What Happens During Fat Freezing
Your practitioner places a specialist applicator over the area you want to change, and the tissue is drawn gently into a cooling cup. The fat layer beneath the skin is then held at precisely calibrated temperatures. Cold affects fat cells far more readily than it affects the tissues around them, so the fat cells crystallise and start to break down while your skin, nerves and muscle stay completely untouched.
From there, your own immune system does the work: over the next four to twelve weeks it clears the damaged fat cells away through the lymphatic system, leaving the treated area steadily slimmer and more defined. Flanks (love handles), the abdomen, inner and outer thighs and the area beneath the chin are the spots we treat most often. With no incisions and no anaesthesia involved, you can drive yourself home from our Glasgow clinic and get straight back to your day.
Why Clients Choose Fat Freezing
General weight loss shrinks fat everywhere except, it often seems, the places you care about. Fat Freezing works differently: it homes in on localised fat deposits that refuse to shift however carefully you eat or train, eliminating those fat cells selectively while leaving surrounding tissue alone — a noticeably better shape without the risks or downtime of surgical liposuction.
Because the change happens gradually, it reads as natural rather than sudden. A difference is usually apparent within three to four weeks, and the full result typically shows at around the three-month mark. Treated fat cells are gone for good — keep your weight stable and the outcome lasts.
