive. The cold causes weakening of the membranes of the fat cells. Then, the released lipids are eliminated naturally by the lymphatic system, in two to three months. During this whole period, you have to be extremely careful about what you eat (fats, sugars, etc.).
Move after your fat freezing procedure
To accompany the elimination of lipids during the two to three months following the cryolipolysis session, you should walk a lot to stimulate the lymphatic system (mostly the day after the session). The more amplitude the movements, the better. Nordic walking is therefore particularly recommended in this regard, as are exercises in the water, aqua-gym or aqua-biking type.
Massaging to eliminate fat cells better
To activate the venous and lymphatic circulation, and to favour the elimination of fat cells, it is recommended to practice five minutes of massage, palpate, and roll over the treated area, at least for 15 days.
If you do not do this massage, no worries, your body will always end up eliminating what is needed. But it's still better to accompany the aftercare with a good massage of the treated areas.
