Fat Freezing Machine

Procedure

A standard procedure for fat freezing includes:

1. Cleansing the skin before treatment;
2. Applying an anti-freezing membrane during the treatment;
3. Cleaning the skin after the treatment.

Freezing away fat is a good choice for people with small areas of fat they want to reduce, like on the stomach, sides, waist, arms, or buttocks. Depending on how thick the fat is and the desired results, you'll probably need 1 to 3 treatments, with at least 30 days between each.

The fat-freezing machine safely removes stubborn fat without surgery or recovery time. It uses targeted colds to kill fat cells without hurting the skin. Freezing fat makes the fat cells die off at very low temperatures. Then, over the next 2 to 3 months, your body removes these dead fat cells. You can see up to 25% less fat in just one treatment. You can have the treatment again in 4 to 6 weeks to get even better results.

The detailed treatment steps are as follows.

Start with a physical assessment to evaluate your physical condition and identify target areas for treatment. Once the areas have been identified, mark them accordingly. 

For each marked area, apply an anti-freezing membrane of the appropriate size to prevent frostbite. Once the membrane is in place, position the cryo handpiece on the targeted area. The handpiece will immediately draw in the treatment area, initiating the cryotherapy process. 

Initially, you may experience a tingling sensation, but it will subside after a few minutes, making the treatment more comfortable. 

After 30-45 minutes of cryotherapy, the treatment is completed. Finish with a gentle 3-5 minute massage on the treated area for relaxation.

A single cryolipolysis session can kill 20% to 30% of the fat cells in the target area. Over time, apoptotic fat cells can be eliminated from the body through metabolism, resulting in a healthier and more beautiful body curve.

The times of the treatments:

Generally, 1-3 times are required with a minimum interval of 30 days between each time. The total duration of each treatment is within 30-45 minutes, depending on the cooling site.

The feeling of the treatment:

You will experience a slight sucking sensation when the probe is attached to your body, a pulling sensation and a slight freezing sensation may be felt at the treatment site where the device is inhaled during the first few minutes of treatment, and a feeling of pain. These uncomfortable sensations will diminish as the treatment progresses and the treatment area is cooled and painless.

Temporary numbness may also occur in the treated area for one week after the procedure. The doctor will then massage the treated area to break down the treated fat cells and increase fat loss.

Types of Fat Freezing Machines

Different fat-freezing machines are designed for cryolipolysis, a non-invasive fat-reduction procedure. Some popular types and brands include CoolSculpting, Clatuu, SculpSure, and Zeltiq. 

There are different types of freezing devices on the market, each with unique characteristics.

The first type is a two-piece fat freezing machine called the "Vacuum Non 360 Fat Freezing Machine." It has freezing technology on only two sides of the handle and comes in two versions. The first version has a hard suction cup material, which can easily scratch the skin and is prone to leaking. The second version is made of soft silicone material, providing sufficient suction without damaging the skin and improving the treatment effect.

 VERSION 2

The second type is the 360-degree freezing machine, which has freezing technology on all sides, ensuring the destruction of stubborn fat in the treatment area for the best treatment effect. This device is also equipped with other beauty technologies such as cavitation, radio frequency, and lipo laser, offering maximum treatment effectiveness and cost-effectiveness.

The third type is the flat freezing machine, known as the "Non-vacuum Fat Freezing Machine." This type uses freezing technology to apply flat on the treatment area for cryolipolysis. Still, it only works on one side and cannot achieve 360-degree freezing. It must be used with tapes, which can be uncomfortable.

The fourth type is the multi-head freezer, represented by the Clatuu Alpha. Each part is equipped with a corresponding freezing head, allowing for the treatment of various body parts. This type is also a 360 freezing equipment.

Our recommendation is the second type "360 fat freezing machine, which offers an independent power supply and separate control operation system, making the operation more stable, safe, and energy-efficient. The freezing handle is made of soft silicone material. It has seven interchangeable sizes, providing a more comfortable operation experience. The instrument system adopts four channels and controls, allowing for more convenient, safe, and effective operation.

Fat Freezing Machine Treatment Areas

In adulthood, the number of fat cells is fixed, and the size of fat cells changes for a person's fat and thin. Whether exercise or dieting to lose weight, the main principle is that energy intake is less than energy expenditure.

Body fat is one of the energy reserves, and the fat fluid in fat cells is consumed. These weight loss methods can only shrink the fat cells as much as possible, and the cells themselves still exist but cannot reduce the number of cells. Therefore, the success rate of weight loss could be higher and difficult and easy to rebound.

An excessive number of fat cells or excessive expansion causes obesity in humans. The fat cell is widely distributed in the subcutaneous and visceral tissues. The number of human fat cells is fixed after puberty, and the fat cells that cause obesity will not increase or decrease once they are formed.

The fat-freezing machine is one of the best methods for fat reduction without rebound; you can use it for body sculpting wherever you want. The most significant advantage of fat freezing is that it can shape your body.

Chin, arms, abdomen, flanks, waist, back (where underwear is worn), accessory breasts, inner thighs, outer thighs, lower buttocks, back, male chest, and chest fat. These are the most commonly treated areas.

Side effects

Fat freezing, or cryolipolysis (CoolSculpting), is generally considered a safe and effective non-invasive fat reduction treatment. However, like any medical procedure, it can have side effects. Here are the common side effects associated with fat freezing:

• Bruising: The suction and cold temperatures can cause bruising in the treated area, which typically resolves within a few weeks.
• Swelling and Redness: The treated area may be swollen and red immediately after the procedure, lasting a few days to a few weeks.
• Pain and Stinging: Some patients report pain, stinging, or aching in the treated area during and after the procedure. This discomfort usually subsides within a few days.
• Skin Sensitivity: Treated areas may feel sensitive to touch or develop temporary numbness or tingling. This can last for a few weeks.
• Firmness: The treated area may feel firm or stiff due to the freezing process, which generally resolves over time.
• Itching: As the body eliminates the frozen fat cells, some patients may experience itching in the treated area.

Remember the following:

1. After the treatment, drink plenty of water to help your body get rid of the dead fat cells.
2. Eating healthily and exercising regularly is important to stop new fat cells from forming and maintain the results.
