Cryolipolysis - reviews and benefits

The problem of obesity began to take shape of the epidemic in recent times. For many reasons, people are overweight, with whom they are not able to fight on their own at home. Therefore, they have to look for more radical ways of correcting the figure, one of which is cryolipolysis.

Modern methods of combating obesity have reached a new level. It turns out that not only warming procedures can be used to burn fat cells. Very effective and the use of cooling methods, or rather, freezing.

The newest method developed by researchers at the Harvard Institute of Medicine shows impressive results. It is called cryolipolysis. Reviews about it are still ambiguous, as this technology only recently began to appear in our country (as well as in the world). It formed the basis for the invention of the ZELTIQ device, which allows to lower the temperature of a specific area of fat under the skin to a certain level and keep it for one hour. So much time is required to activate natural processes of volume reduction and fat cell death as a result of lack of normal nutrition. Such a physiological process occurs over a period of 60 to 90 days. As a result, the number of fat cells in the site of exposure in one session is reduced by 20-30%, resulting in a natural loss of part of the fat fold.

Cryolipolysis, reviews of which do not yet allow to create a unified picture of consumers' opinions, the procedure is non-invasive, that is - atraumatic. During the session, the doctors place a small, suction-like apparatus (a vacuum applicator) on the patient's skin, which cools the subcutaneous fat to the state of freezing. Between the skin and the applicator a special substrate is laid to protect the skin from hypothermia and ensure uniformity of lipolysis. The applicator draws in itself a fat fold (with the help of vacuum) and cools it. During the procedure, there is no unpleasant sensations, only a slight coolness is felt. In view of the fact that the vacuum is constantly maintained in the apparatus, cooling is not local, but influences the entire thickness of the fold. The number of procedures depends on the wishes of the patient and the thickness of fatty subcutaneous tissue - from one to three. The frequency between sessions is 1.5 months.

Such a procedure as cryolipolysis (feedback about it is left both positive and negative) is strictly controlled by specialists. The process is good because during it there is no physical violent destruction of adipose tissue. Everything is done with the help of natural functions of the human body. This suggests that there are no side effects that can occur during surgery and injection methods: swelling, pain, bruising, and this procedure is completely painless. This method does not exercise a load on the liver, since it does not release lipolysis products into the bloodstream. Another significant advantage is that the process occurs without the use of pharmacological drugs, and therefore completely excludes the possibility of allergies.

Nevertheless, for all its positive qualities, cryolipolysis also has contraindications. These are possible disorders of blood circulation due to exposure to low temperatures, increased sensitivity to cold, causing pain, inflammation, trauma, hemorrhages on the body, use of anticoagulants, skin diseases.

If you are thinking about going to cryolipolysis, reviews of this procedure should still be read before deciding. After all, they are written by people who have already experienced this method. In addition, you should always consult with a specialist.
