Common myths
about cryolipolysis
Myth 3

instantly
Myth 1
Cryolipolysis is a method how to
fight obesity
Very common and mistaken viewpoint related to
this procedure. Cryolipolysis is simply the tool for
non-surgical removal of local stubborn fat deposits,
the so-called fat traps in problem areas, for exam-
ple, belly, arms, side of the belly, thighs. This treat-
ment allows leveling the thickness of the subcuta-
neous fatty tissue, and smooth out the relief, where
there is too much fat, there are irregularities or
dimples. If you just want to lose weight to longed-
for 5-10-15 and so on kilograms, then you do not
need to undergo the procedure, but join the gym.
Myth 2
It is designed to remove
sagging skin
The effect of cryolypolysis concerns mainly fat re-
duction under the skin and does not affect upper
layer of the skin. Therefore it will not improve sag-
ging skin. This can be addressed either by Ther-
mage Radiofrequency Therapy (see page 11) or Ul-
traformer III ultrasonic lifting. However, if you have
good skin elasticity, it might naturally shrink and
adjust to contouring body as the fat cells are slowly
eliminating.
Do not expect im-
mediate results. Zel-
tiq Coolsculpting is a
non-surgical method
and does not extract
fat cells like liposuc-
tion. It freezes them
and then body flushes
them naturally. The ef-
fect will start to show
gradually. The first results are noticeable after 3
weeks; however, the impact is the greatest after 2
months and will continue to grow six months after
the treatment. Moreover, your transformation will
look natural and unlike surgical methods, doesn’t
involve scarring.
Myth 4
It is not safe
Zeltiq Coolsculpting was approved by FDA (Food
and Drug Administration), which means it was
tested to be safe and effective. There are reports
from patients to be burnt, scarred without an ef-
fect, but bare in mind, there are lots of unqualified
practitioners and uncertified machines trying to
catch you on bargain prices.
Myth 5
It is only suitable to target
the fat in the stomach
Cryolipolysis is very flexible and although it works
very well in the belly area, in addition, it efficaciously
contours love handles, muffin tops, arms or thighs.
Regardless of the body area, Coolsculpting targets
and cools fat cells to temperatures that trigger
their natural death. The fat cells crystallize, begin
to shrink, weaken, die and are naturally eliminated
through body’s own metabolic system.
