ZLipo Fat Freezing

Do you have stubborn fat (in the belly, arms, and thighs) that won’t seem to go away despite your fitness efforts? Fat freezing by ZLipo uses cold temperatures to target and permanently kill fat cells in trouble areas. It is designed to minimize stubborn fat bulges or deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise, helping you achieve your dream figure without cuts or needles.

What is ZLipo?

Made in Germany by Zimmer Aesthetics, ZLipo is a non-surgical fat reduction treatment that uses Cryolipolysis (fat freezing). It is safe and effective for treating localized fat bulges and can reduce an area’s fat layer thickness without cuts, needles, or longer downtime.

ZLipo has 360° applicators that let you contour and sculpt problem areas with great results and shorter treatment time. These are available in 3 sizes: small, medium, and mini. The small handpiece has a straight supporting edge, while the medium handpiece has a curved one. The mini one is a handpiece specially designed for smaller areas of fat in the chin, knees, and underarms.

Key benefits of 360° handpieces include:

• Full 360°cooling – the entire skin is cooled and treated (instead of just the sides)
• Enlarged treatment area – the full cup is cooled and hence the larger handpiece surface targets more fat cells and skin surface.
• Shorter treatment time – procedure duration is now reduced from one hour to just 35 minutes.
• More comfortable vacuum – the suction is dispersed throughout the handpiece, not just in a single area which results in a gentler vacuum experience
• Two treatments simultaneously – ZLipo is able to treat and freeze away stubborn fat in two areas at the same time.

How does ZLipo work? 

ZLipo cools down fat deposits over a prolonged period in a safe and controlled manner. It starts with a pulsed vacuum suctioning to further break down the fat cells before the actual fat freezing begins. This brings positive effects on lymphatic drainage and metabolism.

Fat has a different freezing point than surrounding tissue and skin. The cold treatment from ZLipo causes apoptosis or natural cell death without damaging the surrounding skin. The complete breakdown and the natural removal of fat cells through the lymphatic system takes about 10 to 12 weeks.

FAQs

 What are the treatable areas?

Common treatment areas include:

• Abdomen
• Hips
• Waist
• Thighs
• Buttocks
• Flabby arms
• Chest
• Double chin

 Is ZLipo painful?

You may feel a slight pinching in the first few minutes of the treatment, but this is completely harmless. A cooling fleece is placed on the treatment area to protect the skin and avoid damage.

 How long does the result of ZLipo last?

Fat cells are naturally processed and permanently removed from the body. They are gone for good, leaving you with slimmer or a more contoured treatment area. The remaining fat cells, however, can grow and expand if you fail to maintain good lifestyle habits.

Are there any side effects or downtime?

ZLipo has virtually no side effects. You can experience some redness or slight tenderness on the treated area, but this typically heals within a week. Some report a feeling that resembles normal muscle soreness, but can go back to their normal routines almost immediately.

 How many ZLipo sessions do you need?

This depends on a number of factors, such as:

• Your individual profile (the size or the area amount of fat reduction needed)
• The way your body responds to fat freezing
• Your needs, goals, and expectations

 How long before results are visible?

Some patients notice changes/improvements after 3 weeks, but significant results are usually seen after 3 to 4 months.

 Who is an ideal candidate for ZLipo fat freezing?

Good candidates are patients who are within their ideal or normal weight but have excess, pinchable fat on certain areas of the body. ZLipo is also worth considering if you’re looking to reduce diet- and exercise-resistant fat without going under the knife.
