If you’ve been considering fat freezing to tackle those stubborn pockets of fat that won’t shift with diet and exercise, you’ve probably got one burning question on your mind: is it actually safe?
It’s a fair concern. After all, the idea of freezing your fat cells might sound a bit intense. But here’s the good news: cryolipolysis, also known as fat freezing, is a proven, non-surgical alternative to liposuction that safely targets fat without damaging your body.
Let’s break down exactly how fat freezing keeps you safe while delivering real results.
The Science Behind Safe Fat Freezing
Fat freezing works on a simple but clever principle: fat cells can’t withstand temperatures below -4 degrees Celsius. When exposed to these controlled cold temperatures, the fat cells undergo a natural death process called apoptosis. Here’s what makes this safe: the extreme low temperatures only affect the fat cells themselves, without causing any damage to the surrounding tissue or your skin’s surface.
Think of it like this. Your body is designed to handle cold in specific, targeted ways. Fat cells are particularly vulnerable to these temperatures, while your skin, muscles and other tissues remain completely unharmed. It’s a precise, controlled process using medical-grade technology.
What Makes Professional Fat Freezing Different?
Not all fat freezing treatments are created equal, and that’s where safety really matters. At Everybody Clinics, we use the specialised i-Sculpt® machine, which takes safety and effectiveness to the next level.
Our advanced technology uses 360-degree dual application to provide full and thorough coverage of your fat pocket, cooling it to -9 degrees Celsius. Because one size doesn’t fit all, our applicators come in different sizes, shapes and depths, sculpted specifically to your body and fat pockets. We even have specialised settings that factor in your sex, age and depth of fat.
This personalised approach means you’re getting treatment that’s tailored to your unique body, not a one-size-fits-all solution.
What to Expect During Treatment
Fat freezing is a non-surgical procedure, which means no cutting, no needles and no anaesthesia. Most people experience a cold sensation during treatment, but there’s no downtime afterwards. You can literally get back to your day straight away.
Results speak for themselves: up to 20-30% permanent fat reduction in the treated areas per session. We usually recommend 2-3 treatments per area, spaced 4 weeks apart, though this depends on your unique body composition.
Your Safety is Our Priority
