On Consultation
Fat freezing, also known as cryolipolysis, is a non-invasive body contouring procedure that targets and eliminates stubborn fat cells without surgery. At SkinInspire, we utilise the advanced MICOOL-A™ system to deliver effective fat reduction treatments, helping you achieve a more sculpted and toned appearance.
Fat freezing with the MICOOL-A™ system is ideal for those who are close to their ideal body weight but struggle with localised fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. Common treatment areas include the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, and chin. This procedure is suitable for both men and women looking to refine their body contours and improve their overall silhouette.
Consultation: The journey begins with a thorough consultation at skinInspire, where our experienced practitioners assess your needs, goals, and suitability for the procedure. A personalised treatment plan is then developed.
Preparation: On the day of the treatment, the targeted area is marked, and a protective gel pad is applied to safeguard the skin during the procedure.
Application: The MICOOL-A™ applicator is positioned over the treatment area. This device uses a vacuum mechanism to gently pull the fatty tissue into the applicator cup, ensuring precise targeting.
Cooling: Controlled cooling is delivered to the fat cells beneath the skin. The MICOOL-A™ system cools the fat to a temperature that triggers apoptosis (natural cell death) without harming the surrounding tissues. This phase typically lasts around 30-60 minutes per treatment area.
Post-Treatment: After the cooling cycle is complete, the applicator is removed, and the area is massaged to enhance fat breakdown. Patients can usually return to their normal activities immediately after the session.
The MICOOL-A™ system stands out due to its innovative technology and design, ensuring a comfortable and effective treatment experience.
Precise Temperature Control: The system delivers consistent and controlled cooling to ensure optimal fat cell destruction while minimising discomfort and the risk of skin damage.
Versatility: The system comes with various applicator sizes and shapes, allowing for the treatment of different body areas with tailored precision.
Comfort: Designed with patient comfort in mind, the MICOOL-A™ system minimises discomfort and downtime, making the fat freezing process as pleasant as possible.
Fat freezing with the MICOOL-A™ system leads to gradual fat reduction over the course of several weeks to months. Patients typically start to see changes as early as three weeks post-treatment, with the most significant results visible after two to three months. The body continues to flush out the dead fat cells for up to six months after the procedure.
While fat freezing significantly reduces the number of fat cells in the treated area, it is essential to maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle to preserve the results. The treatment is not a substitute for weight loss but a method to contour and shape the body where fat persists despite a healthy diet and regular exercise.
