Cryolipolysis, also known as cool sculpting, is a fat freezing method to reduce unwanted fat. Cryolipolysis is a non-surgical procedure to remove unwanted fat from certain parts of the body without harming any surrounding tissues or muscles. This procedure is not intended for weight loss, it only removes those fat deposits or bulges that do not respond to diet and exercise.

How is cryolipolysis done?

Cryolipolysis treatment in Jalandhar is performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist. It is a non-invasive treatment and does not involve any incision. In this procedure, the doctor uses a device called an applicator to freeze the fat cells. A gel pad is also applied to the area to protect the skin from getting damaged. After freezing the fat deposits, the doctor breaks down the fat cells by using a massager device or by hand massage. After the breaking down of frozen cells, the fat bulges are vacuumed into the hollow opening of the applicator.
