With the holiday season around the corner, everybody is getting ready to show off their beach bodies. Booking a holiday can often put a large amount of pressure on you to get in shape, so that you can feel good about yourself when you’re wearing your bikini in front of strangers.
Many people don’t have enough time to keep up with a gruelling gym regime, but luckily there are different ways to attain the perfect beach body. Here at Aesthetic Skin Clinic, we pride ourselves on helping you reach your desired look.
One of the ways we achieve this is through non-surgical procedures such as Fat Freezing.
What is Fat Freezing?
This FDA approved medical treatment has been around since 2010, but has recently gained a lot more media attention. This is due to being rebranded from a minor spot treatment, to a non-invasive alternative to liposuction. The procedures use rounded paddles in one of four sizes to suction your skin and fat. While sat in a reclined chair for up to two hours, cooling panels are put to work, crystallizing your fat cells. You’ll experience suction and cooling sensations that eventually go numb.
The medical technology draws up and cools the body part that you want to treat, to a very low temperature without damaging the surrounding area. During the treatment, eight control sensors are optimising the settings to guarantee a safe treatment.
This treatment is available if you’re looking for an efficient body contouring treatment, or if you’re looking to remove stubborn and unwanted fat bulges. This generation of fat freezing uses the aerospace industries latest technology – guaranteeing safe and effective results.
Effects on the Body
As you are cooling unwanted fat cells, the fat freezing treatment triggers a natural simulation of cell death. This successfully treats localised fat pockets to improve the body’s contour, permanently removing fat cells from the treated area.
It will take a few sessions to get your optimum results, which will eventually result in a 25% fat reduction in the treatment area. Here at The Aesthetic Skin Clinic, we have a 95% patient satisfaction rate, so you can be happy knowing you are in safe hands.
It is recommended to schedule your session three months in advance to your holiday, six at the most. This is to experience the best results from your treatment, as results are not visible for at least four weeks. The fat loss reaches its peak at eight weeks, and by twelve, your skin is much smoother. It’s also suggested you need to wait six to eight weeks between appointments, so get your appointments booked earlier than later!
Who Is It For?
Fat Freezing is for individuals who are looking for mild improvements to their body. This treatment is not like liposuction where large amounts of fat are removed, it is ideal for those who have a problem area or smaller pocket of fat they wish to reduce.
There are several benefits of having fat freezing treatments that appeal to a lot of people. These include; the elimination of surgery, anaesthesia, and excessive recovery time.
