Fat Freezing

Also known by its technological name, Cryolipolysis, Fat Freezing is clinically proven to break down fat cells, resulting in a 20-40% reduction of body fat in the areas treated without damaging the surrounding tissues and is 3 times more effective than traditional fat freezing.

Best for stubborn pockets of fat. 360 Fat Freezing is a unique non-invasive treatment using a combination of electro and cryo therapy and the cooling plate goes all the way around the handpiece.

Using the Fat Freezing handpiece, this creates vacuum which draws the fat into the handpiece. This localised area within the handpiece is then frozen, causing 20% – 40% of the fat cells in that area to die.

Many clients lose several inches after the completion of their treatments.

No Downtime

Fat Freezing does not require any period of recovery afterwards, you can go about your daily life as normal straight afterwards

Clinically Proven Results

Up to 40% of the fat in the treated area reduced. Results visible from 3 week and continue developing over 6 months gradually changing your body shape.

Non-Invasive

360 Fat Freezing is a non surgical treatment.

When fat cells are exposed to extreme cold, a process of natural removal is triggered, which gradually reduces the thickness of the fat layer. The result is a visible reduction in fat bulges. Exclusive to fat freezing is the concept of “cryolipolysis”, which is based on the principle that fat cells will die at a low temperature that leaves the surrounding tissue unaffected.

Fat Cells exposed to the cold temperatures are destroyed and are processed through your body’s own natural waste system. 

Once the fat cells are destroyed by the fat freezing procedure, they are destroyed forever and removed from your body using your body’s waste system. These fat cells will not grow back. However, if you gain weight, it is possible that your body can produce new fat cells in the area. This is why we advise clients to maintain a healthy lifestyle after treatment.

We can treat a wide range of areas with fat freezing from the smallest area under your chin, all the way up to the largest area of your abdomen.

An area is wherever we can fit one fat freezing applicator handle onto your body.

For example:

  • Lower Abdomen – 1 area
  • Upper Abdomen – 1 area
  • Love Handles – 2 areas (1 per side)
  • Inner Thighs – 2 areas (1 per thigh)
  • Outer Thighs – 2 areas (1 per thigh)
  • Banana Roll (Under Bum) – 2 areas
