Introduction: What’s the Hype with Fat Freezing or Cryolipolysis? 

In my journey as an Aesthetic Director, I’ve encountered numerous beauty trends and treatments, each promising remarkable results. One such trend that has gained immense popularity is fat freezing, a non-invasive procedure aimed at reducing stubborn fat. As someone deeply immersed in the aesthetics industry, I believe it’s crucial to approach such trends with a discerning eye.

I’ll give a straightforward review of fat freezing based on my experience and research.

We’ll explore what fat freezing really entails, its effectiveness, and the science behind it.

The Science Behind Coolsculpting as a Fat Freeze Treatment

I’ve noticed an increased interest in Coolsculpting as a way to freeze fat, based on my years working in the aesthetics industry. This method, also known as cryolipolysis, operates on the principle proven by science that fat cells are more susceptible to cold temperatures than the surrounding tissues.

From what I’ve learned, both through academic channels and engagement with industry experts, Cryolipolysis involves using controlled cooling to target and crystallize fat cells. These cells, once crystallized, break down and are naturally processed and eliminated by the body, resulting in reduced fat layers.

What’s particularly interesting is how this process is non-invasive, involving no surgery or downtime. It’s a testament to the advancements in aesthetic technology, offering individuals a safer, yet effective alternative to traditional fat reduction methods.

The latest innovation in the fat freeze 360 probes increases the coverage area, meaning that you can freeze a larger surface area (37% more coverage) per probe

The Benefits of Fat Freezing Technology

One of the best things about fat freezing is that it doesn’t require any incisions or anaesthesia. This means you can say goodbye to the pain, downtime, and risks associated with traditional weight loss surgeries. Instead, you can sit back, relax, and let the cold do the work for you. It’s like giving your fat cells a little winter vacation!

Another great aspect of fat freezing is its ability to target specific areas of the body.

Whether you’re dealing with a muffin top, saddlebags, or bingo wings, fat freezing can help. It’s perfect for those stubborn spots that just won’t budge, no matter how much you diet and exercise. And the best part? The results can be long-lasting, so you can enjoy your new, sculpted body for years to come.

Just remember, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is key to preventing new fat cells from crashing the party in other areas. So, if you’re ready to give your fat the cold shoulder, come chat with me at Wellaholic, and let’s create a personalized treatment plan together!

The Risks of Coolsculpting Treatment Process

Have you ever experienced numbness or tingling after a fat freeze treatment? Don’t worry, it’s a common side effect that usually goes away on its own.

During the treatment, the targeted area is exposed to cold temperatures to freeze and destroy fat cells. This can cause temporary numbness or a tingly sensation, similar to when your foot falls asleep. In most cases, this feeling subsides within a few hours to a few days after the treatment.

I remember one of my clients, Sarah, who came in for a fat freeze treatment on her abdomen. After the session, she called me in a panic because her stomach felt numb and she couldn’t feel anything when she touched it. I reassured her that this was a normal reaction and that the sensation would gradually return over the next few days.

Sure enough, by her next appointment a week later, Sarah reported that the numbness had completely disappeared, and she was thrilled with the visible reduction in her stubborn belly fat. So if you experience some temporary numbness or tingling after your fat freeze treatment, just remember that it’s a sign the treatment is working its magic!

Usually, fat freezing costs between $600 and $1,500 for each session, and you may need a few treatment cycles to get to the desired body shape.

The Cost of Fat Freezing in Singapore 

Fat freezing, or cryolipolysis, is a non-invasive technology that destroys fat cells by cooling them. The treatment has become more popular in recent years because of its efficiency and convenience. However, the price of fat freezing depends on various factors such as the ideal body weight, place, the clinic in Singapore, the area to be treated, and the number of sessions needed.

Cryolipolysis: Effective, But Is It Worth the Price?

Usually, fat freezing costs between $600 and $1,500 for each session, and you may need a few treatment cycles to get to the desired body shape. Cryolipolysis may sound pricey, but you should think about the long-term benefits and savings compared to other ways to lose fat like liposuction.

Also, some clinics may have payment plans or special offers to help you pay for the treatment. You should talk to a qualified professional to find out the best treatment plan and cost for your needs.

Table: Average Prices of Fat Freezing in Singapore

The prices for fat freezing treatments in Singapore vary among providers, with Wellaholic offering 2 handles for $219, Bio Aesthetic and Cosmo Aesthetic Clinic ranging from $300 to $700 per cup, and Ozhean Zoey Korean Aesthetic Clinic offering a full treatment from $1500 to $2000 and single area treatments starting around $300. This is based on Bing Search data in Dec 2023. Always contact the provider for the latest prices before making an appointment.

If you're looking for an effective way to get rid of stubborn pockets of fat, Coolsculpting is the answer. This innovative fat freezing technology has gained popularity in aesthetic clinics all over Singapore.

How to Overcome the Risks in Fat Freezing?

One of the most common side effects is delayed onset nerve pain. This can feel like tingling, stabbing, or shooting sensations in the treated area. It usually starts a few days after the procedure and can last anywhere from 3 to 11 days. While it can be uncomfortable, it’s a sign that your nerves are regenerating and isn’t typically a cause for concern.

To manage this pain, I recommend wearing compression garments and taking over-the-counter pain relievers like Tylenol. In some cases, your doctor may prescribe nerve medications. It’s important to talk to your provider if you experience any unusual or severe pain.

Remember, while CoolSculpting is generally safe, there are always risks with any cosmetic procedure. Be sure to do your research and choose a reputable provider to minimize complications and ensure the best results.
