How can fat freezing help you?
With celebrities such as Jennifer Anniston, Khloe Kardashian, and Mariah Carey having used fat freezing, also known as CoolSculpting or cryolipolysis, there may be a misconception that this treatment is only for the rich and famous. However, this couldn’t be further from the truth, and many cosmetic clinics offer this treatment every day.
So how can it help you? To provide some more information on this treatment and help understand exactly how it works, we have partnered with Aesthetics Lab, an award-winning cosmetic clinic based in London that offers fat freezing along with a variety of other treatments.
How it works
When we read about the celebrities mentioned above and others who may have had treatment such as fat freezing carried out, it can be hard to understand precisely what goes into it. As you may have guessed from its name, this treatment is based on controlled cooling in specific areas of the body that have a build-up of fat cells.
As fat cells are extremely sensitive to cold temperatures, and by using controlled cooling in specific areas, these cells can be crystalised. This causes the fat cells to die, and your body will then naturally remove them from your system.
How it’s different to other options
The main difference between fat freezing and treatment like liposuction is the fact that the former is non-invasive. This means that no cuts need to be made in the skin, which could lead to scarring or marks later in life. Jennifer Aniston specifically highlighted the fact that this treatment was non-invasive as a reason why she liked it so much.
Benefits to you
So, what are the benefits of fat freezing? Well, as mentioned above, it’s a non-invasive procedure, so no scars or marks will be seen on your skin. The other benefit to this is that, unlike invasive procedures which require recovery time, there is no recovery time needed following a treatment session. You can go about your day as normal, making it ideal for people with busy lifestyles.
While fat freezing is not a weight loss treatment, and no clinic should be advertising it as such, it can have an impact on the way your body looks. However, as the removal of the frozen fat cells is a natural process carried out by your body, which takes place over the days and weeks after your treatment, it has the benefit of appearing gradual rather than drastic.
Another key benefit to fat freezing is its adaptability. We are all different and individual, meaning we all have different areas where we may wish to target fat freezing. This could be our stomach, chin, back or legs, and this is possible because the process is non-invasive. Thanks to this, it allows anyone to be treated and experience the benefits.
It’s not hard to see why many celebrities look at fat freezing as a go-to treatment. It’s important to remember that this is a treatment that should only be carried out by experienced professionals. Before having any treatment session, you should speak with the clinic carrying out the treatment to discuss everything further and understand if this is right for you.
