Non-surgical fat removal for stubborn areas
This new technology is highly effective for localized fat deposits up to 5cm deep. The fat cells are frozen, broken down and disposed of without damaging the surrounding tissue. Cryolipolysis is often used on arms, legs, double chin and love handles. The treatment is not dangerous and virtually painless. Because we have the latest equipment at Mio Corpo, a session takes only 45 minutes. We freeze the fat cells down to -10 °C.
Its action is based on the scientific finding. This causes fat cells to crystallize and die upon hypothermia. On average, a client can expect 10 to 15% local fat reduction per treatment. This corresponds to 3 to 5 cm in circumference per treatment. It is recommended to have the treatments 2 to 3 times to get the best results.
Fat freezing falls under non-invasive aesthetic medicine. Therefore, there is no recovery period.
