Cryolipolysis: The Truth Behind This Innovative Technology

It's time to shed some light on this highly popular procedure in the world of aesthetic medicine. 

Here are some truths and myths to debunk:


1. ”The Machine Helps You Lose Weight" - MYTH
Cryolipolysis is not a body weight loss treatment. It is designed to reduce localized fat in specific areas of the body. If you have stubborn fat that doesn't seem to go away despite diet and exercise, cryolipolysis may be an effective solution for you.

2. ”Not Everyone Can Undergo the Procedure" - TRUE
There are some cases where the treatment cannot be performed. These include people who are overweight, have an abdominal hernia or diastasis, suffer from Raynaud's disease, have very compact localized fat, as well as pregnant and breastfeeding women. It is important to have a consultation before proceeding with the treatment.

3. ”I Will Feel Pain" - MYTH
One of the main advantages of cryolipolysis is that it is generally a painless treatment. The only discomfort you may experience is from the intense suction generated by the device, but this is temporary and usually goes away during the session. In some cases, the treated area may be slightly sore.

4. ”There Can Be Side Effects" - TRUE
While rare, there are some possible side effects of cryolipolysis. These include the appearance of some bruising, itching, or soreness in the treated area in the days following the session. However, these symptoms usually go away on their own within a few days.

5. ”The Treatment Eliminates Sagging Skin and Cellulite" - MYTH
Cryolipolysis is not designed to treat skin laxity or cellulite, it acts exclusively on localized fat. In fact, it is not recommended in case of significant skin laxity!
